Question about a thread that was closed.

http://www.dvdtalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=464360

Why was it closed without any moderator comment? It didn't break any of the new political forum rules.

An intolerant, screaming moderator no doubt.

The title was of the original article and not my title. I'm just curious that's all.

Just my guess -- Your comment in the OP was "How intolerant of screaming Howard." Does that comment really initiate any kind of civilized discussion about anything?

My point was that Dean is intolerant of dissent, I should have made that point better. Thanks for the reply.

There was no expectation of any reasonable discussion and the thread bordered on trolling. So I closed it.

Just because something shows up on Drudge doesn't mean it needs to be posted in Politics.

Actually, I would've loved to discuss this.

It's on the front page of my paper today.
