Keep your political bullshit in DC and out of all other forums

As for threads that get started in the lounge that aren't about sports (even though "sports" are very political these days), I would be in favor of moving those very quickly. So if it's not about cleats in the turf (like the Whitlock topics tend to be anymore), it shouldn't be in the lounge.

JMO. And I'm more than willing to help in any way that I can.

I never bring politics to the Lounge unless it’s by mistake. I can’t count the number of times my football (or otherwise nonpolitical) posts are met with “why don’t you just go back to DC”. There’s a lot of mental weakness in the Lounge and that seems to include some of the moderators.

That's a sign of a weak person posting... We have a lot of them in our larger CP community...

Most people I disagree with in DC I get along with in the lounge for the most part.

I posted a helpful, informative comment about a movie in the Media section the other day and vailpass told me to go away and he called me a turd.

It was very upsetting.

Well, first off, it's because you're dumb as **** in regards to NFL football, followed by the fact that you're partisan hack that can't stop posting political horseshit wherever you go.

Oh, and the fact that you're dishonorable ****ing liar.

Your personal beef with him aside, patteeu is absolutely not dishonorable

In my 14 years here, I've quite literally never once seen him go on some profane, wild eyed rant like myself and many many others have... he strongly supports his opinions, but is never ever crude in any way about it

We don't always agree, but he is an excellent statesman that EITHER side of the aisle would be proud to have representing them

He is goaded into ugly fights all the time, and hasn't taken the bait in my 14 years here... drop this beef dude, and lets all take a long deep breath
