Indeed, the only way to be more moderate was not to say anything. And yet the attack of the vapours still occured. Is American politics occuring on a rarified plane where such grubby considerations  are unconscionable ? Not so far as I've seen in the last couple of days, yet apparently we aren't allowed to suggest such things. I just don't see why it was wrong and, silly or no, it's undermined my confidence to comment. I'd love to come back but I really need to know why it was wrong.

I didn't know that nobody had been banned, but as we have discussed elsewhere, there is a difference between intention and perception. So I was not threatened with banning, but that's not how it seemed.
