Rather, because it was bringing up cogent points against the president. We aren't stupid.

I already know that is the case. I'm trying to force consolidation of similar topics, but the area has enough issues that plenty of variations of topics exist. Nobody is posting new threads at a rate that could be considered abuse, though some other posters might see it as that. I'm more troubled by the users who insist on posting political topics in "Off-Topic".

Is that why the "Where are the demonstrations against ISIS" thread was deleted or did it go off the rails?

Deleted because it was posted in Off-Topic and there are several ISIS thread in the Political Forum.

Thanks for all your work Jeff! I don't know how you have the patience sometimes....

The fact that the poster thinks that anti-Israel and anti-Semitic posts are the same thing is enough for me to think that he does not view things objectively.

You can keep making the same point over and over and I am still going to reply the same way. Please use the "report" button to report specific messages. I am not reading most threads and I can't read your mind to know that you are offended. The last time we went through this, I couldn't find any inappropriate message in the thread that you mentioned (other than Panty Sniffer's posts). I am happy to work with you, but you have to try to cooperate as well.

Huh?

I think it would serve everyone better to split Political Discussions into "Anti-Israel/Anti-Semitic Discussions" and "Other". This site is really at risk of being hate forum. I don't think that is in your best interest, or the community's.
