Goodbye and Good Riddance 2006: And Your Senate Majority, too!
I like this one better, though I may be biased. 2006 is on my list for hurting my friends but was a good year for me personally. The fact that we finally got a few fewer Shrub cronies in Congress really made my year. 2005, on the other hand, can bite me.
So really, either one. But I love Senate majority so very much.
Here's what I'm thinking: we aren't a political site. Even though enough people think the same way about a lot of things, that it can often feel like it's "everyone," it isn't. So, like we don't use swears in our thread titles (we don't, right?), I don't think we should use politics.
Unless we had a politics thread!
runs very far away and hides very very well
I also agree with Jesse.
I can't hear Daisy, at all. I think she's talking in her sleep--night terrors, even.
Well we put lots of things in thread titles that aren't necessarily representative of the way everyone feels, and we do generally have watch-and-posts for elections that tend to skew pretty Democratic...but that said, I do hear where you're coming from. I would hate to alienate someone on the board over politics.
t also ignoring DJ and her craxy-politics-thread-wanting self
What? I was about to second DJ. That wasn't a proposal?
I think there's "not representative" (WHAT?!? Not everyone loves Journey?!?) and then there's exclusive. I am confident that not everyone on this board is happy about the Senate takeover. I am sure that some of those people just don't post in Natter, especially around election time.
