We are concerned about a recent drift towards vitriol in the RSN Reader comments section. There is a fine line between moderation and censorship. No one likes a harsh or confrontational forum atmosphere. At the same time everyone wants to be able to express themselves freely. We'll start by encouraging good judgment. If that doesn't work we'll have to ramp up the moderation.
General guidelines: Avoid personal attacks on other forum members; Avoid remarks that are ethnically derogatory; Do not advocate violence, or any illegal activity.
Remember that making the world better begins with responsible action.

Mitt - We can handle the truth, why can't you?
Everything!
The college records, etc. that the Right-wingers keep calling for have nothing to do with anything except to harass president Obama and to give the Right more material with which to change the dialogue away from what's important to the absolute drivel the Right is always spewing. I'm all for transparency but Obama is correct to lock everything away from the Right-wing who can't seem to get their collective heads out of the sand.
as for Obama releasing College records, that is ridiculous!
it isn't!!!!
I have a feeling the tax return issue is a trap...The Democrats are so focused on Romney's tax returns that if Romney should release them closer to the election he will discredit the democrats and gain momentum! This should be one of many issues not the main focus!
What makes you think the Kennedy family would be any different? Schwartzenager' s wife, who overlooked his drug use, his unimaginable ego, and his publicly known record of attacking underage girls to marry him IS ALSO A REPUBLICAN.
Let's see, so you think Obama didn't perform well in college?? So you want to see his records from college, I guess that's shy he went to Harvard Law School, he couldn't get in anywhere else?
THEY KNOW THAT.
It's just a distraction, like "fast and furious", being a secret Muslim who was also too much of a secret Baptist, being secretly unamerican, Whitewater, Monica Lewinsky, Ron Brown, paling with terrorists, being just a peanut farmer who doesn't know anything outside Plains Georgia, secretly protesting the American flag in West Germany, pretending to have several medals as a war hero, inventing the internet,.....
The list goes on and on and on and on and on.....
No. Not all of that involved Obama. Who cares? The idea is the same. Any Democratic threat must be removed by any means necessary. It's all bullshit and they know it well, but bullshit sells. Bullshit like this gets republicans, who are too lazy to read the actual news, to vote.
Democrats are worse. We read the news, understand the issues, understand what's at stake in the election, and DON'T BOTHER TO VOTE, because we don't want to dirty our precious little egos voting for the lesser of two evils "which is still evil". Until a "perfect" candidate comes along, Democrats will refuse to vote.
Until then, absurd lies like this that should have NO impact on a national election other than backfiring on the people who tell them, will continue to get the liars elected.
I guess nobody cares that thousands of Mexicans were killed along with an American Federal agent because of a failed program.
Who on the right is "sweeping this under the rug"? This whole phony accusation has been drummed up by the right all along. Of course they (you?) were ok with it when it was bush's idea. It only became a problem when Obama continued it.
Still waiting for evidence of a crime. Sting operations are still not a crime.
Right wing thinking, GOP does it, its ok. A Dem does it, and its illegal.
God no, I can't imagine another 8 years of a Bush in the White House...The new wars would be unthinkable
It will be so flagrant that it will look positively banana republic.
Banan Republic, here we come!
Our country has already been sold down the river and it will only end when many people have starved to death on the streets or rotting in debtor's prison.
Why is it that racist comments are consistently made about Obama? He is not "black" but half white, as well. Why is the Caucasian part of his heritage always omitted and swept under the rug by racists, particularly, so as to add more phony fuel to their ignorance?!
Well, let's see. Sarah Palin's still out there (way, way out there); Tim Pawlenty's being hawked as a "down to earth" choice even though he's one of those Republicans who thinks the earth is 10,000 years old; then, of course, there's Chris Christie, who infamously said he'd win if he ran for the GOP presidential nomination but that he wouldn't run because he didn't think he was qualified to be president.
Just about any choice Mitt could make out of the freak show of the national GOP would have people praying for his safety everty day if he were to be elected.
Actually, wait, no, they might do that. Because it would make them money. *hides face in hands*
You've certainly stepped in it this time.
along w/how our President is take God out of our schools, public places and taking God out of our Government and stated our Government was founded by God.
Then she went on to say stay on the line for your copy DVD we will send you.
A nice older lady verified my address and ask for a $50. donation,I told her I was on a fix income and couldn't afford that, she said well then just give $25. I said I just don't have any money to spare, her reply was well we aren't going to give it to you for free.
These are the type of people that want the highest office in the land...they want you to pay before they give you the information on what they can do to help the American people.
The whole Romney game plan is to gather as much money as possible and "Screw You".
Western Capitalism has fail the American people and has become world Capitalism.
Screw the little guy no matter what part of the world you live.
This has turned into class war-fair in our world.
Thanks for reading my rant.
Seriously though, if he wants "God back in our government" (against the First Amendment), then I think Mittens' Mormon beliefs are fair game for ridicule. If he doesn't want to discuss his religion he has no business telling the rest of us that it should be incorporated into our government.
