It was actually someone else that posted that first quote, but I do agree
with you. There are some people who have a lot to contribute so long as
you keep them off of politics. For some reason, they see a political
discussion as a place to "show their a$$es" and think they don't have to
behave like they do otherwise. So you don't want to filter them entirely.
There are a couple that have made it into my twitlist due to posts on
another network... I finally decided that they really don't contribute
anything to any discussions so it was no loss at all.
