Opinion of the permabanned posters: Haley/Ryan

[7,052,770]

I think it's important for everyone to remember that we never see all of another user's posts (because who has the time or interest to read every thread on every board), especially those that get moderated and removed before we do see them, so it's pretty silly to confidently assert that someone "never" said something. Add in that so many posters cower away in these "cords" and side boards rather than just posting here, so how can anyone be expected to know everything other posters have said or didn't?

Personally, I trust the moderator team (which consists of a lot of well-respected, professional posters from all over the political spectrum) to get it right. Even when I don't really understand their decision, I just assume they know more than I do, and I give them the benefit of the doubt.

Why do you always argue that various Republicans posters that you knee-jerk defend "never" said stuff that a lot of people claim they said? How can you be sure they never said it? How can you be sure you didn't miss it, or that it wasn't modded before you had to chance to read it?
