I’ve often thought you should be writing on the News page here and I count it no disrespect to dday (whom I missed very much) that you continue to inform.
Thank you.

Re: “marriage equality equivocation”
Biden comments on same-sex marriage expose internal White House divisions
By Peter Wallsten and Dan Eggen, The Washington Post
Published: May 7Several people close to the White House said the episode has exposed internal tensions within Obama’s team between those who want the president to say he favors same-sex marriage before the November election and others who worry about a political backlash if he does — not just among conservatives and working-class voters but among African Americans who are Obama’s most loyal support bloc but tend to oppose such unions.

Why do you care what the 28% of bigot Americans think?
There’ll be howls of protests from the Right for the analogy I’m about to make. But I believe it fits. When U.S. Speaker John Boehner takes to the House floor to rail away at the absolutely accurate labeling of his party’s war on women as a war on women, he acts just like the abusive husband protesting to investigating officers that he’s done nothing wrong.
Now, quickly, John Boehner is not an abusive husband.
That’s Stockholm Syndrome abuse enabling behavior.
Boehner is a knave or a fool. I call him evil.

Yes, it is ok to talk about Iran, but not to claim or imply that U.S. foreign policy is the captive of a conspiracy of Jews. That’s anti-semetic bannable hate speech.
You raise a VERY interesting point and so I ask in all consideration and honesty this question: Does criticism of AIPAC/LIKUD and the political arm [...]

Fair enough. It’s a banned topic because it always ends badly. The 30+ people who founded DocuDharma were in consensus about that after observing dK and other sites that encouraged the discussion of IP (MyLeftWing would be another example frequently cited). Yes, it is ok to talk about Iran, but not to claim or imply [...]

Hey.
We have buttons.
Just don’t use WYSIWYG, use Auto Format. WYSIWYG doesn’t work even @ dK.

Well… Never let it be said I’m not willing to let new facts lead me to different conclusions. In a larger sense I think people invest too much of themselves in their online persona. Also, and separately, it’s easy to confuse an investment of time and energy with entitlement and privilege and almost always a [...]

Heh, heh, heh, heh, heh.
But also instructive. I am certainly rapidly reaching the conclusion that anonymous Admining does not work and it was a position I once maintained had some merit.
I see now I was mistaken or at the least need to re-think my costbenefit analysis.

By the way, at my blogs we have a strict no IP policy.
And if you get the thud it’s me.
