IMHO, GD has degenerated into nothing good.
All we have here now is Schiavo threads and now we have multiple Falwell threads. I'm off to LBN, Editorials and I'm really sorry. I think GD has almost degenerated into a version of the Lounge.

I'm once again very sorry to put up such a post.

2. Anarchy1999 says GD has degenerated to nothing good?
Ironic, idn't it?

Note: Not that I'm necessarily disagreeing with your premise, just that well you're ANARCHY!

3. Lull before the storm.
The political front is quiet now because Bush, et al. are stuck in the social security mire. Democrats are biding their time to see how he is going to extricate himself. That's why Schiavo and Michael Jackson are the big stories right now. The storm will break soon.

4. It's nothing more than partison venting
And it's better to blow off steam and our enemies than to rip each other apart which is what we do when our enemies are silent.

5. It is turning into a lounge
The mods should be more striuct, I have noticed threads being introduced which are clearly lounge threads and they all aren't being moved. Some are, but not all.

The mods should crack down, and also lock too many threads all on the same subject like Sciavo and now Falwell

They used to do this and called it consolidating

General discussion is spiraling out of control, time to pull the reigns HARD

6. LOL, you ain't seen nothing yet, wait till the Pope dies
I am betting that story will not only meet the # of posts on Schiavo or Falwell, it will beat them by a mile.

8. There should be an option to block GD items from showing up on
the latest page as there is for the Lounge threads. Or an option to "hide all but" a few threads.
