I have been an observer - and an occasional poster - on townhall for approximately 3 to 4 years. I, along with my co-workers, have noticed that there are very few, if any, of the original posters who started with townhall. What is the reason? Could it be that they were too embarressed by the comments to continue? Could it be that they left looking for a real "debate" on the important issues? Whatever the reason, townhall has become an embarressment to conservatives - and to anyone with an IQ over 65. You shame yourselves.

It could be that TH is more concerned about political correctness than letting us give our opinions. If you use certain terms that are politically incorrect, you message won't be posted. A couple of years ago, a post attempted to post a comment about his Rep. Norm D-I-C-K-S. They censored his post saying the use of the term D-I-C-K-S in appropriate. Another person tried to post a comment about Cheny, but was not allowed to post Cheney's first name since the term was inappropriate. I quit the site for a couple of years.

I own the company. My employees, with the exception of the office, are union. My union employees are some of the hardest working, most loyal employees I have ever met. I have no turnover - most stay until they retire (with a pension I might add). They earn every penny they make (we start at $16.00 per hr.). They have health insurance, paid leave and a nice pension. Just what the hell - besides hatred and anger - do any of you have?

16 an hour. Sad for a union shop. How many "employees" do you have. What sector is your business in.

Wanna go into IQ's, let's!

But by all means, let's keep obsessing over tax increases on rich people, which would take care of roughly eight percent of this year's federal deficit -- at best.   Let's take a peek at the data itself, then discover how Politico chose to boil it down into a narrative-driving headline:
 


Your headline? "Battleground Poll: Hike Taxes on the Rich."  Don't get me wrong; there is no...
