I went through few emotions. Growled a bit. Did a little teeth grinding like Johnboy did when Obama had him on the run.(can't wait to watch EllyMay and Biden)
To clarify to the poster that said something about retaliating against the sight--a big fat no. Please do not do that.
The News Journal is just trying to have an efficient cost effective way of running their web site. That control auto set up was abused by some other member and hopefully this will comeback around and they won't get to participate on the PNJ.com web site.
We also have some fair minded Moderate Republicans in NW Florida as well as very Conservative Yellow Dog Democrats.
As the census goes in Escambia County Florida it was around 75K Democrat, 83K Republican and about 20K NPA in 2004.
Here is the latest from:
http://escambiavotes.
com/votertrends.php
It's up a bit for NPA's and others and it looks like we have had about 5K in (R) and (D)'s move away from the area.
Voter turn out will hopefully be much better this year here and everywhere else.
I battle the Republican Extremist in the Forum section daily and what can I say? I'm an old, Young Turk. Trained by the best, graduate of the School of Hard Knocks.
Except for one mistake by admin at PNJ.com hitting the wrong "block user" icon for an offensive picture someone posted above or below one of my post, I've never been banned in three years of posting or Blogging.
Tact is really important in blogging. Sometimes it is hard to get the far to actually think, but some of them come around.
Others I feel like they have to be getting paid and have absolutely no conscious or sense of morality. They care more about what they convince people think instead of getting them to think for themselves and ecouuraging them to research.
They find information to use and manipulate others with, where we or me, look for information to learn and/or to educate.
I've really enjoyed and learned a lot from George Lakoff's lectures, specifically "Moral Politics-How Liberals and Conservatives think.

It's about an hour long, but worth the time IMO.
To update, I had a blog actually post and I started using another account I had started when I was improperly banned a few months ago.
My profile is still not visible but it most likely will be on Monday.
I appreciate the support. It really does suck to experience abuse of any kind.
Hopefully admin at PNJ.com will weed out these GOP tools and we will all be better for their failure to engage in actual thought and real conversation.
