Name Calling.

Namecalling.
I am opposed to name calling. I remember when I was on my most recent election campaign, I sent emails to some "Mitch" McConnell neo-con supporters blasting him for his support of the never-ending American war in Iraq. Well, they informed me that that makes me a "socialist". What does running around killing Arabs in a country that was not involved in 911 have to do with "government ownership of the means of production", Karl Marx, Fredreich Engalls, or anything remotely approaching "socialism"? I believe in the free enterprise economic system and in the private ownership of property. I am not a socialist. I don't appreciate being called a socialist. Irresponsible name-calling only results in bloggers limiting the publication of comments. In my own, separate blogspots I exercised the option of reviewing, deciding whether to publish, and deciding whether to modify comments. I only deleted expletives, and did not delete whole comments. If somebody wants to cuss me, they can do it on their own blogspot; I'm not going to pay for it nor publish it. Kenneth Stepp.

Richard Dillon and I have just started a new progressive Soapblox site.
I don't  know if it's going to work out or not, but we're going
to give it a real shot. It will be separate from my other site where I post my edgy material.
The new site will be more fact orientated and we are hoping for a
national audience. The site will also allow for diaries, similar to The
Daily Kos.
feel free to sign up and write about the issues you care about or make comments on post by other writers.
This is a Democratic progressive site. The community guidelines are below.
You will also be able to add your events to our calender after signing up.
