Even a moderated forum can fall to rot.....

Some guy put up a question about licensing boaters, and there are no end of conservative posts slamming CT. and other states for being "under Clinton's big-government influence" etc. Less Hall, the moderator, chimed in to scold the poster suggesting that a minimum education standard might be a good thing with a smart-ass remark along the general line of, "with all the good stuff you have posted here, why would you post this liberal rant?" All the folks clamoring for a moderated group- go take a look see. All you wind up with is a group that generally reflects the politics and prejudices of the moderator. This just buttresses the point I have made for self policing... via ignoring inappropriate content. I would no more want George Bush editing my postings than Bill Clinton. Heck, Gene, at least Clinton would be able to *read* your scribblings here. Harry, As I have said before, I don't think GW is either stupid nor a "nice guy" and Clinton was a stupid prick (scholarship notwithstanding), figuratively and literally. Although I stood toe to toe with you, differing, over the last election*, the present situation has me seeing your side..... extremely liberal though it is...... more favorably than I have since my college days. I find that somehow disturbing. Anyhow..... maintain your composure..... ever remembering those people here that get a lot of mileage by getting you "going." ================================================== * All things considered..... I will conceded that although we have vehemently disagreed on points in the past, you have always been a gentleman in our debates. |
