I am still maintaining dual citizenship.

I don't want dumbass monkies like Gravitas, Hokieguy and DaFletch feeling like they won something.

Plus we REALLY need to import some chew toys here.  ;)

How about the Obamalama Dingdongs?

That would be racist because of the myth about black men and their "size".

No suprise here. CC, unlike CU, consists mostly of people who are smart enough to get off of the ship with the crazy captain at the helm.

Hey, wait a minute, I thought I was one of your chew toys!! I am an "Obamabozo". "O-bot", or "Obamababy", take your pick of the Hillbots' nickname-of-the-week for us.  :lmao:

One of them yesterday even called us "Obamessiah's", which almost cost me a keyboard thanks to spilled coffee.

That being said, I do think that the major reason CC is doing so well is because it's becoming its own site and not just focusing on being against CU.

A Squeeky Toy maybe, but you haven't been a chew toy in a while. :)

As cynical as I am and as bad as I think he would be for the country as regarding my own political beliefs, there is a part of me that would be celebrating if Obama got elected.  To go from Jim Crow (Which was almost in almost my lifetime) to a black man elected President would surely be something grand.

Yeah, that would be nice.  For about five seconds.

The Democratic Party has destroyed the black community in this country.  75% illegitimacy rate, 40% high school drop-out rate.  And they keep turning to the source of their problems for a solution.  And it's just not happening.

I think gator's shit-stirring slash-and-burn strategy to "liven up the site" and get new members has backfired bigtime this time.

Of course his tactic backfired. Did he really think he can rant like a madman and ban all dissenters and get away with it?

I've debated with gator since 2005 on several sites and I've noticed that his debating tactic is very simple: first he presents his opinions as facts (which is his idea of spreading "moral clarity") and accuses those who don't share his views of being ignorant. He starts to rant and insult others when people don't accept his views as facts. He hides behind his little rants (to avoid answering questions and addressing issues) and runs away when he runs out of insults. That's a coward's debating tactic. Gator bans those who disagree with what he says because he's afraid of dissenters. He resorts to insults and rants because he thinks it gives the illusion that he has character. His true character shows when he's cornered in a debate. Those who have debated with him know what he does when he's cornered. He runs away, like a coward.

That's true. A site that merely focuses on one thing is basically just a club, not a political discussion forum.

Overall, a political discussion forum that tolerates dissenters will be a successful site. Is there a site that has banned more people than CU? (No) That's why CU is dying and this site is booming.

To be fair to CU, I think you may have overlooked a site in your analysis.  Some obscure little site that goes by "DU" for short, IIRC.

I knew it was bound to happen. You have the best of CU over here.... ACC, Rebel, Freeper, Undies, etc. Whereas over there, the crazies that made everybody leave still run the sinking ship.

It's only a matter of time before CU might possibly have 10 new threads a day and that's it.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Well, that's what I'm wondering myself.

Anyone with moral clarity has a conscience.

gator has moral clarity.

I suspect gator is hiding, out of shame and embarassment for all that he wrought.

Nah, remember, gator has a life..the internet isn't that important to him, and he only admins CU as a favor to Rob.  :whatever: :whatever: :whatever:
I'm sure he's just been soooooooooooooo busy IRL that he doesn't have time to hang out at CU right now.   :whatever: :whatever:

That fact that his busy IRL stuff coincides with the flaming nosedive CU is in is pure coincidence, I'm sure.
