Default How did you find P & CA

As we have had an influx of new members recently, it would be interesting to find out how you came across Politics and Current Affairs.

A link in a sig at another forum (Political Crossfire, and just as a heads-up they don't like links to competing forums to be in sigs over there).

You need another choice, I don't remember!

I know it was a long time ago and I remember the transfer from EZboard...

I would guess it was a link on some board or blog as I used to surf thru those a bit. Now I just hit my favorite two from time to time.

I was on EZ Board one afternoon, and was curious to see whether any politics boards even existed. I searched via EZBoard and found this site. I read through everything, and then literally forgot about it for like two weeks. I remembered it one evening when I was bored...and it was the day before or the day that the switch away from EZ Board was made.

Google - but I wasn't actually looking for a forum and not even a political one at that.

Cool

I kept getting into political debates in a computer forum via the Off Topic section-That's when I first realized I even had an interest in politics and current affairs.

I did some looking around and I stuck with this one.

Why? P&CA? Even though this forum is so far left of center and hostile to conservatives? Easy.

You guys play hardball and are smarter than any of the other groups I found. And that's a fact Jack.

conservatives don't stick around because most cannot play hardball... they prefer their own stepford forums....

Thats very true.
Any forum that I've ever been to thats decorated with American flags seems to harbor neo-cons.
