Do you think the fact that the Yahoo execs donated $ to Obama slants which questions get deleted?

Do you think the tens of thousands of dollars that the execs of Yahoo have donated to the Obama campaign slant which questions and answers get taken down and left up for rules violation?

    silly

    There is no prefect politician they are all despised because they have to play the dog and pony show to get elected No matter what they do or say someone will turn it around and attack regardless if that was what was meant. I primarily look on their past stances on the issues. The one who voted the way I would have on all his previous votes on issues is my candidate that I vote for. I could care less about the lies and bickering between the parties during the race it has no effect whatsoever on what the politician stands for on the issues in the past. Obama is my choice because he closely aligned with my views on the issues. I want to help our country to grow and prosper for everyone not just the select few rich born with a silver spoon in their mouths. These people have not suffered poverty and never had to struggle a day in their lives. They could not possibly imagine what it like to start from nothing and how difficult it is to achieve when the whole world is against you. They are to arrogant and naive to have the decency and humanity to see that others are not as blessed with fortune and need a little help. Instead the Gripe and moan with greed and believe all the money that they easily are able to make more of should be theirs and only theirs. They can not conceive why they should pay a little more tax than the one less fortunate themselves for that same reason. Greed is a deadly sin. It one of the worst because it indirectly can cause the death of others, but they never see that as a cause because of their own ignorance that is the only way they achieve bliss.

    For the rationalization a lot of questions and solutions get deleted . it is meant to be for intense questions and solutions . yet unfortunatly we've alot of immature human beings in right here that ask infantile questions or supply infantile solutions. every person can record every person at right here . And the ignorant persons that artwork for yahoo will merely delete it .

    I didn't know they were Obama supporters.....

    Having said that, they are a multi billion dollar firm and I would expect them to value their position as a company and keep their own political agenda separate from their company in order to maintain credibility.

    Maybe they would be more willing to block/remove user comments posting negative Obama comments, but I mean a slight bias like that can rarely be eliminated.

    It's possible!

    I've asked the following question twice in the last two days and it hasn't appeared yet:

    Do you think there will be riots at the Democratic National Convention in Denver?

    Given the history of the anti-war movement's violent protest at the 1968 Democratic Convention in Chicago, the group "Recreate 68" plans a protest.

    There are numerous internet news articles but here is one link for your information: see source

    Yeah, definitely but the fact is, a few people see each question that we put on in order to expose Obama for the crook that he is. The yahoo execs can try all they want, but I think that the intelligent people on Yahoo will see what they need to see: Obama, as a person, is a phony liar, and as a candidate, he is an anti-American loser.

    No.

    I've had 2 anti-McCain questions/answers deleted today alone basically because someone got pissed off at what I said. No violation of terms where in either.

    So, there is no bias towards Obama as you imply.

    Hope that answers your question.

    Have a nice day!

    It's no secret that corporations donate money to both parties. That way, they have an in no matter who gets elected.

    Nah, Yahoo doesn't sit there and ban questions to favor a candidate. Too much manpower.
