I never registered but came for Pookies Toons.  My account was restricted at TOS because of my anti Trump posts.  I came here and was banned on day one in one hour of posting by Tracey for a post she found offensive.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

In public yes but there were a few emails exchanged after that. I'll leave it right there.

I always liked Sinkspur too...  Pretty different from me in places, but very articulate, and always a good debate... Mesaclone that way too, believe it or not... Way different, but a hella good debater. And I miss their input... They kept me sharp.

@sinkspur was a congenital liar (brought it with him from TOS) and that was something I just could not abide. Just me.

He said he was a pastor or something right? I never cared about that. I thought he was an intelligent debater.

Portrayed himself as being a Catholic priest for a long time. You are certainly entitled to your opinions @Weird Tolkienish Figure

All I said was he was good at debate, as was Mesaclone...
That is nearly missing here... good debate about Conservative issues, along with opposition players...

And I miss it.

A Priest?

I once explained to sinky that not being able to get laid was NOT the same as being an actual priest.

Sink was/is a deacon. Our Catholic brethren here will have to explain what that is, because it's different from my denomination.

Wingnut (or WineNot as he was known for a time) and the long-departed @Chieftain made this forum interesting in the early years.

(Some of you may notice that I didn't register an account here until a few years after it started... as I noted, I was on the predecessor board, but when the schism happened—'09 or '10?—I decided to take a long break from political forums for a while. I eventually accepted myst's longstanding invitation to join.)

Tracey... yeah, I remember that schism, too. Hardcore Trumper, and when a lot of refugees who were not so much... she couldn't really handle it, started saying some things that stood against what she and Myst have said this site was supposed to represent, and disappeared. We still have a few '16 Trumpers here and there—ironically, most of the more hardcore anti-Trumpers have since quit, including some that were cornerstones of this site for a while. I wonder whatever happened to her...
