Hello to all members and debaters!

Some of you may remember the, "Great Debate," a few months back. I am deciding to resurrect its epicness, and create a whole new debating network. Here's it will all go.

Debates may be set up on this thread. You may call out a specific topic, and ask for anyone to challenge you, or you may call out a specific member to debate with.

These debates will be set up on profiles created by myself. The member who challenged a member, or the member who set up the topic, will start each debate off with their stance and back up. For backup used in the debate, a link is mandatory for your opponent.

Each member will post back in forth debating on your stance on the subject at hand. DragonMistress, Moegreche, I, or any other moderator that states they want to help judge will come by each debate profile to give update scores, and maybe a hint or two. The moderator judge will end the debate as he/she sees fit. The prize for a debate is a merit!

All rules for the site apply. No spamming, plagerising, foul language, (eventhough debates can get pretty intense) etc.

Now, all of you, go out and debate!

Do you have adjudicators for those debates? If not, then let me know.

Just to let people know, I've hopped on board. Some of these debates may be adjudicated by myself.

Unfortunately I do not have the time to actually participate in any of them (since I have a habit of constructing my replies over the course of some hours).

Conservatism vs. Liberalism
(I'm a Conservative)


Thats completely an opinion, beyond using examples, it'd be a tough debate. But honestly it's method's of government in very generalized preportions. Let's try something a lil' smaller.

Stem Cell Research-Pro
Offshore Drilling-Anti
Palin's qualifications-Anti
Government Incentives-Anti
Government buyouts-Anti

Well, the main tenets of Conservatism are :
Less social programs, Lower taxes, and Funding the military first.

Fine, I'll issue a few more:

Illegal Aliens are destroying our job market.(pro)
The California Legislature doesn't have a revinue problem, it has a spending problem.(pro)
