Politics is also very controversial and more personal too than sports, but my thing is, what if someone wants to deliberately sabotage the thread? Should the regular responsible posters be punished? Kennethtogash *coughing fit* Ken is gone. I killed 'em. Yea me!

The reason I've been giving is that a Politics board wouldn't get as much activity as other boards. Also, since the majority of WF is kid friendly, the subject matter wouldn't appeal to the "masses".
I can't say I 100% agree, but what can I do?

I, myself, would be an independent. But I'd be lying if I didn't say I voted straight Dem last week.

I tend to vote republican, and I'd say I'm both conservative and moderate on some of the issues.

To be honest, I don't have a good answer for you. However, most of the people in the sports forum who post regularly, have come to an understanding with each other, and none of them take it personally. Also, this being in the Lounge, you have a much higher number of people visiting, and a generally younger group as well, not to mention more people from outside of the US. I also think sports of more often fact, rather than politics. It's a fact the Raiders suck, but whether or not Obama sucks is much more opinion related. It's not necessarily fair, but it's my answer. Yeah, but I can go in the sports board and call Lorenzo a bandwagon riding, Yankee apologists who can't see straight through his pinstripes and that's ok. Why can't I come on here and call Slappy a tree-hugging, bleeding heart, socialist/commie? I do not hug trees. The rest? Agreed.

I'm a fairly strong democrat. One thing that gets under my skin about republicans is their total blindness to the opposite party.
For example, during McCain concession speech, whenever the word "Obama" was mentioned, the crowd would boo and yell idiotic things out. Whilst during Obama's speech, whenever McCain was mentioned, a light round of applause or silence was given.
It's kinda scary to think that a chunk of America literally hate Obama.

Why can't we have a sub-board?

The country is pretty much 50/50. If McCain was elected, half the people would hate him too.

Why can't we have a sub-board? 1. It is not necessary. 2. Jack doesn't want to create any new boards.
