re: #126 b.d.

Yep, the Code Pink, Alex Jones and Rand Paul democrats are pretty much running the non-front page & comments show over there. No wonder kos and staff have nothing to do with that part of the site, they just ceded it to the fringe thinking that their talents alone would be enough of a draw. Look at the page view numbers lately, bad call.

I’m not sure if the mods could control it if they wanted to. In the Bush years they had to step in and ban 9-11 truth diaries and even Ron Paul diaries became so popular they had to be banned. But the progressive instinct to love people like Bradley Manning and Snowden has a very strong attraction. Some just can’t resist.
