Site guidelines

Comments are not only allowed, they are encouraged.  I allow the maximum freedom possible but, quoting National Review’s classified advertising policy, one man’s freedom is another man’s straightjacket.

I do not allow libel.  I strongly encourage that if you see a libel that I have missed to please let me know so it can be removed.  I confess to a more sensitive eye on some subjects and some people even though I try to be fair.  Your help is greatly appreciated.  By the way, this includes some use of nicknames.

I will edit profanity.  I realize other sites allow it.  I do not.  I realize that some topics push the boundaries and the language sometimes unfortunately follows.  This site is meant to be PG-13, and I am not Larry Flynt.  Keep the off-color language to yourself.

I have no tolerance for conspiracy theories.  On this site, consider the following as given:  Neil Armstrong walked on the moon, the government in any or all of its entities did not destroy the World Trade Centers, Barack Obama was born in Hawaii, Lee Harvey Oswald killed Kennedy and did it by himself.  The Federal Reserve is not out to rule the world, neither are the Illuminati, the Tri-Lateral Commission, or the Pope. President Clinton did not run a secret drug-running operation in Arkansas and Vince Foster committed suicide.  The Protocols of Zion are fake.  Jews are not trying to control the world. FDR did not know the Japanese were going to attack Pearl Harbor and neither did Winston Churchill. Joe Biden really is that stupid.  Don’t bother arguing with me.  As a neoconservative I attended all of the conspiracy meetings so I know the truth.

I will not tolerate spam comments, spam as determined by me.  If I see that a comment is posted word-for-word on multiple sites, I will probably yank it.  Be original.

Insulting the writer is rarely effective.  Going wildly off-topic will inspire wrath, although comments are nested in such a way to allow more tolerance on this.

A final note about comments:  I encourage civility.  However, I am not surprised anymore when it is lacking.  Calling someone names rarely improves your argument.  Comparisons to Hitler or Stalin are rarely apt, although I think the cry of “Godwin’s Law!” is overused.  My suggestion is to behave as if the person you are disagreeing with is actually in the room.  I realize that for some of you that means punching each other in the nose.  If that’s the case, please take it outside.
