PoliGazette Comments Policy
PoliGazette encourages comments from all viewpoints, especially those that disagree.
Comments submitted must, however, adhere to the following standards. Comments that violate
these standards may be edited or deleted without notice at the sole discretion of the editors.
Commenters who repeatedly or egregiously violate these standards or who attempt to argue
publicly with editors regarding the comments policy may be banned from commenting further.
(1) Comments should address the substantive content of the post. Comments that repeatedly
or blatantly misrepresent the content of the post or of others' comments are not welcome. Comments that
respond to something other than which the contributor or commenter may have said are irrelevant and should
not be posted.
(2) Comments should avoid vulgarity as well as racial, ethnic, religious, or sexual bigotry.
(3) Comments should not personally attack the character, personal integrity, or professional
reputation of any PoliGazette contributor or of other commenters.
(4) Comments should reflect the contributions of the commenters themselves and should not
include extensive cut-and-paste reproductions of others' words except insofar as necessary to supplement
the commenter's own arguments. Link spam, trackback spam, and propaganda spam will be instantly deleted.
(5) Public figures are considered open to all substantive criticism of their policies and statements.
Comments that present objectively false factual information about public figures (i.e. "Obama is a Muslim") or
that attack public figures by attacking their families are not welcome. Comments that merely repeat
slogans for or against a candidate without engaging in substantive comment are not welcome.
Questions or challenges to these policies or their application should be directed to the editors
by email only.

well he doesn’t seem to have all that much faith in it.
the kicker is - the Hatch Act - is a joke in and upon itself.
I’m still having trouble posting over at “moderate”voice, so, since this is in response to one of your articles (and it’s about Bush, too), I’ll post my response here.
REMIND ME, AGAIN, WHY IS IT BUSH’S FAULT?
In a Leftist “news” source we read . . .
So far, so good. But the next line throws the problem right into Bush’s lap, as no doubt your sources do, as well.
But has it, really?
A little further down in the article it says,
And then the article speculates about what might motivate the generic “U.S. law enforcement.” [I thought that WAS the "Justice Department?"]
The article goes on:
sorry about the formatting error (the last article-quote ends at ” . . . blockquote>” and the rest should have been normal), but the meaning should still be quite clear.
Oh, another thing. Carriles is free “on bail” not pardoned (like Mark Rich).
A little further investigation shows that those calling for “justice,” include the American Left, contrary to their usual support for the “human rights” of violent multiple offenders (unless it makes Bush look bad). Also calling for his “conviction” prior to trial, are CASTRO and CHAVEZ.
Hmmmm. Now why am I suspicious of the motivations of those people?
No, I’m not saying Carriles is innocent, but I would like to see more facts from less “partial” sources.
The fact that the State Department is looking for a third country to try him in tells me…
1. We DO think he SHOULD be tried.
2. We don’t think he’ll get a fair trial in Venezuela or Cuba (duh, ya think?!)
2. We don’t want to try him, because we could be (are being) accused of favoritism. And if he’s acquitted, just think of the stink there’ll be.
Remember. It was a court, not Bush, who released him on bail. Evidentally the court didn’t think an accusation of possible involvement in something that happened 31 years ago, and that he might not be involved in, was sufficient to consider him a danger now (a court can’t just arbitrarily detain someone, just because the Left says they should).
And, if he skips bail, where will he go? Cuba? Venezuela?
