@gungasnake,
Clearly there is an explicit or implicit agreement among the more liberal members here to ignore threads you start.
Frankly, I can't say I often agree with everything you post, but if yours is the first thread on a contemporary topic, why should anyone boycott it? Tribalism at workon A2K.
Do you really care whether or not your threads are designated as "Popular?"
And BTW, if no one, but you, posts to them, they will never receive that designation, no matter what the "super-losers" do.
This forum is filled with ridiculous left-wing threads that never receive the shunning your right-wing posts do.
This tells us that left-wing thinking, even on the edges, is vastly superior to it's counter-part, or that this forum is overrun with liberals.
I have no doubt that any number of A2Kers would, if they deigned to enter one of your threads, declare that the former is clearly correct.
That would speak for itself.
