RW skewed and many of the comments are vile and ignorant.

1. I think you can post polls and every news site is overrun with stupid comments

Yahoo comments makes me weep for our future. Doesn't matter what the story is, someone blames Obama and all hell breaks loose.

2. Yep! I think Yahoo takes the award for vile comments, stupidity and ignorance. And Yahoo Answers is
downright bizarre. I just can't believe the grammar, spelling and truly ignorant/stupid comments on Yahoo Answers.

3. I'm pretty sure the average Yahoo commenter is 12 years old
I don't know if that makes it better or worse.

4. Yup. Topix is Right Wing
Right wingers always give good ratings to posts made by other right wingers. Unfortunately, liberals refuse to give similar good ratings to other liberals. I see that in so many other forums as well especially in the San Francisco Chronicle which is a very liberal newspaper.

Why libs tend to be so timid is beyond me but that's the way they always are.
