When I look at threads, I can't see who the person is who posted the response. I know I could go into the account settings here and change it so it's formatted for a smart phone, but I use my PC at home to post (no way am I going to type out responses on an iphone) and if I change the settings it'll affect that.

Here's my prediction for what'll happen with the I/P 'group'. Skinner will unilaterally appoint Lithos as the permanent host of the forum, the guidelines will be migrated across from DU2, polls and the rec feature will be turned off, and the Jury duty will last a few weeks before the forum software gets tweaked and the host gets given the job of 'hiding' posts. And when we encounter DUers in the big forums complaining about the Jury system and pining for the good old days of DU2, we can brag that we're the only part of DU3 that's authentic DU2!

The more things change, the more they stay the same

You think Satmar and Neturei Karta are liberal? oberliner Dec 2011 #51

Those Are Anti-Zionist Jews USA_1 Dec 2011 #59

They are anti-Zionist, but not liberal or progressive oberliner Dec 2011 #64

You Are Correct USA_1 Dec 2011 #65

Those Whistling Dixie In 1865 Didn't Believe In A One State Solution USA_1 Dec 2011 #94

Yours is a pro-war position. The vast majority of Israelis and Palestinians... shira Dec 2011 #95

The vast majority of Palestinians would favor a one-state solution. bemildred Dec 2011 #96

Not a secular state... shira Dec 2011 #97

Don't change the subject. bemildred Dec 2011 #98

FYI, about the majority of Palestinians wanting sharia rule under a dictatorship... shira Dec 2011 #99

Do they keep lists of those obscure 30-year-old polls somewhere handy for when they are needed? bemildred Dec 2011 #101

The point is, most Israelis and Palestinians are against one secular state. n/t shira Dec 2011 #102

''help the rich'' USA_1 Dec 2011 #57

What I mean is that the right-wing think that the rich should have untrammeled rights to make money LeftishBrit Dec 2011 #60

Ironic. Avigdor Lieberman is not even close to being as extreme as Ron Paul. n/t shira Dec 2011 #61

''untrammeled rights to make money '' USA_1 Dec 2011 #63

As Ruby's already said, Ha'aretz is anything but an extreme RW source... Violet_Crumble Dec 2011 #44

Arutz sheva isn't merely a RW source. It's extremely bigoted Violet_Crumble Dec 2011 #31
