But now we've got this complete thead full of mostly Conservative ideas and rants about Liberals and it stays. Hummmm, I guess the determining factor is whether your post conforms to the belief system of the monitors of this site.

Hi Shane,
I don't remember your post, so it's possible it wasn't me who removed it (as I'm not the only moderator)...
However, it sounds like your post may have been part of a political discussion, where the whole discussion was removed. If that was the case, then it wasn't just your post but the whole thread which may have been the issue.
In any case, nobody should take any removal of their posts (in the course of moderating) personally!
For the record, I leave up a lot of posts regarding political views I may not agree with. (I don't see how anyone could agree with all the views posted in this thread, for example!) As the saying goes...
"Opinions are like a**holes - everyone's got one, but nobody wants to look at the other guy's."
Having said that, people should remember this is not primarily a political board... (I personally get my own occasional dose of politics from
http://www.strategytalk.org .)
