As you said, this is the Robinson's site and they can either allow or disallow whatever they want. Hopefully they won't start barring people simply because they reference a quote from a liberal site.

Quite right on all points. In the fresh light of a new day, my posting last night concerning HillBuzz was, at best, a cranky, ham-fisted ``get off my lawn!'' moment.

My fault is that I reacted viscerally and emotionally both to the image of Hillary Clinton and to the ``Boystown'' link over there and should have counted to 10 (or maybe 20) before hitting the ``Post'' button. Like many here, I found the article at HillBuzz about George Bush in the wake of the Ft. Hood terrorist attack deeply moving. I think that is more the measure of those people and I should have remembered that.

In the lively exchange of ideas and opinions here on FR (which I've used as a source of news since 9/11/2001, albeit only a recent poster), disallowing certain sources to be cited would make this venue little more than an echo chamber.
