If so, was it taken down and if so, why? Thank you.

Yes it was taken down. If you look back a couple of pages, you'll see it ws taken down by the QVC mod (thread title is still there) and it says the reason is it was political. (D'uh)

Not that I ever saw. It was a civil discussion. I went to it today (which is why I saw it was poofed) because I wanted a poster to follow up on something I kept asking but she never answered. Also to comment that my impression that the Foxnews mods were after Trump unfairly was confirmed by lots of headlines I saw today and by Trump himself last night afterwards.

You had to figure it would get take down.

When I saw it yesterday, it was quite civil and actually very interesting.

OH WELL!

Thanks, JJM! I left before it was shut down, but I agree... everything was civil. In fact, it was downright nice I enjoyed reading the various PsOV.

It bit the dust... I think because "no political allowed!"

I enjoyed reading the thread last night as I finished watching the debates. It had about 19 pages when I finally stopped reading.

I agree that everyone was on their best behavior. It was fun while it lasted, almost like we were getting by with something forbidden!

Political discussions are not allowed. Period. Civil and pleasant or not. I was shocked it remained as long as it did.

It wasn't a political discussion, it was a discussion about the debate, there's a difference, and almost every single post stayed on track.

It seems everyone in the discussion understood the difference.

If it was about a political debate it was political .

That or maybe they are beginning to realize that they lost a lot of posters due to the uneven moderation and decided to try allowing more intelligent conversations than how do you butter your bread......

Nope, it didn't go that way. I don't understand why you are so angry about it.

Who said I was angry about it? I couldn't care less. I just stated the facts.

Thread locked - becoming unfriendly.
