    She is left of center as far as US politics go. She is no centrist.

    Liberal does not mean left-wing.


    US politics are wholly unrepresentative of the political spectrum.

    Have the decency to show some evidence for your accusations.


    The newly added forum rule?

    Let's not pretend freedom of speech is something it isn't. Freedom of speech is the right to think and speak as you see fit without ending up behind bars. It is not the right to an audience, or the right to say what you want within a private setting. I have a t-shirt with a naked masturbating nun on the front and Jesus Is A Cunt on that back. I have another t-shirt that says Christian Death. I have another with inverted crosses, inverted pentagrams and allusions to Satan on the back. I would not be surprised, if I walked into a church wearing any of them, if I was asked to leave. Furthermore, it would be within their rights, unless it was Church of England, which I fund with my taxes.

    CEMB is a privately owned and privately financed setting, with rules dictating speech that is not acceptable, which you agree to when you join, and can get you banned if you violate. And that's fine, CEMB  was created to be a specific thing with a mostly none white membership anticipated. And, as fate would have it, most of the members here are none whites who need a place they can express themselves, bitch about slam and their experiences, but do so without having to be on the defensive, which CEMB was created to do. It's not a total free-for-all. The fact that I could get banned for saying nigger this and paki that shows that CEMB doesn't tolerate total freedom of speech. I'm not rallying against this. If I didn't agree with it, I would not have agreed to the forum rules and joined, and I appreciate that people with views that go against the grain, which may upset a number of the members here, are allowed to express themselves, within the forum rules, are allowed to do so, but it isn't total freedom of speech. It's freedom to speak within the confines of what is allowed. Which, again, I don't have a problem with. Private institutions are free of set whatever rules, within the confines of the law, hatt they wish, and I think CEMB strikes a very good balance, but again, this is a balance within confines. Confines I personally have no issue with, but still confines.

     `Oh, you can't help that,' said the Cat: `we're all mad here. I'm mad.  You're mad.'
     `How do you know I'm mad?' said Alice.
     `You must be,' said the Cat, `or you wouldn't have come here.'

    No it has it's own political spectrum. There is no one spectrum that rules over all.

    Don't be daft. You might not technically have one ring to rule them all, but through media you sure as shit have one ring to bind them.
