This is not the place for your political rants. Usenet has special
groups just for your posts. You wont be censored there.


I've made the same comment here many times. It would be nice if the group
really were focused on shortwave.

Just the same, I've watched in the past when Mike Terry was attacked by the
right-wingers for making the same plea, and the usual right-wing suspects
jump all over him, justifying their political posts here by attempting to
tie them into what they hear on shortwave. And I find it amusing that none
of the usual right-wingers are coming to the aid of Yojimbo now, defending
his right to do the same. Of course, the true irony is that it's typically
the right-wingers that holler the loudest about "double-standards." It all
depends upon whose ox is being gored.

As for me, I feel strongly both ways. The political shouters here are all
so eloquent and well-reasoned, I have to change my position constantly as
they persuade me first one way and then the other.
