Here's what I don't understand. Michelle Obama is "remotely related" to the 2008 Primaries...
...and yet, somehow, we have 50 frigging gazillion Michelle Obama threads in GD, not GD-P, where they belong. At least according to the GD-P rules, faithfully pasted below:

If your thread is about the Democratic presidential primaries and caucuses, or about any of the candidates running for the Democratic presidential nomination, or anything remotely related...
Please post in this forum:



So what the hell is the guideline?

I KNOW people are cheating the "3 post per day" quota, and yet, the threads continue. Help me out, people. What am I missing here?

Cause I've gotta tell you, I am so frigging sick of the "Here is the EXACT word Michelle used" threads that I'm seriously considering posting nothing but endless Jessica Alba Worship Threads in The Lounge.

YES, it's come to THAT.

7. Yes, absolutely, it's not just Michelle threads...
...but here's the thing that pisses me off.

I was, and continue to be, a John Edwards supporter. As such, I didn't pose Edwards spam of confrontational / attack threads to communicate that support.

I applaud what Skinner & crew have done with GD-P and the three threads in 24 hours limit, but it is ABSOLUTELY being played, and that SUCKS ASS.

OK, end of rant.

:patriot:
