Poor persecuted glenn

I just wrote a note to Tammi McGee complaining about comments being censored and she removed mine. This is really getting out of control.

If it's too much for your delicate sensibilities to bear you can always leave.

Careful, going against the liberal mantra will get you banned from commenting.

You keep getting your comments removed because you keep insulting people, and throwing names at people. Make a comment, and keep your insults to yourself, and your comments will remain.

Ok, so why aren't you consistent?  Without mentioning any names there was one person who was insulting people on a daily basis a couple of months ago.  That person's comments were never removed, yet some of us still have entire screen names banned to this day.  The SAGE thing to do is to be fair across the board.

I try to be as consistent as possible, but also (when time allows) I try to read comments in context instead of just arbitrarily deleting. There is only one person who moderates comments on a regular basis, and that is me. I can't be in every story, every minute of every day. Comments that should be deleted do sometimes get missed. Other times, I have deleted comments that shouldn't have been deleted, and tried to get them reinstated when I've been wrong. There are several people on these threads who are very verbally abusive, and I try to give them plenty of rope before I ban them, or start deleting comments, but I do that for everyone. Sometimes I'm inconsistent? Well, the human factor says that's going to happen. All I can do is my best. If you have a problem with something I've deleted or didn't delete, email me, I'll take a better look at the issue.

I see plenty of comments on this site from the left side of the fence that are insulting to people and they are not removed.

I would like to know why my and other conserative views have been removed from this article.  Are you people really that Liberal?????????

As in every single Conservative comment has been removed, what does this tell us?

That conservative commenters here tend to be a tad abusive and inflamatory.

I'd say the same thing about the liberals.  The difference is that the conservatives don't want to censor comments they don't agree with and the liberals can't hit the abuse button fast enough.

You would and with perhaps one exception, you'd be wrong.  A few regular conservative commenters are unable to state an opinion without including a insulting or inflamatory comment.   When will they learn?

If you ask me, he gets too much leeway.
