I've been checking out some other "Liberal" forums, as I occasionally do. Sometimes I get frustrated at the Dems inability to move back to the left, and just as much so at some of the far left for their inability to hear anyone's ideas but their own. Even here, on POAC. But I've gotta tell ya, the views I've found on some of the other boards are so narrow and parochial, it's scary. Two people could share identical views and vilify each other over geography. And a lot of elitist sneering at anyone outside the "clique." Here, we have a healthy exchange of diverse ideas, and it shows that, at least at our level, coalitions are a good possibilty. If "Progressive" has anything to do with making progress, we qualify. Thanx, POAC.

Don't thank me. It's the mods here. Panda, Catherine, Billy, Dave. All I do is supply the place for it.

But I really appreciate your... appreciation. =-)

TJ, you are far too modest.
You own the site.
The rules are ultimately your rules.
Sebsequently, your site with your rules, looks like POAC/WRS

Your cops enforce your rules, and do a great job of it.
But they don't own the site, or set the rules.
