Political comments

[Bucknaked]

Whats the deal with having a go at the government. If I was to call John Howard a lying scumbag, then I would be warned about political comments and the thread would go the way of other poltical threads. I am curious. Whats so bad about having a dig at the government. I could have a go at Holden or japanese cars all I like. And no-one would have a problem. We all know how bad those cars are, and we continue to point out their flaws. We all know how bad the government is, but we arn't aloud to point that out?

Has it got something to do with government regulations on web sites. Like no porno etc etc etc? Do we get reviewed by government authorities? I'm just curious as to why we are censored on the subject of political bashing. I work for the government, and i bag the hell out of them at work. No-one there seems to have an issue with it.

Anyway, just curious, thats all
