I signed up at DU hoping to have some intelligent debate (what was I thinking), and I was booted after two posts. Below I've pasted one of their "rules".
"We ban conservative disruptors who are opposed to the broad goals of this website. If you think overall that George W. Bush is doing a swell job, or if you wish to see Republicans win, or if you are generally supportive of conservative ideals, please do not register to post, as you will likely be banned."
Nice stuff considering it comes from the party of "tolerance" who supposedly welcomes all opinions. What's even worse is that I was booted for posting comments by JOHN KERRY AND HILLARY CLINTON!!! There was a thread where they were banging the "Bush lied" drum. I posted quotes from both Hillary and Kerry where they were warning us of the threats posed by Saddam's WMD programs and his ties with al-Qaida.
Below are the quotes I posted in case you haven't seen them already.
"We are in possession of what I think to be compelling evidence that Saddam Hussein has, and has had for a number of years, a developing capacity for the production and storage of weapons of mass destruction. "[W]ithout question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime ... He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation. And now he has continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction ... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real ...
-Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Jan. 23. 2003.
"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members. It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons."
