Take a minute, and read the headings in all the threads on just the first page in this political forum.
Nothing but doom and gloom in ALL of them.
I think it's time to do away with the political forum.
I know it bothers me to see such negativity, and it does have an impact on my thinking.
I am sure I am not the only one who feels this way.
I will not be frequenting this particular part of CD anymore.
It is to discouraging seeing all the negativity.

What's positive right now that you can share?

I don't disagree - just asking.

I posted a positive Olympic story yesterday, even though some took issue with it.

Why do away with it? I posted in other c-d forums and avoided this forum from November of last year until recently to clear out my head.

I know exactly what you're saying and how it impacts us as individuals to engage in this each day, but my suggestion is to take a hiatus as I did instead of thinking the whole thing needs to go.

I am guessing liberal. If don't want it, you can't have it either.
