This is center. I'm left, but behave in public, most of the time. I'm a proud member of the "got banned in one post" club over there.

Elroy, the main difference is they bounce people over a single post that is remotely liberal, while the house rules here are that anyone can post if they get along with the other children and promise to play nice. That includes no name-calling or calling ideas you disagree with stupid, etc. You won't find thousands of liberal posts on PfP, not even dozens. We have thousands from conservative posters here, though they are in the minority. I'd say this thread has several regulars who are adamantly left, a few on the right and a few of us who wander around depending on the issue. Welcome. PS I see your PfP posts focused relentlessly on the facts, which pissed them off when they didn't fit their preconceptions. You may like it here a lot.

So....is it true you all are a bunch of lefties, Pretty left leaning bunch - but Dale is more than fair in letting all sides have their say as long as they follow the rules. That's a lot more than you get from the dancing moderator at pfp. ............I say this with respect for Dale even though he seldom agrees with me and virtually never responds to my comments.
