Can I Please Be a Censor?

Sometimes I wonder why I let crockpots...er...crackpots, come on here and take personal shots at me like this person.

Then I remember that it's because I truly believe in the First Amendmen...hey! Wait a second!

The First Amendment doesn't apply to me. I'm not a government. I am a private citizen, and this blog is my own private space.

I have no obligation to let some person who obviously doesn't bother to read what I write show up and take anonymous potshots at me.

So why do I do it?

Because I think it is interesting to demonstrate just how far individuals in government will go in order to try to discredit their critics.

Hey, Crockpot. Feel free to boycott the debate.

Maybe we should have a special seating section at the debate marked "Trolls Only."

Well, I have never seen you lose your cool. Nor have I ever seen you treat a poster unfairly. And as a result, I think that your blog attracts some of the best issue-oriented discussion around. And hey, take it from a REAL wacko (me), you have a good site. The occassionaly "creative" comment doesn't really detract.

Do you mean that this crackpot is a government official?
