All right, from my perspective the OT: RtP thread is right back where it was before the Crunch. We've people with radically different outlooks squabling about what it is to be biased, with no hope of reaching a consensus. On the other hand, things have advanced beyond that point, 'cause I seem to recall having made some lofty statements claiming I wouldn't "throw gas on the fire" or somesuch. So...
E. Albright,
Recalling his resolution of 30 January 2003 to cease and desist in the posting of argumentantive replies to the
OT: Rating the President thread,
Recognizing his failure to abide by his 30 January 2003 resolution,
Taking note that he really has better things to do with his time,
Reaffirming the potential discourtesy involved in argumentative political discussion,
Reaffirming also the futility of arguing about subjective perceptions of subjectivity,
Recognizing the need to not waste Shrapnel server space on wildly off-topic debate,
- Decides to unilaterally withdraw from the OT: Rating the President thread;
- Urges other Members to refrain from doing likewise;
- Urges all Members to remain seized of the subjectivity of bias perception in the meanwhile;
- Decides to shut up and be done with it.
