Consider this is a miracle that the Administrative Mods have not locked this thread up with some of the postings that have been posted. It does at times look PC with what has been happening with a number of the Sen. Kennedy threads having been shut down, but the last thing FR needs right now is another verbal lashing from BOR like what had happened last summer when the founder, who right now has his own medical issues to contend with, Jim Robbinson had been interviewed by BOR because it was called a “hate site”. We do not want to give ammo to BOR to take FR to task once again. That is why the AM’s have been “strict”.
I am not a "kennedyphile" and I consider that political dynasty to be close to a criminal enterprise. Having said that, I will say no more regarding Ted and his health problems. My sympathy is reserved for the innocents he leaves behind.
Your reasoning as to the "strict" application of what, at first glance, appears to be excessive zeal in applying a PC speech code now makes sense to me. I appreciate your insight, thank you.
I don't think much of BOR either, his efforts to remain "fair and balanced" leave him looking like an unprincipled neophyte when he gets mugged by a radical lefty. If you agree with everything, you believe in nothing, in the final analysis one must take a stand and defend it.
