In addition to my original slogan suggestion:

Deny duplicity

I like that. Perhaps somewhat unconventional terminology, but for those who are familar, it makes sense.

I didn't notice something saying this was guessing contest...
but here's also some arguments.

Deny Dictators
No need to explain.

Deny Distortion
Distorting things and lying are "word of the day" in politics so that would fit well because those are used commonly...
even for justifying wars and/or killing by these so called terrorists and some leaders of "civilised" countries.
(who are just as extremist as those terrorists)

Pity it has to be two words long...
Looks like many political leaders rise itself to god so "Deny Wrong Gods" would hit the point.

Deny Brainwashing
Well... brainwashing is tool of politicians and those so called terrorist leaders. (+ starching people to same mold)


Sorry... couldn't resist.



"All of us who are concerned for peace and triumph of reason and justice must be keenly aware how small an influence reason and honest good will exert upon events in the political field."
-Albert Einstein

"When any government, or any church for that matter, undertakes to say to its subjects, This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know, the end result is tyranny and oppression no matter how holy the motives."
-Robert A. Heinlein

"Great is truth, but still greater, from a practical point of view, is silence about truth. By simply not mentioning certain subjects... totalitarian propagandists have influenced opinion much more effectively than they could have by the most eloquent denunciations."
-Aldous Huxley

Denying Everything - Because its the 1 thing every politician aroun the world is good at

or of course Plausible Denial/ Deniability

I guess since all of the good ones are taken, mine will be:

Deny Tyranny.

P.S. I think you should only be allowed to submit one.

gotta agree with you on that one. Other wise it will be like the domain name grab.

Can we have a British Politics forum in the new Politics Board..please

My suggestions would have been 'Deny Apathy' and 'Deny Spin', but it looks like they've been done long ago, so how about:

Deny Indifference
Deny Ambiguity
Deny Erroneousness
Deny Disinterest
Deny Subordination
Deny Misrepresentation
Deny Misguidance

As for forum ideas, I think that the two existing Ideology/Conspiracy forums should definitely remain. The new forums need to stike a balance between offering a specific subject area, and offering plenty of scope for discussion. I think forums for the following would be good: -
Each region (EU, Asia, Aus, Africa, S.A)
US Politics and US Foreign Policy
Political Scandals
Political Issues
Political Satire
Debate (like the existing debate forum but politically themed)

Iagree as well. I think before the motto is announced those who submitted multiple mottos should be given the option to edit their submission post down to one submission, or forfeit their claim to the award points

Personally I can't see a special political only board working. If the political element is removed from conspiracy theories then what is left?
Economic- ties to politics
Religious- ties to politics

I probably am missing some arcane understanding here. Even so I still don't get it.

As to a catchy term- ADVISOR on page one nailed it 'deny POLITRICKS'

Got to be the best ever.

Now maybe liberal and conservative Americans can at least focus on something other than their differences. As the Ukraine has demonstrated, there is political life beyond the beachfront.

heres my sugestion:

DENY NOTHING

PTS Slogan 1 = "Deny Fault"

PTS Slogan 2 = "Deny Promises"

Deny Corruption
Deny Misinformation
Deny Wordplay
Deny Logic
Deny Voting
Deny Ballots
Deny Truth

The Spinbusters....Presenting the Truth behind the Spin.....

Deny truth (its all that happens in politics)

Deny corruption

Deny statistics (Darn stats)

This is a great idea.

Do we get a U.K politics forum now?

DENY INCOMPETENCE

How's that for a slogan?

Deny Strategy
Deny Strategy
Deny Strategy
Deny Strategy



[edit on 12/1/2004 by Simulacra]

Two word slogan:

Deny Arrogance

I can't go through all 18 pages to find out if this has been suggested,

Deny All

Deny the Lie

Deny Logic

and a future suggestion for the Gay and Lesbian's Only Forum:

Deny your Bi

I like:

Deny Propoganda and Deny Partisanship best (both already mentioned I believe)...

Forum Topics

(geographical, for area-specific politics)
Middle East Politics (includes Isreali)
US Politics
UK Politics
European Politics
Asian Politics
Aussie Politics
African Politics
South American Politics

Pending Legislation (proposed bills, etc.)

Possible NWO Legislation (Patriot Act, Patriot Act II, etc.)

Current National Elections (focuses on whatever area is currently having a national election. For example, during the US election, would have been focused on the issues and candidates of the US...if instead, it then comes time for the UK elections, then switches focus to those issues and candidates)

Partisan Ideology (focusing on differences between various political parties and ideals)

The UN (focusing on decisions, issues, involving the UN)

Common Issues (focusing on issues that all nations must face, such as disease care, abortion, torture, drug use, crime, etc. and how each deals with it)

Military Action (focusing on current instances of military actions of nations)

Deny Kakistocracy or Kakistocracies

Government by the least qualified or most unprincipled citizens.
Government by the worst men.

Doesn't that about sum up politics in this country and abroad?
