I do believe the OP is pulling our leg???

Anyway, it isn't the political topics themselves, but the hurling of personal insults back and forth. Then starts the the "you said", "no I didn't say", "yes you did say", "then you need to go back and read what I said", then "no, you need to go back and read your own words" that is mind numbing.

After that, nobody who has a cogent thought about the topic can play.
