Nov 2023 Mod notice:
There may be other, more specific, threads about some aspects of US politics, but this one tends to act as a hub for all sorts of related news and information, so it's usually one of the busiest OTC threads.
If you're new to OTC, it's worth reading the Introduction to On-Topic Conversations
and the On-Topic Conversations debate guidelines
before posting here.
Rumor-based, fear-mongering and/or inflammatory statements that damage the quality of the thread will be thumped. Off-topic posts will also be thumped. Repeat offenders may be suspended.
If time spent moderating this thread remains a distraction from moderation of the wiki itself, the thread will need to be locked. We want to avoid that, so please follow the forum rules
when posting here.
In line with the general forum rules, 'gravedancing' is prohibited here. If you're celebrating someone's death or hoping that they die, your post will get thumped. This rule applies regardless of what the person you're discussing has said or done.

Share it so that people can get into this conversation, 'cause we're not the only ones who think like this.I think these people who know so little about rape, its repercussions, and the female body should shut the fuck up about it . Get some goddamned real education before opening your mouth to flaunt your willful ignorance. And fuck you, Rick Santorum, you froth-for-brains, for blaming Mourdock's answer on a "gotcha" question. And fuck Sarah Palin for coining that term in the first place.
Do not obey in advance.Well I'm no longer regretting my decision not to vote as a Virginian and opting for a Mail-In ballot.
I mean I may be diminishing my vote towards Obama by voting as a Californian,but I'm gonna give the benefit of the doubt that he'll take the election,especially since Romney's support seems to be narrowing out now.
And I wouldn't be able to vote on a State Proposition that would outlaw the Death Penalty if passed.

Obama video compares voting to losing virginity
Huh?
That's a misstep, for sure, but...whuh? Weird. Meant to be funny? Intentional sabotage by a GOP plant? It seems too surreal.
