Don’t you find it disturbing that liberal bloggers now have veto power over our threads?

Jim started FR because liberals were using veto powers over his comments.

I don't think you are giving Jim Robinson the credit he deserves. In the original thread, he said that he gets a lot of emails like that every day and it sounds like he ignores plenty of them when he doesn't feel they have merit. He felt this one had merit and I agree with him on that. Just because a liberal blogger raised the thread doesn't mean that they can't make a good point and when they do, it' shouldn't be ignored just because of the source. If it's a valid point it's a valid point and that was a valid point. It's not about the left controlling what we say but about doing what's right.

Remember, the term "politically correct" was originally coined by Marxists because they'd just whether facts were correct or not based on their political utility. Conservatives are better than that. If it's right it's right and if it's wrong it's wrong, regardless of whether we get political brownie points from it or not.

Yes I do and especially when the one that emailed Jim Robinson, causing the thread to be removed when it shouldn't have been, has a photoshopped picture of Palin's Piper flipping some other kid off on his website. His intent was to silence, he hunted and pecked to find something he could say was racist. There are blacks in the White House. This racist thing is so yesterday. Get over it.
