  Poll: Should I Delete the Creationist Comments?

  I don't think I'd delete them, but I might close it for the sake that it served the purpose you had (and hadn't) intended it to. I also wouldn't de-vowel them.
  
  Here's an ethical analogy to put it bluntly: Hello Mao! Will you censor the word freedom from google in Korea?
  
  Perhaps it's arbitrarily different, but the same fundamental concept applies. It just downright seems... Stupid. That is, to delete the posts made by a group.
  
  Or... You could devowel all content from the thread, all comments, and the post. That'd be worth a laugh at the least. Though whatever you decide to do Clay, is of course your decision. Is there anyway to get an email update on your choice? I would be interested in seeing the outcome of your decision. Just for the sake of curiousity.

  A Farewell Letter to the Greatest Education President Ever

  "He actually came up with a program that hoped to improve education."
  
  Indeed, but actually it's more like the execution and follow up accountability <i>sucked.</i> Ignorance and lack of accountability is still something to hold against elected officials if they display it.
  
  History is the supreme study of the past in which to not repeat past mistakes. Idly ignoring Bush's failures and or accomplishments (few) is to mean the death to not counter or improve existing policies.
  
  To fix a problem it must first be viewed, then acted upon. Perhaps a plan comes in somewhere, but I must agree with Clay's letter, but instead I'd mail it to <b>Obama</b> for the sake of giving him a <a href="http://commonaction.blogspot.com/2008/11/mike-males-will-obama-betray-youth.html">fair warning....</a>
  
  With that in mind, let's not look to the future blindly. Let's not candy coat the past. And let's act on the present. <i>That seems wiser than a leap of fate(no, not faith.) anyways.</i>
