Since Joe isn't posting, I'm sure they did. They're a gang...like the gang of 4. You know, no un pc talk or ELSE cry to the admin mod.
It comes down to this, if you're for wide open borders you are NOT a conservative. Period. Go to DU where they will LOVE you. Don't expect US to.
Actually, there's around twelve of them or so. It seems that they come in different groups. For example, there is a "TexasForever", "Torie", "VA Advogado", and "No Pardons" group. Other times, you see individuals like "Arne Fufkin", "Dane", as well as several others.
Let's hope that Joe is back very soon.
