Hence, the new sig. Are they already jumping ship on Romney? One would think Pawlenty would have had a prime Cabinet position - if Mittens won.

Quote
Former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty is resigning as a national co-chairman of Republican Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign to lobby for the financial services industry.

The Financial Services Roundtable announced Thursday that Pawlenty will become its new president and chief executive officer on November 1.

The Financial Services Roundtable said in a press release that Pawlenty was stepping down from the campaign because the group is a bipartisan organization.

ouch.

Posting a current event is against forum rules?  In what gulag does that forum exist!

I don't know what this JPP, whatever the fuck forum is but how do you in the real world not make the right look bad?  It's like King Howey in a betting pool.  Skum is skum.  Fuckin Christ, smell the coffee.

It's not JPP. It's a forum called Political Forum. It's where lil Mike went when he ran away from when he couldn't handle consistently getting his ass handed to him on a platter by ekg. It got really sad at the end.

Now he's ensconsed in a huge forum with thousands of fellow conservative racist, bigoted, insane right wingers and worse. Think of a thousand Butchies and Icemans.

PF is a bit dysfunctional.  Hell, Hannity.com has better mods at this point.

Meanwhile, poor Pawlenty, like Huntsman, don't really belong to the GOP anymore.  It's moved on to weirdsville while they are relatively sane.

A bit? After three days I finally heard back from the mod who deleted the post. Here's the conversation. btw - He's one of the ones who banned me.

Me: OMFG. For the first time in 500 posts I forgot to put in the source and quote the comment. Excuse me. I'll remember to keep an eye out for infractions such as this for ya.

Why you closed my thread?

From your rules:

Quote
(8 ) Thread Creation:

THE OPENING POST OF A THREAD SETS THE TOPIC AND TONE OF THE DISCUSSION.

It should contain a member's opinions or questions with sufficient elaboration to establish a foundation for respectful discussion and debate. Threads should not be posted in the wrong forum, or be duplicates of other threads and/or topics (creating multiple threads with fundamentally the same topic is not allowed). Images, links, quotations, etc., should be used to support a member's opinion, not to replace it. Thread titles should be a description of the thread topic (and if not they may be altered by the moderators). Whether a thread has sufficiently set a basis for respectful debate on the thread topic will be at the discretion of the moderators.

That post, although short, contained all the necessary opinions and questions. The topic of the post is a current MSM topic, with speculation all over the place.

Is it any worse than this?

http://www.politicalforum.com/political-opinions-beliefs/267038-king-obama-crashes-wedding-leaves-cheap-gift-f-you.html

Try to lighten up, okay? Since I returned from the TWO MONTH ban, I've participated intelligently, lobbied no personal insults (although many have come my way).
try again with a link
no. try the thread again but with a link to the source, sorry I wasn't clear , Subby

One would assume the same attention to detail/standards is required of opposing views to yours?  I won't be surprised if you say he kind of...looks the other way...when it comes to that?

Not at all...this is, of course, the same place where a poster flat out told me I was a pedophile.

you can't..

but you can stop letting people see  things that do make them look bad.. like Fox news does..

and the place Howie is talking about is a place with 1000 "iceman" and "wrongo" and "Butchie" types..  it's a heavily (R) regulated place... I try to visit every now and then.. but only to play in the 'hey, what movie scared you the most' type threads because the polly threads are like reading Sarah Palin on meth..  HA!
