Since you all like politics so much, maybe we should make our own government, have elections and stuff.
It would just be for fun.

I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown,
The dream is gone.

I think it would be very fun. Of course it would just be for kicks..

Yeah, if we take it seriously then I fear from Pindar's strong stance against us rebelious atheists.

Hey, BP, that'll be the BEST you can hope for from the Conservative Party. Imagine your sorry lot in life if we nominate and run Kaiser through?

Never fear any .org government would surely meet the headsman axe when Tosa our fearless despot finds out about any attempt to organize into a political body.
O well, seems like 'some' people decide to ruin a perfectly valid threat. Nice going guys... doc bean

I shall represent the party of Gah! then. Let the true voice of the .org speak! Vote for me (and the party, of course)
If you vote for me, and I seize power, I can guarantee certain 'benefits'
If not, and it is found out by the secret axe-wielding Gah police, well...

Re: An .org government
What's the life cycle on this idea... about once every 5 months? Funny, the discussion almost always goes the same way...
1) We should demonstrate our political prowess by holding an election
2) The "in love with the idea phase" where everyone waxes on like Solon himself
3) people begin to organize along clique lines... left, right, nihilist, etc.
4) a few outliers make a couple of jokes like the "beer party" and the "yay-boobs" party.
5) everyone realizes the outliers probably have the best idea after all.
6) we all go drink beer and look at boobs. The election has yet to be held.
But hey, let's actually DO it for once before we go scuttle off to drink beer and oggle boobs (sorry Prole).

My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.
I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

I nominate Gawain for "Permanent Overlord of Death".
And I shall accept nominations for "Local Drunkard" and "Self-Depricating Master of Wit".
Votes shall be taken from the "United States Marine" Party.

Re: An .org government
Not a good idea. We have already far to many boxes here.
Aren't there any political topics left? What happaned to that war our American comrades fought? Is it still going on? Or this bad guy? Why isn't he arrested or killed?

Re: An .org government
Isn't it a bit problematic that we have different views of what certain political parties want?
For instance here in Denmark a Liberal is a market capitalist to some extent, while in UK and US he is a PC lover. A conservative is in fact a conservative, he wants the society to stay as it is, with a general stance towards a more significant market society. And I could go on.
So while I'm a liberal market socialist (I think that says it well), I would not get the votes I wanted, yet the votes I got would be from people I don't have much in common with. And it can be applied the other way round too...
I just think I'm going to be independant, or form the Freedom Party or something.

Right. That's Proletariat for President and myself as Proletariat's loyal opposition. The rest of you fill in the dots.

Not bad at all girl. Can I park my car there too? And uh, who puked on that chair seat?
