You know who you are. I just deleted 9 of B.B.'s comments--the first four stayed.

If you don't know if you're included in the group of chatterboxes who are limited to four comments a day, or why we are doing this, go here and here. If you still don't know, e-mail us.

The right will not take over this blog. It can visit and post in moderation, period.

Update: Forget the lectures on freedom of speech and censorship. TalkLeft is not the Government and this is a personal blog. Comments are allowed at my discretion and under the stated terms. No one has a right to comment on TalkLeft.

TalkLeft is primarily an information resource for those who share my views and those who are interested in them. Comments from both sides that relate to the topic under discussion and do not violate the commenting rules (including limits on chatterboxes) are welcome.

If I have to, I'll go to a system where commenters have to register and be accepted before being allowed to post. Hopefully, that won't be necessary.

But it's getting increasingly difficult to find the time to read almost 800 or so comments a day. Some may slip through, but when I come across them, I will be quicker to delete and ban and respond to objections later.

Name calling, personal insults and abusive or offensive language are not allowed, period.

Those of you on the right, if you want a little extra consideration and leeway in commenting, do like the liberal commenters and make some contributions through paypal. Republicans above all should understand there is no free lunch.
