What kills me is that everone seems to feel the need to post their own version of the same dang thread.

Can't we just have one really long "Sarah Palin says dumb things" thread? Or "faults of Obama" or "McCain's a drain", etc.

But you know what happens after 50 posts - nuclear holocaust. That and it is too much trouble to go back and read through 100 or more posts if you didn't latch on at the begining.

But it's the same defenders/attackers making the same defenses/attacks in all of the threads.

I guess I'm mostly surprised that they have the strength/endurance (not to mention, the time) to be continually repetitive.

It's the same puppetteer phenomenon over and over. Someone makes an attack, here comes the same defense as in other threads, then the same rehashed attacks, ad the same defense, and over and over and over.

Ah, your father was a hamster, and your mother smells of elderberries.

Or, somethinglike that.

I'm surprised there isn't more talk about the economy. I don't think a lot of people realize the magnitude of what could be happening. Today the losses are mostly in computers and paper. Eventually that will translate to the physical world where some real hurt could happen.
