Power Line News

As an avowed Libertarian who leans to the left, I’m enjoying the points of view being shared here.
There has been some great debate.

We agree; thanks to all who participate!

It is a nice enough place but I am not a big fan of the postBot. 

I’d rather see the forum members start topics on news items of their choosing.
Just my 2 cents.

ditto to tkc

yup,

i showed up here to cause trouble, but for the most part I haven’t been called liberal scum too many times, so I’ll take it as a chance to discuss issues and ideas.

I left the high ground and waded into the swamp in posting my non-conservative but deeply held beliefs on amnesty; I have faith any responses will be respectful here.  It is a good exercise to write down one’s thoughts on various issues, conservatives needed forum like this as part of the process of developing ideas at the very grassroots level.

Who was it who said, “How will I know what I think until I see what I’ve written?”

Don’t worry; we’ll get around to you sooner or later.

Me, I think I say that every time I post. Then I frantically check
spelling and then post only to realize I left out an entire word.

But let us all bow to this great saying from the
CaptainsQuartersBlog

Thank you Powerline for this forum!  I like it much better than the new Hotsoup!

I have been a daily reader of Powerline for a long time and I’ve long wanted to be able to comment on many of the topics.  I tried a number of other forums, but nothing ever clicked, until now.

Thanks again to John, Scott, and Paul.

I don’t know why the Power Line guys would want to start a discussion forum. Seems like a lot of work for very little reward. But they’re smart guys so I guess they know what they are doing. Anyway, I’m glad they did. Seems like a classy forum as opposed to some of the forums I have seen.

Yep, I don’t know how I got in here, probably something from Instapundit, but my main problem is spending too much time reading and posting, rather than doing some other things out in the non virtual world, but for the moment, I’m hooked.  There is a little mindless, or mindful, name-calling, but it does not predominate.

Yep, I’m spending waaaaaay too much time on the Internet, reading and posting on discussion forums. I need to get out and do some more things in the real world.

Well, I’ll give myself a little credit; I made it out bowhunting this afternoon and saw two does and a 6-8 pt buck.  All were a little too far away for a good shot, but it was exciting...and it was out there in the real world, a COLD real world, but I was dressed for it.  If I put a treestand in 50 yds North of where I was today, business might boom!
