I noted this morning that the silly posting in Armed Forces by tacticalview about Palin was gone. One can speculate on the various valid reasons why however... perhaps SYSOPS can enlighten us?

I am also curious as to the reasons for the thread's deletion.

It had absolutely NOTHING to do with "Armed Forces of the World"...it began as and continued as a wholly partisan debate between US Republicans and Democrats.  I'd delete it too, take it to Daily Kos or Right Wing News.

Funny - I don't see the author tacticalview - or his alter-ego strategicmindset - making any statement regarding this either.  While I do agree - the posting at zero to do with the Armed Forces thread - it was here and now its gone.  I am just curious as to the reason.

Yeah that was a good thread. I think all topics were hit on, politics, economics, energy. It's sad it was deleted because I think I had several people on the verge of agreeing with me :)

I disagree on that because it was a partisan cheap shot out of the box and had no backing facts for the subject.  It also needed to be somewhere else - it had nothing to do with the ARMED FORCES board.
 
Still, I wonder why it was deleted... did tacticalview go ballistic?  He often got profane when challenged on sources of his off the wall postings.
 
And... had "several people on the verge of agreeing with me"?  Xylene...  You are indeed getting the hang of being here because I note the smiley face at the end.

It got deleted simply because the arguments concentrated more on insults..:)) i would delete it as well . Anyway i will repost tactical's topic again but this time lets debate on an intellectual level.

And you are the SYSOP?  I think not.  We shall await patiently for the word from the guys who deleted it as to the reasons why.
As far as the entire thread - now that Senator Biden has paid his visit with Georgian President Saakashvili and expressed his support for Georgia - why bother posting any more of the partisan garbage that is critical of Palin for stating the same policy?
