Blogging-Comment Policy

The IntenseDebate Blog/Comment section is subject to our Website Regulations and Privacy Policy, but blogs/comments are special, so some special additional rules apply. 

We can change this policy at any time, so check back here often, but any changes will only apply from the effective date forward.

  1. The golden rule of this blog/comment is:  treat others as you would like to be treated.  Good manners are a must!
  2. We welcome relevant, respectful comments, but we are not responsible for, and do not endorse comments posted on this blog/comment unless we specifically identify them as originating with us.
