I have no one on ignore and I never put anyone over at DU2 on ignore either.

Please read the WELCOME post at the top of this 'group'.
Here is a direct link to the pinned OP: http://www.democraticunderground.com/110022

I have NO plans of excluding anyone that partakes in civil debate, I think having diverse opinions is a good thing and not a bad thing.

As far as who Hosts this 'group' it is a 'group' decision.
I have asked that anyone who wishes to request to be a Host of this group to post on this thread: http://www.democraticunderground.com/110070

And I would like to say that 'one' of the reasons that 'I am' in this group is because there was another 'group' I wanted to participate in but their rule there was that they did NOT allow diverse opinions. So, your telling me that you think that I would not allow a wide range of opinions here in this group, in my opinion, is off the mark.

Anyway, I don't know what else I can say to you that would make you more comfortable with my desire to be here.

Please read the pinned thread and the other one, that might help a bit, thanks.

Tx4obama, you have often taken a rather conservative stance JDPriestly Dec 2011 #14

Please check your DU email, I've sent a PM. Tx4obama Dec 2011 #15

Do you think you could be very tolerant of people you think are negative? JDPriestly Dec 2011 #16

I honestly don't know where you're getting your view of me. Tx4obama Dec 2011 #17

JD - the hosts only purview is to enforce the SOP. Regardless of your opinion, mine, or TX's stevenleser Dec 2011 #18

The question is how some of the things in the SOP are defined. What are the limits on, for JDPriestly Dec 2011 #19

The SOP specifically prohibits such criticism and negativity stevenleser Dec 2011 #20

What are you talking about? JDPriestly Dec 2011 #21

That is why forums like General Discussion exist for that purpose. stevenleser Dec 2011 #22
