yeah like obama need to be there. He signed a bill to allow born babies that are not wanted to just die. Imagine what he would do as president.

Ryan they don't know how to not hate on their fellow Cobalt owners let alone not slit each other's throats and **** the slit like a 14 year old virgin getting ihs dick wet for the first time.


I suggest a nice lager, and giggle, then lock it up when it gets out of hand.


Not if.

Many older car forums have banned political discussions. The SE-R forum i used to frequent has been around for more than 10 years and has not allowed any political discussion. The idea behind it what several of you have discussed before, most political discussions turn into a big argument where there is no clear victor and no one walks away the better. There was a posting 101 video a long time ago and it said ask yourself this before posting, what does it contribute to the betterment of the forum community?

In the end it's up to the Admin, I'm still waiting on his final opinion on the matter.

It is not bad when people can keep the mudslinging down to a minimum...but around here that is like asking to meet the pope on the eighth day of the week while eating a sandwhich made out of a gold chocobo.

He is watching this thread, and he sees your opinions on the matter.

I'm sure the change won't be instantaneous; of course the members will have a few days to adjust if it happens. I bet an announcement will be made, and everyone will know when it happens and what will/won’t be allowed.
