But in all honesty I could care less and people might have thought I was joking but we should merge it all back into the Lounge in the off-season and create some fun and chaos.  |
No, I knew that some small-minded, knee-jerk members might see it as political, but it was definitely not political. There wasn't a political thought, idea, or argument advanced in that OP at all, nor in any of my posts prior to the point at which the thread was moved to DC late that night.
And it doesn't matter whether Cheney is a politician or not (in fact, he's nothing but an aspiring author now). If Barack Obama were assassinated tomorrow (heaven forbid), the fact that he was a politician wouldn't mean that a news thread about the event shouldn't be posted here.
As for merging the forums for a couple of weeks, I think your idea is a good one. Of course, I think the forums should be merged permanently, but I realize that with all the newer posters who have no appreciation for the greatness of pre-split ChiefsPlanet, it would be pretty hard to overcome the natural resistance to change and what has become conventional wisdom around here.
