Hey Everybody.
This looks like so much fun! Somebody recommended it to me for argumentation purposes. I think it will be most interesting. I'm a policy debater and I rarely, if ever, turn down a good verbal spar. If there's anything you want to know about me feel free to ask.

A warm welcome to the boards!
Politics, it seems to me, for years, or all too long, has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong. ~Richard Armour

It's funny how heavy some of the debates get and then they're all so friendly.

LOL

That is what I like about this place too. We might get into heated debates sometimes but at the end of the day most of us could probably have a beer and laugh together.

Actually... I would too. I don't drink beer but I use it as a figure of speech to evoke that certain emotion. I prefer vodka.

You really are stuck on this sexuality thing huh? Shouldn't a beer, that has less alcohol than a cosmopolitan, be viewed as the more girly drink?
