I cannot speak for you and of course there's no "secret society" that I know of but as to the many I refer to, it's racism. You cannot find anyone who will admit to it, but it's there and we all know it. BTW The President did put together the dynamics that brought down all the terrorists. He calls the shots, he is the commander in chief. If he fails, he takes the heat but when he wins, he deserves the credit​

Ok! You posted that I said or I'll even go with implied "anyone who didn't vote for Obama is a racist". Show me then in the post "proving" I said such a thing, exactly WHERE I said it. If you cannot do that, and you cannot, apply at FOX as a local reporter. Also you need to remember not to come to a gun fight with only a pocket knife. Boom!
 
Isn't it amazing the lengths people will go to to avoid saying anything good about President Obama.

It's really the same if you look around, folks on the other side don't want to say anything good about what the Republicans believe in, and logically, there has to be pros and cons. One side is not better then the other. I know plenty of Republicans over the years that truly support the pres, because he is the pres. I don't like him, but if I see something he does good, I will acknowledge it. I don't see a lot, I hear about all the wonderful stuff, but then I am open to listening to all the input.

You guys don't like Republicans, or some of you don't I guess. I don't see the big deal, he seems to be doing well for some folks, and we do all get to vote.
 

You implied, no you said, that anybody that didn't like Obama was a racist. I was just using your own reasoning to show you how stupid you sound when you play the race game. By your reasoning any black people who didn't vote for Romney is also a racist.

yeah, Romney was a mormon, so many played that card.

Well, when I see something good to report about Republicans, I'll let you know, I wouldn't hold your breath until then though.
 
Fox new does have people on with opposing views. Alan Combs is on there all the time showing how little he knows. Most of the hosts are always offering Hollywierd folks and other leftists air time, but they are too chicken to show up. I will give them credit (leftist), those two bimbos with the state department are on quite a bit. They are as dumb as a box of rocks. I watch CBS every morning, and every evening. I notice that they often slant things, leave things out, or otherwise try to put their spin on things.

If I really want the straight dope on things, "just the facts maam", I would tune into Brian Williams on NBC.

I think Abraham Lincoln was a Republican. Al Gore's dad was a US Senator and opposed to Civil Rights. It goes both ways.

Today's Republicans are not yesterday's, and when it was all said and done more democrats voted for civil rights than republicans and that is what counts.
 
Seabreeze,

The "maybe" in my statement is saying that I get the feeling the Republicans are constantly being bashed on here. You being an admin. and on the side of the democrats that are doing the bashing has worried me a little, like I can't say what's on my mind, like some do, without getting kicked out of the forums.

I have a lot of friends here, I mean people I would miss, I love coming here, but I don't like anyone getting picked on and called names, and have snide/snarky remarks made to them because they are conservative. I guess I take my chances being honest about how I feel here. I was really middle of the road, basically, I'm still open-minded to both "sides" but the rules of this board say no rudeness.

If you haven't noticed Obama and the democrats being criticized on this forum, then you haven't read many of the threads here.

Insinuating that since I'm a moderator here would stop you from giving your opinions about favoring the republican party without being banned is insulting. I was a member here when this forum first started, and was an active member for a couple of years before I agreed to help with moderation in 2014, and that volunteering in no way took my rights away to my own opinions. Nobody was ever banned from here for their political views.

I am a registered Independent. I voted for George W. Bush in 2000. After he started the Iraq war, I did not intend to vote him in again. Since then I have learned much about the republican party, and have shared with everyone here on more than one occasion that the more I learn, the further left I lean.

As far as name calling and rudeness, some people here have crossed the line in political discussions, and those posts are removed when needed, you should be aware of that. This is NOT a political forum, and this section for Current News and Hot Topics has been added only because people requested to speak of more serious subject than light-hearted topics in General Discussions.

Those who are upset by others who disagree with them politically, can put this whole section on 'ignore'. Those who want to call each other names and snipe at each other, can join a political forum where there are no rules and they can get as nasty as they like. This isn't one of those forums. We have very few rules in place, and most members have no issues with respecting them.

There are members here who said they left other forums because things became too heated, insulting and offensive. They wanted a friendlier place to visit, and came here. We intend to keep this forum a quality place for seniors to visit and talk to each other. Following are the two rule threads found in Forum Support, in case everyone hasn't read them yet.


Senior Forums is a friendly place where members can feel comfortable while visiting and participating in our discussions. Our goal is to maintain the integrity of this board, and continue to enjoy a high quality, clean community experience.

Please keep in mind that we have members and visitors from all walks of life, various ages, races and ethnic backgrounds. We ask that all members are respectful of each other, and considerate of those who may be reading their posts. Use good judgment, if you think something may be objectionable, do not post it.

Posts that are abusive, insulting, hateful, sexually or racially offensive/inflammatory will not be tolerated. Any problem posts/threads will be removed, edited or closed without notice, and the user's account may be terminated.

Regardless of the topic, we ask that all members are respectful to each other, and keep a civil tone in all discussions in the forums. We do not accept rudeness, name calling, offensive or insulting posts. Keep in mind that this is not a political forum, and any vitriolic arguments or debates are not welcome here.

Thanks to everyone for helping to keep this a friendly senior forum.
 
I've belonged to a couple of rather large forums, and that admins never got involved with the discussions, so I have thought to be an admin you have to be objective. Evidently not on all forums.

I still do not feel that certain rules are being followed, maybe they are not "caught", the demeaning threads, that are about people here. Others have mentioned it and I would never break their confidence. Since I don't see any change taking place as to the way some people are allowed to talk on here, I will do as you mentioned and not just block those folks, but I will stay out of your political discussions. It's a shame because I have gotten many strokes from folks that liked what I had to say.

That last paragraph is not being enforced Seabreeze. It says regardless of "topic" and especially in political discussions there is loads of disrespect. It says:

If anyone out there see's this going on, now is the time to step forward, Matrix has assured me that no one is getting kicked off because of disagreeing with anyone on this forum, as long as they are civil and respectful.

I don't blame anyone for not saying anything either. I won't change my mind about what I see with my own two eyes. I will just avoid the threads political, and any that continue to be rude and disrespectful.

I am objective, and as a long time member, will continue to be involved in all of the discussions of interest to me. Matrix has reinforced just what I've been saying here, nobody will be getting "kicked off" of the forum for disagreeing with another member, as long as they are civil and respectful. If you don't like the way political discussions are handled, then you have every right not to participate in them.
 
Well, I think that is good that you get to both be an admin as well as participate. I just think that people, including myself change when it comes to politics. Matrix was good about setting my mind at ease as well. I do hope at some point the inappropriate post will be caught, I know it must be hard to catch them all, with only 2 monitors.

I just saw one today that simply said "blah blah blah", I think we all need to act more like adults. I just think that's a waste of space, and totally disrespectful to the speaker it is aimed at. I know I'm trying my best to not make nasty comments, they are worthless, add nothing to the discussion but hard feelings.
 
Maybe our definition of rude and disrespectful are different matrix. I know some have now been deleted, so I can't go back and show you, but that's ok, I think your rules are very good, but they need to be enforced. Actually, Seabreeze usually posts very good info, but after AZ Jim had been rude to me, she backed him up, instead of saying, hey, you two play nice. The same with Quicksilver. I know you can't see or read everything, and I know many folks choose not to make waves, but when I see injustice being done, it's more important to me to speak up

As far as let's be fair, I am ALL for that, it's about time.
 
Well, I don't have you on ignore but my advice was merely meant in a friendly way as a possible solution to your getting upset.

Well that was right nice of you then Jim, you sure changed your tune compared to the posts I have from the last two days from you:) thanks

No. No changes here. I will continue to refute anything that I feel needs refuting. I love politics and can take the heat, it is a rough game to play if you cannot. I have never called you a single name, but rather I have stated my opposition to many of your comments. Frankly, I find some of your comments unworthy of rebuttal. We needn't be beer swilling buddies and I can handle any traffic coming my way. We might find some agreement on some subjects but politics isn't one of them.
