No one else has left a mark on this small corner of the net devoted to the big bit of red dust toward the bottom of the globe (which I call home), so I claim this as sovereign Australian Territory

Please address any arguments here

I hardly ever see any Aussies talking politics outside the .au domain. G'day.

VB beats Tooheys New hands down.

Hi and Welcome... I would agree on the beer selection (like any Melburnian).

Ah what brings you a'surfing to these parts?

I like to emasculate the odd poster on the abortion board here ...

But I get all over the place... a natural "Rover"... this place is has been a bit quiet recently but LibertyNewsForum.com is alot livelier.. I log there are "DKM"

I also hit the ABC.com.au opinion boards, when / if they are running and The Age .com.au "yoursay" pages... how about yourself?

Hunh. My fellow Sydneysiders almost all seem to hate it, tasteless swine that they are

Oh, you know, I like to wander. Found my way from beliefnet.com when someone mentioned this website's existence.

Not really my cup of tea. I'm neither a woman nor a parent, so I don't feel qualified to have an opinion.

Interesting. Looks a bit America-centric, but I seem to run into that everywhere I go.

I read a lot more than I post. I can't remember everywhere I go, but I like to go off the beaten track. My last memorable port of call was a Pakistan-based forum. Wish I could remember the address...

Soo...Liberal, Labour or Other? I usually vote independent, but am susceptible to a good argument.

Hi there again... sorry slow getting back...

Melburnians have an easy view to life... I am not sure what life is like in Sydney these days not been there in years...

he abortion thing is something one is into or not... me... I am for it... but don't need to have a debate about it today..

Politically ... liberal... when I was in UK I was conservative... a long story, broke with parential tradition...

Reading is good for broadening views... without having to stand up and spout
and bore everyone (like I tend to do)

Please forward the pakistani forum... that must be different... it would sort out a few of the USA for ever brigade at the Liberty News Forum...

cheers

Found it. It's run off a Pakistani-based newspaper site called the Pakistan Tribune: [/url]http://www.paktribune.com[/url], and follow the "Forum" link. It's as strange as I remember it. I think some of the posts there would only confirm the average American's views of foreign parts.

Thanks, I will check it out and let you know how I go....

I went and have reviewed and even posted... awaiting responses... interesting denial of the holocaust post and honour killings (too good to go past) ......

Thanks for the directions... I can see I will enjoys... and probably get called a "neo-con" or a "capitalist running dog"... or something equally inept LOL

You posted? You're a much braver man than me...

No worries. I probably won't be checking in much after this - I feel like moving on from the inanity of political debate for a while. Linux forums, maybe. Have fun!

Oh I discovered forum posting is an anonomous process.. pretty safe... dignity is the only thing at risk if we mess up the argument..


If you find somewhere good... please pass on the news... any postings on this topic are notified to my main email address..

Cheers, happy surfing and best wishes
