No Jeff, It's just that political threads tend to get hostile and personal. I highly doubt any poster could make a post to make others see their way.
There is a political forum and that's fine. I personally never even open it but it there. I got to the point at the swamp that I wouldn't even open the football forum because of this. It just starts a major shit fight.
Keeping it in it's proper forum is not too much to ask.
