I would think a post comparing the first lady to a chimp would be deleted because that is racist.

“is their a thread,” = “is there a thread. (oops!)

“maybe they should be spelled out.”

more likely beer, but who’s watching. :) seriously though, it’s irritating to me to see humorous threads taken down because of political correctness.

Don’t say anything negative about the mormon threads that appear every thirty minutes.

And, if there was something in those comparing her to a chimp, that is racist and doesn’t fly here.

Yea, that’s why I though it was weird, you’d think after 10 years, they’d know what the rules are around here...

I think it would be stupid to have a set in stone rule book. It’s an evolving medium.

"I would think a post comparing the first lady to a chimp would be deleted because that is racist."

since there are albino chimps, comparing bush to a chimp is racist as well? right?

Don’t say anything negative about Sarah Palin, Ron Paul or Duncan Hunter. If you do then you are instantly called a RINO or Zot.
