Almaviva - I removed your long post, it is gone, it isn't coming back, it is my site, I have the right to allow what I allow. I will reiterate, I believe in free speech. I don;t think I have the responsibility to build your soap box and I will remove any future comments that either dispute that, are long or are off subject, MY OPINION RULES.

If you were to use your real name, that would automatically move you from the anonymous and irresponsible group and I will allow more.

I keep telling you and JTk, Set up a triond account with legitimate name and address. I want to be able to find you in a phone book, not because I ever want to talk to you, I don't have that desire with either of you, but I want you to post knowing that if someone knows you and sees it they will know.... It is called accountability.

When you post comments use the triond account so we know who it is. I will allow far more of someone responsible than someone irrespoisible...

Almaviva – How do I know the person asking to take it down is the same Almaviva – as long as you are anonymous I can’t be sure. The PRIMARY reason I took down your one comment was, it wasn’t a comment, it was a thesis. I did the same with JTk.

I have the right to take down what I want and not take down what I don’t. On the other hand you could set up a triond account and post your ideas as I have also suggested to JTk. I am not in any way limiting your free speech. Admittedly I am not providing you a soap box. Check out my article on the serious limitations on few speech that B Hussein Obama wants to implement. Liberals like filthy speech, irresponsible speech but blanch on free speech for anyone who does not connect to the liberal collective. Basically liberals like Obama, Pelosi and Dirty Harry don’t understand the constitution.

First: Unless you want to use a personal argument (argumentum ad hominem), it doesn't matter who writes what. "Who" writes is not important, "what" he writes, is!

Second: I understand my post was long. This might be an acceptable reason to take it down. However, this was not what you said at the time. You said my post contained lies and inaccuracies. That was your reason to delete the post. This is unaccaptable.

Third: I asked you to delete all my other posts on that article. You didn't do this. Either you delete them all or you delete none of them. Deleting some unfair to me and to my argument.

I have two issues with your comments. First, I hav e no idea who Almaviva is and I can't dialog if I feel I want to. Second you have the same right to post the extensive writing and then post a link to it on a comment.

I do not shut the door on comment, but I do not think the place for your theses is as a comment to my writing.

Set up an account. Write. Post to it. And give who you are, this anonymity you and JTk love is crap, pure crap.

Dear Mr. Brandt,
It is true that my response to one of your stories was rather long. This was, however, due to the fact that 1) I strongly disagree with most of the points you were making and 2) There were many twisted facts and wrong data in your post. This means this took up some space to give you the right stats and figures. My aim was to provide you with sufficiant facts (mostly official statistics) to make my case in order to counter your argument in the hope your readers would see things from another perspective. I never did any “Bash Ralph”-ing of any kind. If someone disagrees with you, it doesn’t make him hate you. So, I’ll stick to my guns: Why would you write down your own thoughts, if you cannot tolerate the thougths of others?
Many regards,
Almaviva

If you comment on a piece I write or if you wish to make a short “this isn’t as presented” your comment will be allowed and it will stand even if it is negative. If it is a “Bash Ralph” it will be deleted. If it is an extensive posting of your ideas it will be deleted. IN this case, get your own site and post. If you are anonymous and irresponsible deletion is almost certain. Almavia and JTk tried to use the comment forum to present ideas that were outside the scope of the post. Such comments will be deleted.

JTk is right! I had the same experience with this Ralph Brandt! Why would you write down your own thoughts, if you cannot tolerate the thougths of others?

I don’t know what your point is, what you are saying and more important, I am pretty sure you don’t either. You are committed to Obama, right or wrong and he is wrong. He has LIED. YOu liberals say Bush is not fit to lead because he lied. Obama lied but he can lead. Double standard. Is he allowed to lie because of his left wing leanings, his race? I think not and Martin Luther King Jr would have agreed with me.

More important is that in our time we have somebody who would be held accoutable for the social contract he made with his constituents. He will deliver as he speaks, so that’s I’am looking for this moment and four years later. We as political watchers are not interested in the political analyses given here above, because it is a very ill-manner to aproach a political diva of our time. To call someone a lies looks to me very improper, so I’ll forgive the writer. In the old Roman Empire, you was really history fellow, so let us be wisely with this sort of deadly comments.
