Are we allowed to disagree with Dr. Keyes again? I was told before that he was off limits for criticism.

I don't think we are allowed to disagree with Mr. Keyes yet. Maybe after the election, we can - but I don't really know. I have the feeling that after the election, those who disagree with Mr. Keyes will be required to engage in self-flagellation with barbed wire...

That was my understanding as well. Therefore, since I don't want to be banned, I am "officially" noticing that this thread exists, but I have nothing else to say about it.

Has the political genius that engineered this Keyes move
to Ill. and race stepped forward and claimed credit?

Worst political move since 1789.

I have hammered Keyes many times. I've never had a problem with the Mods. I think it is both the point of view that one approaches it with and what ELSE is said in the posting that gets people in trouble.

As an example there was a thread dealing with the Keyes/Obama race some weeks ago. A Freeper placed a pic of Obama next to one of a young Osama Bin Laden (minus beard) in an effort show the "resemblance". The mods pulled it as they should have. I don't like Obama. I don't want Obama to win. But to compare him to Satan (Bin Laden) is more than a little over the top.

There are no legitimate Freepers out there who are pulling for Obama. But a legitimate criticism of Keyes campaign style is hardly off limits in anybodies mind, Mods included I am sure.

I have disagreed with Dr. Keyes openly on FR, including in posts directly to Jim Robinson when he posted a thread supporting Keyes. I haven't been banned, time-outed, or had any posts pulled, and in fact JimRob posted a respectful response to me. Word your opposition intelligently and respectfully and it will be welcome on FR.
