“However [political parties] may now and then answer popular ends, they are likely in the course of time and things, to become potent engines, by which cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the power of the people and to usurp for themselves the reins of government, destroying afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion.” – George Washington
Fellow Doogs, let us not forgot the wisdom of the Father of the Nation who was our first and only non-partisan President, and the namesake of our beloved university. I beseech you to vote in favor of keeping the name of the Tavern non-partisan so that it can remain an unfettered place of spirited and vigorous debate. Long live the Tug Tavern!
Can't argue with the logic, but the snowflake reaction has been a blast. Perhaps it is time to mend the fences, strengthen the wall, revert to a more politically correct board name.
I can agree in finding some humor with the snowflake reaction of the public at large, but I do think being a "snowflake" in the truest sense of the term is mutually exclusive with being a rabid college football fan and especially a poster here. I'd like to think that our liberal posters here are of the near extinct TUFF Liberal varietal.
Most of the snowflakes seem to be millennials. Nothing TUFF about that generation, they define the term snowflake.
IMO, The Tug for Trump Tavern is a worthy option, surely we can all find humor in that.
Or instead, since Douchecanoe Tavern seems to be the most uniquely HH, maybe in the spirit of the 2000 and 2016 presidential elections, we can can have a recount/revote with that option added?
Stalin, is plurality of votes all that is needed? For example, what if Trump Tavern has the highest percentage of votes, but Tug Tavern and Write In have more votes combined?
I also like "The Molotov Cocktail Lounge". Molotov after all was Stalin's Foreign Minister and there's lots of bomb throwing that happens in the tavern.
