In my haste to get these nomination categories up, I forgot one. My apologies.

For this category, the following information is required for a nomination to be valid:

*A link to the post that contains the most convincing individual post (not thread).
*The name of the member who made the post

I liked this post by NiteGuy on the thread “To Save Schiavo, the rest are damned"

Hayleyanne's post number eight in Should we Legalize Prostitution? Part Two.

Vermillion

World War Two and Nukes...

Just making this official: Is AARP being vilified as the new ACLU?, by NiteGuy.

Thanks for the reminder last night at the chat.

kmsouthern for this post in Affirmative Action. One of the most authoritative, well-researched, and level-headed posts in a long and contentious thread. (And she's so nice about devastating her opponents. )

I nominate Amlord's post in the thread Supreme Court Ends Death Penalty for Minors. He nails it here by highlighting exactly what is wrong with that decision:
