re: FR should put a bright red indicator into posts made by newbies for their first 3 to 6 months.)))
Might help a little. But I've been suspicious of some FReepers with lots of seniority when you pass the cursor over their name--then I do a posting history search and discover that they do very little posting, some not for years.
Is it too paranoid to wonder if the opposition has a nice library of long-time "personas" to make use of when the opportunity strikes?
We could disallow photos of Obama children, period.
But I'm not going to give up the fashion critiques of Michelle. They just ran on too long about Jackie Obama, and she's no Jackie.

Even the supermodel Iman, a born-in-Africa black woman (and wife of David Bowie), dared to say she's not all that. We are sick of the press trying to turn Mrs. O into Princess Diana and turn the dignity of the FOTUS position into a tabloid frenzy. It lowers the image of the United States.
And look how things turned out for Princess Diana; her focus on self instead of duty to the postion she married into contributed to the loss of her marriage by upstaging her insecure husband, in turn setting in motion her own untimely death and the devastation of her children.
