No, I don't think baiting is what is happening, but probably to a degree.

SI had given this thread a very wide birth. As is common enough the posts had become insulting and raw at times. Not a factor unique to either side of the political spectrum.

However, SI Dave posted a warning and I suppose it had to do with complaints.

So who would and is complaining? The very people that have started what we call the hospital threads want participation on their threads. I see a level of frustration similar to the "Lib" radio network. They grow tired fast of lying to each other.

That type of frustration might motivate them to ask us to visit and legitimize their threads. It also, could motivate that have been banished from the REAL thread to complain and encourage others to complain of "raw", insulting or posts containing any TOU violations.

Besides Bush or Kerry, who would you vote for?

The link, rense.com,
says, in part,

Bush must go because of what he has done. That is a given. In fact, Bush and his entire crew should be tried for treason. How anybody can vote for Bush after the past 3-1/2 years is beyond me.

That leaves Kerry. Or does it?..........................................
