I do have one concern:
"Who We Are: PoliticalGroove.com is an online community for Democrats and other progressives. Members are expected to be generally supportive of progressive ideals, and to support Democratic candidates for political office. PoliticalGroove.com is not affiliated with the Democratic Party, and comments posted here are not representative of the Democratic Party or its candidates." My hope is that this is a place for people who value critical thinking across the political spectrum, which certainly would include Republicans, Liberterians, and the totally non-aligned - and in my case the unhinged. Is this a place where Republicans and "conservative" thought, for example are not welcome? |
Try to think of these rules as basic guidelines and something we can fall back on in the event of any real issues we may have with users down the road. These are just technicalities. Overall we promote free speech, healthy debate and we welcome anyone regardless of which party they support.
You will find that I don't run a militant site, my goal with the mods is simply to have coverage, not to play Col. Klink. Most of all, we encourage participation, having fun and the occasional bitch slap between members, just as long as it's not too outrageous.
