I love FR, but debate is not the thing here. Certainly not on DU.

You "love" FR but you won't debate here? LOL Goodbye....

Well, it's a professional thing for me, but the lounge at http://www.webhostingtalk.com is dominated by leftist loons and could use some more good conservatives to debate with.

Political debate is not the subject of the forum, but there is a LOT that goes on there and it's very active. Worth a shot.

M: Argument is an intellectual process. Contradiction is just the automatic gainsaying of any statement the other person makes.
(short pause)
A: No it isn't.
M: It is.
A: Not at all.
M: Now look.
A: (Rings bell) Good Morning.
M: What?
A: That's it. Good morning.
M: I was just getting interested.
A: Sorry, the five minutes is up.
M: That was never five minutes!

I've found that "free debate" does not exist on the internet...only disagreements that instantly turn into insults. Good luck, though.

No debating at FR?????

Express an opinion and try to avoid it! LOL.

I suggest you start a thread on a subject you wish to debate about and see what happens.

USE CHAT, NOT NEWZ THREAD PLEASE

Have you googled "debate"?

Totally free debate?

I can't think of any. Most are moderated to some extent otherwise they are overrun by spam, porn and really bad poetry.

Looking at some of your past postings it's clear that you don't really want debate, you want everyone to shut up and agree that you're right.

No debate here? There's plenty here.

The debate is between elements of the right, not the right and left. That might be why you can't recognize debate: you expect a template, not a reality.

Every forum or blog has its bias -- and if that bias is not enforced, it is means (1) not much traffic, you'll be "discussing" with the few or (2) the site (such as usenet open discussion forums) are overrun by spam, nastiness and nonsense and motor-mouths.

FR was more open once, very light moderation -- but it became overrun by (2). JimRob expanded his moderation, and appointed moderators. It was a necessity.

That is, you'll have to settle for situation (1) for a "free" discussion.

Something Awful: Debate and Discussion. Generally libertarians vs. liberals, fundies tend to be horribly offended. There's a one time $10 registration to post, but it helps give the mods actual teeth and keeps everyone civil.
