Great Forum to take on the conservatives
This used to be the old AriannaOnline forum. It's been resurrected as DebateBothSides.

http://www.debatebothsides.com/index.php

Before she took the her old site in favor of the HuffingtonPost, she was kind enough to allow the mods ownership. It's a good forum with a few good thoughtful posters. For the most part its been taken over by a bunch of anti semites and racists. I got a little tired of it so I'm takin some time away from it.

Otherwise it's an anything goes kinda place. It even has a few Republican public officials posting there so I'm sure you'll have fun unloading on them. I think someone here earlier mentioned they wated to take on some conservatives.

It's one of the few places on the net where you can give them a go w/o mod interference.

Enjoy!!!!

1. What is the point? Cons just lie and myth-make. Why bother?

2. Its not just a con forum
It has all ice cream flavors represented.

Libs
Communists
Socialists
Libertarians
etc
etc

Someone posted here earlier about wanting to get involved in some debate with some cons. Just thought I'd offer it up in case they were still interested. Its one of the few forums on the web that allows you to say anything you want w/ some small restrictions.

Besides, the mods have always treated me kindly so I thought I'd show them some support as well.

3. Ehhh.
I checked out a few of the forums and several of the posts...looks like most of the posters are lacking a chromosome here and there.

8. There is a good majority that do
There are some that don't.

There is a poster there, Bill Homans, who was involved with Vietnam Vets Against the War. He has some interesting material.

THere are some excelent writers with AVoice, PassingThrough and Fair&BalancedWhoCares. There's a lot of flaming but also many Libs that are excellent at deconstructing RightWing Talking points.

But yeah, tons of Knuckleheads as well.

It's a great board with an independant spirit to it. I like all different flavors to my political message boards.

6. I registered!
I am tired of agreeing with folks all the time.

Not that there's much point in debating Freepers online.

But it sounds like more fun than a PlayStation ...
