Why did the tea partiers delete my answer to the tea partier question?

Venting, ranting or using hate speech

Yahoo! Answers isn't a soapbox to vent personal frustrations or rant about issues. We are a community of people with diverse beliefs, opinions, and backgrounds, so please be respectful and keep hateful and incendiary comments off Yahoo! Answers. Read more >

Chatting or otherwise violating the question-and-answer format.

Yahoo! Answers is a community of questions and answers, not a chat room. If a post is neither a question nor an answer, it doesn’t belong here. If you’re looking for a place to chat with others, try Yahoo! Groups or Yahoo! Messenger Chat Rooms. Read more

Being mean or obscene

Because kids as young as 13 may participate in Yahoo! Answers, sexually explicit and vulgar language and images are not welcome on the site. Also not welcome are belligerence, insults, slurs and generally objectionable speech. If you wouldn't say it in public, don't post it on Answers. Read more

Exploiting the community

Yahoo! Answers is a place to gain knowledge, not customers, page views, or dates. If you have years of experience in something, have a special hobby, own your own business, or if you are a knowledge partner, it's OK to accompany a good, on-topic answer with a link to your website, blog, or email to offer more information. However, it is not OK to post links that are unrelated to the topic or are clearly meant only to solicit others for personal and financial gain. Also prohibited are solicitations like "Will you add me as a contact?" or propositioning people. Read more

Cheating

Our points system is meant to reward the community members for sharing questions and answers, so creating multiple accounts or posting content for the sole purpose of gaining points or soliciting others for points is not permitted. Posting filler answers to a question in an effort to be first to answer, or copying and pasting other members' answers, are also forms of cheating. Read more

Violating the law

Members of Yahoo! Answers are not above the law, so don't post anything that violates the laws of your country, state, province, or city. Don't try to trick people into sharing their personal information, steal anything (like copyright or trademark material), or break into places you shouldn't be. Don't threaten, harass, impersonate, or hurt others, and don't invade other people's privacy. Read more

Behaving maliciously

Don't post links to sites that contain viruses or malicious programs or that interfere with the operation of Yahoo! Answers. Read more

It's interesting to see what gets deleted.

I have no problem when a person voices their opinion as long as it doesn't infringe upon the rights of others.

Sadly, there are many on Y/A that take a "juvenile" approach to debate and resort to less than appropriate behavior when making comments.

Whether a person agrees with the Tea-partiers or not is fine.

My only problem on Y/A is listening to some of the rhetoric that is based upon rumors or innuendo's plastered by the ultra left or right propagandists that are obvious efforts to be deceptive with information.

it is hard to tell, not knowing the question or the answer

(and the Tea Party is the party of less taxes, not the party of freedom)

LOL...
