Re: “You want to complain, then do some research, follow what types of comments ARE getting pulled, and compare with what aren’t. THAT would be an indictment of the editorial control exercised by the Obama campaign.”

Already done. I created an account at MyBO, and posted negative material (no profanity or hate, though) about Obama. It, and my account, were gone within 36 hours. “Exercise of editorial control” has therefore already been proven beyond any doubt whatsoever.

The site also shows that comments were deleted for “offensive” or “disrespectful” content. The same moderator who deleted my account, “Emily,” deleted another user’s posting about the “Jewish lobby” and counseled him to use “Israel lobby” instead—he posted her letter at MyBO, and that is how I know about it. When I posted the fact (here) that the Obama campaign is telling people to talk about the “Israel lobby,” the thread in which “Emily’s” letter was re-posted vanished within days.

“Exercise of editorial control” has been proven, and it is the exact same issue that compelled MoveOn.org to disable its prized Action Forum in 2006. I am one of the people who nailed MoveOn.org, by the way, and we can nail Obama the same way.

Glad to hear it. Good work. Would make a good submission to one of the blogs, with copies of what you posted and had pulled, and copies of what stood until it got attention elsewhere.
