So we have a new home for all of our discussions surrounding the topics of politics and religion. Anyone else excited about this?
I'm going to be moderating this shindig, and I'll do my best to serve you all fairly. If you see something crop up that is a CoC violation let me know, I can't be everywhere all the time and so I'd like to continue the self-moderated feel we had at the other board.
So let the games begin. I'm looking forward to the primaries season that is forthcoming.

Great. RG is the PR mod and Benton is a mod in JN. What next; SSF the smack talk mod? Unlike the mid-terms, looks like the liberals won this election. At least I have 2016 to look forward to.

Saw this astute observation the other day regarding the primaries: in 2011 the GOP candidates for 2012 were referred to as "the clown car." This cycle they have bumped it up to "the clown bus."

I wish you bad luck, again, from time to time so that you will be conscious of the role of chance in life and understand that your success is not completely deserved and that the failure of others is not completely deserved either.

I believe Matt is a Jeffersonian Democrat, which would make him a liberal probably only in the classical sense.
But I could be remembering that incorrectly

My impression is that he is some things....
I don't have a problem with it..... It's a thankless job, especially in here.
The less moderating the better in here anyway.

Matt's about as middle of the road as you are gonna get anymore... which makes him a bleeding heart liberal in conservative eyes, eh.
Or maybe you are watching too much Faux News.

To top it all off, he's a Steelers fan, lol.
A Steeler fan who's a Mod on a Bengals Message Board.
We have truly crossed into the "Twilight Zone" staring a bunch of emo kids who want to be vampires and have ugly babies.

Yes. I recently saw Fox do a segment on RG; that formed my opinion.
I do not disagree that he is about as level-headed as you could expect from a liberal; however, his thread started about Jeb Bush, might just show a little bit of bias.

How much more liberal can ya get? If we didn't have a Steeler fan as a mod on a Bengal Message Board; then we would be "unfair".
What would Joe from Flo think?

I'm going to continue posting here only when someone's misinformation annoys me, just like the old board.

Someone actually cares what Joe from Flo thinks?
And it could be worse. As you suggested, SSF could be the mod over Smack Talk.
