He ended it when the hurricane hit. What should he have done? Too bad you're not the President -- everything would be handled properly then. /sarcasm off.

I submitted a post very early this morning, which was held "pending moderation" for several hours, then, if I recall correctly, posted to the site. Now it's gone again. It contained no ad hominems, although it did express some unpleasant truths Oliver probably wasn't happy to see on the site. So, what gives? It's your blog, and you can do whatever you want with it. But if you want an Oliver Willis echo chamber, please let us know, because that's going to be very boring. Maybe Oliver can explain his “moderation” policy for the rest of us.

In all fairness, though--do we really want AWOL George "helping" NOLA recover? After all, his track record is just perfect in tackling an issue and making it much worse than when he found it.
