to decide on their own what they like and don't like. I find it interesting that a comment was made that because of the political forum atmosphere it affects the rest of the forum.

Why did we not hear how upsetting the political forum is to some participants during the heated exchanges all through 2008 prior to the election??? The exchanges before the election were certainly less civil than they are today.....in my humble opinion. It is also interested as has been observed frequently some of those who were most verbal of participants no longer post (or at least not under their 2008 identity).

Political is political. The acceptability of the content is in the eye of the one looking at you in the mirror!!

I wish the number of participants would increase 20% then we would really find out what people think and the opinions would be even more varied (and to some even more unacceptable).

I think it is self adjusting/policing and just fine!!!!!!!!! Do not ever expect to keep all of the people happy all of the time....statistically (or any other measure) impossible!!
