GD Moderator: Why was thread on Bush grandchildren LOCKED??

[Obamarama]

I rarely ever question a moderator's reasoning, but the thread on listing George 41 & Barbara's grandchildren in relation to how many are serving in Iraq has me confused. The reason it was locked was "posting people's private information."

I think this was a legitimate thread, and I think the original poster made a damned good point.

The whole disgusting lot of the Bush clan are public figures and are fair game for a discussion of this nature.

I think you should unlock the thread. I would like to hear an explanation as to why you really think it should be locked.

1. I just wrote the administrator...

asking the same thing. it's not as if addresses and phone numbers were posted. just google "bush's grandchildren" and i'm sure you'll get the whole list!

2. I agree, lets talk about the royal family

and if any of them have enlisted.

3. If the children of Carter and Clinton are fair game, so are the children..

...of the Busch Crime Family.

Agree 100%.
