If you have a ping list, would you put me on it?

If you wish to discuss political books, you are going to have discussions of politics and not of books.

Convervatives need to begin discussing Literature, in the worst way.

Liberals dominate the arts; almost always with very shoddy theories (p.c., an affinity for anything that is 'dark' and 'edgy' and so on);

There are often very good threads on movies; in which the movies are discussed for their story line, photography, actors, characters, etc. with politics secondary. I am not the one starting this thread and perhaps I shouldn't butt in with an alternative idea and Tanniker's taking on the work is much appreciated,

and it is just a suggestion, but might we discuss fiction? (ducking...)

If you do please put me on it too - thanks.

Hey, this is sort of the "first meeting" coming to order. Suggestions are welcome. I just didn't want to start with an empty thread, so I put up a topic.

Feel free to go off on a tangent if it gets the folks talking.

Right on, girl! For instance... I've just read Cormac McCarthy's "Cities of the Plain," and found it breathtaking. Anyone want to talk about it?

I would love that.

Seconded!

I thought it was a good idea.......I'll keep a watch on what happens!
