Has Avalon been hijacked by the right-wing noise machine?

Just think about it. The majority of posts that involve even an inkling of anything political are all anti-Obama, pro-Ron Paul and likely pro-Conservative postings.

I don't see any balance. I don't see much criticism of people on the right wing.

Perhaps this is why Avalon and Camelot were singled out by the "obamafascists" (likely a bunch of dumbass kids on a forum more than an actual threat).

I think that if we are going to discuss politics, we need to move beyond partisan attitudes.

I suppose we could avoid discussing politics altogether but I always get a bad feeling when I see good things said about men like Limbaugh, O'Reilly and Glenn Beck. They are the wrong people to be praising and primarily negative-orientated beings that got where they were by berating others and destroying their careers.
