  • Are moderators of Yahoo questions biased?

    I had an answer removed that broke no rules. However, it was reported as "solicitation' even though there was no solicitation of any kind in my answer. Yahoo confirmed that it violated their rules after I appealed--only they didn't say what rules were broken!

    My answer was to an offensive question about Sarah Palin's daughter, and I said if we start down that slippery slope then people on the other side could start bringing up (as an example) the statistical probability that one of Obama's daughter's will have an abortion in her lifetime (and I gave a legitimate source for that statistic).

    My point was that, as Barack Obama said, candidate's children should be off-limits.

    Why would Yahoo not allow a legitimate answer like that, yet allow Governor Palin's daughter to be slandered left and right on here?
