find of late that the administrators do not appear to present a clear mission on how they want this site to be.
The rules do state that members are expected to generally support Democratic candidates for public office, or current incumbent Democratic office-holders. As it's written, that's pretty clear, but enforcement is obviously inconsistent, despite a noble effort by the moderators.
People in a Kurtz-like Leftist jungle will never support the Democratic Party or this Democratic President. Those who worked for the blue team and this president -- often including but not limited to those who contributed to donation drives generated and coordinated by this site during the 08 campaign -- find it increasingly puzzling that the site's administrators condone anti-Democratic and anti-Obama threads on their Greatest page. Pro-Democrats here have to run a gauntlet of subversion and derision just to assert their affiliation with the Democratic Party or to post praise in support of Barack Obama.
The administrators appear to sanction this, despite their own posted rules to the contrary.
The questions being asked in many posts on this site about the overall mission statement are appropriate, IMO, but the administrators are the ones who ought to be asking them.
