Exactly, which is why I wasn't reacting to the claim that we are liberal-leaning (I am one of those who doesn't consider being called "liberal" an epithet), but rather the implication, joking as it may have been, that as a board we respond to anything non-liberal with "furious anger". In fact, I dare anyone to find a board that comes close to the amount of calm, rational discussion of opposing viewpoints as we have here.
