new comment policy

Well, the mail is in, and the new policy to reject anonymous has got the right-wingers all hot and bothered.
Since poor reading comprehension skills seem to be the norm among this group, I'll state again anonymous comments will be rejected, and it doesn't matter if your comments agree with me or not. You can use a false name on your blogger account or simply log in as "other" using a false name, and your comments will go through. I'm not really sure what these right-wing nuts are afraid of, or why they insist on using the "anonymous" option, but the vast majority of their comments are simply noise and frequently completely off-topic. If you feel you are missing out on this commentary, I can sum it up succintly:

  • Anyone who criticises Bush is guilty of "Bush-hate", which means their opinion is to be discarded.
  • Anyone who points out bad news about the Iraq or Afghan campaigns is a "traitor" who is motivated by "wanting to lose". This also means that everything they say can be ignored.
  • Any news reports that don't come from Fox News are "biased", which apparently means they are complete lies.
  • It was patriotic to slander Clinton, but it's treasonous and unpatriotic to criticise Bush. You see, Clinton was "corrupt", and Bush is just "misunderstood".
So there you go, all you anonymous right-wing loons. It's all right there for the world to see.

At this time, I would like to thank all of the intelligent people who make comments here, whether they agree with me or not. Every blogger prizes thoughtful comments.
