*** Please Read Before Posting *** - Thread Protocol Rules - (Real Simple)
This is a prototype idea for a FR Working Group: US Budget FY-2012 / Nat. Debt
If the budget is approved before this is posted, it can be an idea for FR working groups on other subjects and issues.
To improve our work and activism on FR, there are times when we need to have a specific type of information or instructions in one dedicated long channel or stream. On threads that have less than 30 posts or so, this is less important, as you can just scroll through the entire thread. On longer threads, it should help us to find the info we need.
There are 13 "Anchor Posts" @Post #2 -> #14
If you are going to comment on one of the subjects, then post to the specific "anchor post". When you want to reply to someone else's post, do NOT post directly to their post; post your reply to the anchor post. Include a brief reference to the post number. For example, begin your comment with:
"@ #128 - Freeper Joe - Yes Joe, I agree... also..."
Then we can press "View Replies", and if there are any replies, then there will be one channel or stream of ideas, info, opinions for that particular subject.
For instance, @Post #5 below, should we support Sen. Lee's filibuster? Press the "View Replies" and you will immediately see what is being said about this one specific subject. You don't have to scroll through the entire thread. Again, on short threads it won't matter. But on longer threads it will help us a lot.

FR Jim Robinson Says: Tea Party Freshmen: HOLD THE LINE!!
...There is not a nickle in spending cuts in this bill.
It's absolutely idiotic to pile on more debt and continue spending when you're already so deeply in debt that you can never get out.
