Lots of reading to catch up on.
« on: January 16, 2012, 10:47:25 AM »
I found this site through another member on another site. I have spent some time reading and deciding if I wanted to join the site. Well here I am. Don't know how much posting I will do early on but hope to become a contributing member.  ::beertoast::

Welcome Johnny. Thanks for checking us out.

A great place to begin getting to know us and what to expect is HERE.
"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

I found this site through another member on another site.

It's OK to name names here, Johnny. No one here to be scared of, no censureship, just great conversation. Besides, I like taking credit for enlisting members smarter than me. ::whoohoo::

And it's another case of the lib fishing site IDP has grown to love. ::hysterical::

Hey. Welcome.
The problems we face today are there because the people who work for a living
are outnumbered by those who vote for a living.

Welcome Sally Brown! Nice to "see" you here after all this time. Who'd've thought that so many years after the demise of powerline forum, and such efforts by the core to remain united, than an old friend would rejoin us now? Glad you're here!

Wow, my mind must be going...I totally do not remember you. But I'm glad you are here.
In a doomsday scenario, hippies will be among the first casualties. So not everything about doomsday will be bad.

It has probably been about 5 years or so, right? Long time, anyway. Dang.

PLF began in November of 2005, correct? They ran the notorious "Candidates Forum" in '06/'07 until the whole thing blew up in their faces, and they shut down the whole shebang shortly after that. Probably late 2007 if my memory serves.

I remember Sally Brown.

Dang.  I don't.  Well, doesn't matter; glad to make your re-acquaintance, Sally Brown.
