Stop the damned fire threads.

[county worker]

Let's get out and work to win in November. We have less than one month.

[JVS]

1. but it's a burning topic!

[Swede]

2. We should ask for a fee to put this fire out.

:shrug:

[Warren DeMontague]

8. It burns when I pee

does that count?

[Me.]

3. Why Can't People Post Want They Want?

Is there a fee they haven't paid?

[villager]

5. You mean, like "Democratic" sharing some root word with "democracy" or something?

:shrug:

[jobycom]

12. Because he said so, that's why. nt

[Radical Activist]

14. Why can't people post what they want in the existing 1,000 theads about the topic?

[ThomCat]

4. Is there a reason people can't talk about more than one thing at a time?

periodically we see someone post something like this, saying "Don't post anything unless it's about X topic! X topic is all that matters!"

I really wonder, are there really people here that are so mentally crippled that they are only capable of thinking and working on one issue at a time for days and weeks at a time?

This would be a very boring discussion board if that was true.

I think people should post on as many topics they want. I honestly believe people can hold more than one idea in their heads simultaneously without exploding. :P

6. DU does love to beat on dead horses doesn't it.

[jobycom]

11. yeah, imagine. A discussion board, discussing. Weird, huh?

[Warren DeMontague]

7. Start one on porn, smoking bans, olive garden, breastfeeding, PETA, or children on airplanes.

That's about the only thing that will do it.

[Contrary1]

9. Hit the Hide Thread feature...

I'm up to 45 46 just on this subject.

[jobycom]

10. That's it. Light a fire up under their asses! Don't let them douse your enthusiasm!

We can't just stand around and do nothing while the world around us burns! Answer the call! Volunteer!

And don't forget to mail in your contribution! When the heat is on in November and the flames are licking at your feet, it will be too late!

[aquart]

13. Has it occurred to you yet

That outrages like this are exactly what will galvanize us to vote?

An illustration is worth a thousand worthy and serious arguments.

I suggest you and everyone here should link the fire story on Facebook, Twitter, and every other network you have with the special reminder that animals burned in this libertarian hell for $75.
