DBB Political Diversity

I've been reviewing a few posts put up lately.

Just wanted to say I am impressed by the DBB's political diversity, and savvy. I also wanted to say I am proud that that pilots of various ages and backgrounds are able to inflict their points of view against opponents here, on topics of the day -- and that they generally do so with decency and grace.

It's a good gig, living in America, yes? (Do I sound FRAUNCH to you?)

Hey you guys. Support your candidate (Kerry, Bush, Nader, or Ferno) on November 2, 2004, no matter what may come from outside influences between now and then. We owe it.

indeed

we often don't agree (edit, never) but at least we're not all total idiots.

Heh, if Ferno wins I want to be head of the Dept. of Agriculture cause I think we will be having a new cash crop down here in the lower forty!

Despite the diversity, it still leans republican--check the voting poll.

I was very happy to see Cuda voting for nader :)

there is little diversity here. it's polarized like the korean woman who won't stop calling me... TheCops can bring the good caulk.
:P :P :P

in fact i'll go you one further. i find it sad that with all the obviously intelligent people on this board the political debating seems very regurgitated. original thought is NOT the norm 'round here… it’s all gang banging… and it just shows you need "clan tags" to back yourself up. really sad.

i can read national political debates and platforms and see where the catalysts of most of the arguments stem from. but that’s the difference between “theorists” and people who live in the world.

GO BLUE TEAM!

yawn.
