FR has not lost its reason for being and nor its credibility. I, too, will vote for Rudy if he is the Republican candidate, but Jim knows a lot more about running sites like this than some disgruntled member. I get disgruntled occasionally, too (usually I am fairly well guntled), but wouldn’t think of making a personal attack on Jim and challenging his right to run his creation in the way he sees fit.
I’d also like to note that those who were banned were not interested in discussion. They were obnoxious and obsessed with putting forth leftist talking points. That’s why the were banned, not because JimRob wants to “limit discussion.”
