I'm not pointing fingers at any particular person, but am I alone in being
bothered by the numerous political posts and downright rudeness that seems
to be becoming more frequent here? Wouldn't we have a more enjoyable
experience if we kept to the subject of the group?

Yes. But it's an election year. They'll be coming out of the
woodwork until November, on ALL newsgroups.

Cool, a board where people post stuff they don't want read by people who
will not be reading. I can see some political discussion, but with respect
and politeness. We CAN agree to disagree without being rude and nasty. If
the number of posts have diminished it likely has more to do with the
propogation. The ones I dislike are the ones running people down in such a
degrading way. I won't waste my time trying to delete everything. It is
possible to learn something you overlooked by reading an opposite political
view. There is nothing to be learned from spitting at people.
