Disappointed
Edited on Tue Jan-16-07 11:09 PM by benny05
On some threads that supported John Edwards' campaign and his notice in the press, there have been many poison pills around here. What bothers me more is that there are Mods who have locked down threads if Clark supporters feel more offended when Edwards supporters have made their case or an opinion, or perhaps versa visa.

Tonight, I had a post deleted when I supposed this was the case. Yet the nasty threads (and I am a John Edwards supporter) were posted and my protest was ignored about how some threads were flame baits and others were not.

I am a subscriber of this blog, albeit it is only $120 a year, plus some extras during pledge drives.

I anticipate that unless all mods treat all flame baits, I think that will continue. My complaint is that the mods are not objective. Either they all, or if not, say so. And we can vote with our feet, with our subscriptions.

2. I am not an Edwards supporter but, I am sick of the trashing of candidates
I don't know why people feel that they have to deride and destroy someones candidate. I usually do not go to the threads about Edwards. I am not a supporter so I just don't go. It is stupid to post mean things on someone's candidate.
We get it alot on the threads supporting Obama.
I just wish people would respect others rights to support who they want and stay off the thread if it's about someone you hate.
Clinton is the exception of course. lol.
