We all know Nie Trink Wasser's MO by now. Post a link with a sentence or two of comment, if that, and the rest is the good ol' ad hom attack. Nie's latest thread had nothing at all to add to society at all: it just said he thinks Madonna's ugly.
So let's see if Nie can choose a political hot topic, take a firm stance on it, and deductively argue (as much as reasonably possible for a political issue) it on this forum. If he can manage it, he wins the respect of the forum for 15 minutes. If not, it's conclusive proof that he is a troll with nothing to add to P, CE & H and he can be safely consigned to the ignore file.
The object is not to win the argument, merely to prove that he has an opinion on something and can put some thought into said something.
So whattya say, Nie? Can you put your money where your mouth is?
