9. OK. I have nothing against warranted critique.

Maybe it depends on how the criticizing is done. I remember someone in particular who was hostile, accused me of "being with them", posting endless attack threads against Obama AND against DUers who didn't fall in with him/her, stalking anyone who didn't join in the extreme rhetoric that he/she espoused. He/she should have gotten pizza'd, but never did, I don't think.

And I just happen to think that when one is proven wrong, if you've contributed to an atmosphere of hate or misinformation, you should publicly apologize. For example, I think the M$M should do such an apology--repeatedly.
