    Busted? Why not have a "Political" area unto itself... Separate but equal

    Like many idiots that came before me, I have fallen prey to the pointless political debates. Since they make me want to leave the forum altogether, I'll just avoid this part.

    I've learned that there are two points of discussion I avoid with people.....religion and politics.

    +1, beer thread, pho thread and the bum of the week. It's the dumb crap in NCR that made me leave the board the first time.

    Dude I had a big bowl of Beef Pho two days ago and it went right through me, Talk about instant enima,, Man it sucked cuz as soon as I hit the public bathroom some dude was knocking on the door, bout 3 minutes later he knocked again. When I opened the door to leave, he was still standing there As I passed him all I could think is, sorry man your not gonna like it in there. I kinda chuckled,,;o)

    Maybe just a food and drink forum? Or a food, drink, and T&A forum?

    Wow Ken. I thought we were cool like that. Pho isn't "just a food".

    Cigars are just thicker cigarettes

    As one of those idiots who's been sucked into the poli discussions way too often, I agree. The politics discussions are like rubber-necking auto accidents. Much as you want to avoid it you can't resist.

    Make politics its own forum separate from NCR and let the haters stew in their juices. Then, like other have said, turn NCR into a politics free "general interest" forum, with bums, b**bs and booze prominently featured. :)

    Seriously, I'd hate to see either of you cease to post in these discussions. I know, I know, it gets frustrating. But, I can't help but think that the only way to combat the idealogues and dogmatists is for people capable of seeing more than one side of an issue to hold their ground in the face of the onslaught of lunacy from the Right and the Left.

    When I was much younger, voting for Ronald Reagan and believing in newcomer Newt Gingrich, it seemed that in general it was the Leftists, I cannot call them Liberals, because they're not, but the Leftist movements were much less likely to look across the aisle and spot a good idea on the Right and support it just because it was a good idea. Enough Conservatives were willing to do so that we got things like Civil Rights legislation passed. Not so anymore. Any idea issuing from any source considered "Left" or "Liberal" receives no consideration from the Right at all, regardless of whether or not it's a good idea. This applies as well to consideration of bad ideas from conservatives, which are either defended as "necessary", or the bad outcomes are attributed to Obama, eg. : the collapse of the economy thanks primarily to de-regulation and the burden of the un-necessary war in Iraq, and the poorly executed war in Afghanistan.

    You two in particular, and a number of others on both sides of the fence here, have acquitted yourselves well in these discussions. We'll always have those who cannot see past the end of their party platform, or their favorite personality's carefully crafted and paid for "opinion".

    Also, I admit I've withheld from many of these discussions of late as well, it gets tiring trying to make a serious point only to be met with fallacies, red-herrings, and ad-hominem attacks. Still, our bond of cigars provides us with an eclectic group, very diverse opinions, many of them well thought out on both sides of the arguments. Don't give up completely.

    Oh, and we should also continue our efforts regarding Booze, B**bs, etc., because we can!

    A couple years ago, a friend made a Facebook post about the pointlessness of political/religious debate. Considering no one will ever change their mind from these debates, he thought they were therefore pointless. Someone else came along and cleared that up. The real point of the these "pointless" discussions is to realize that you are not alone in your thoughts. Finding support from others in your views is what really happens in these discussions. Let's face it, I'm not going to think W was a good president no matter how much anyone says otherwise. So there is a reason to have these debates, but not necessarily for the sake of the debate. I would feel more at home if it was less attack-based, however. Being called an idiot/illiterate/uneducated/naive/etc because of my views is just bullsh!t. Because of that, I will not waste my time with these discussions in the future. I will keep smoking cigars and drinking beer and sharing my thoughts on those subjects, however :)

    yea... actually i like it here alot. Thats the great thing about this place. If im having a long week, maybe dont get the time to smoke cigars or a pipe, i can still get on this forum and be a part. So I dont have any cool cigar stuff to talk about... I can always come on down th NCR and converse about anything. B@@bs, BBQ, Cars, Politics, Religon, Ex wifes, Children, Gardens, Sports, YOUR F'N Face, (J/K :), The Weather and a whole lot of other nonsense. Maybe we just need a bit thicker skin and not be upset about others opinions. So what... maybe my best buddy here likes blue... and I like green, Doesnt mean im going to personally hate you for it. just means im gonna give you chit cause i can, because friends can.

    Whew! Rock on wit yo bad selfs'

    Okay, to bring a totally different tangent, how come this site automatically "censors" certain words (for example, I once used the word *** as a name, not a vulgarity and it was asteriskicized), yet it somehow allow us to post photos of nearly naked women with no problem at all?

    Not that I'm complaining or anything. About the photos, I mean.
