There are people that do not believe that every wingnut statement or attention-getting trick should be on the front page of DU.

I find birther stories interesting and amusing.

Other people have suggested that DU should be promoting its own agenda and not consist of "Holy crap! Rush Limbaugh Said Something Dumb Today", because they feel this is essentially extending the reach of Rush's microphone.

The points of view are:

1. It is important to call out right wing garbage;

2. It is important to promote a positive agenda and not re-propagate right wing garbage.

Both of these opinions are reasonable and have merit.

These people rec or unrec based on their opinion of what is a "front page story".

Are you really not capable of understanding that people can have differences of opinion about what belongs on the front page?

I don't rec or unrec very much at all, but sweet Jesus am I sick of people going on about it.
