Also, please note...if you reply and quote a post that is subsequently removed or hidden, your reply will also be removed as it contains a removed post. This is what we refer to as orphan posts. Your post, by itself, may have been perfectly fine.
Feel free to visit the political forum within TOTV for a free wheeling, unmoderated discussion of this and any other political or current events topic
Within the general forum, current events threads need to stay on topic, avoid partisan references, and cannot include name calling. Please be civil and respectful of others' opinions.
Thanks for your cooperation. It is possible and encouraged to have civil discussions about topics of concern to all of us.

Thank you for allowing this thread to stand and I think people have been very respectful over all. I will say again that going to the political forum where every poster is called guest is like talking to one's self. It is impossible to know or remember the views of anyone because they are anonymous and it is frustrating and useless. Although we do not know the real names of posters, over time we know where they stand on issues and how they react. In the political forum not having that is useless to try to read, understand and discuss or debate.
