The line! Where did it go?!
Where is the line when disagreeing with the point of view of others? Is there even a line at all on the Internet?
As I am sure my avid blog readers have noticed on the blogosphere, there has been a bit of a riff between Markos from Daily Kos and Carol Darr, the Director of The Institute for Politics, Democracy & the Internet, aka my boss. He completely disagrees with her suggestions to the FEC and not only blogged about it but also sent someone here an email threat!
I think blogs are a great way to get your point of view out there and it’s perfectly okay to disagree with someone. But threatening… hmm… Not so Kosher… Not so professional… Not so respected.

My comment was going to be intirely too long. So, I have posted it on my blog at Hegemon (http://123hegemon321.blogspot.com/). Thanks for the inspiration Kathie.
That's exactly what makes no sense -- why send it to the FEC, especially enclosed in a letter in which Carol acknowledged that this was beyond the FEC's jurisdiction? It served no legitimate purpose, and was just a crude effort to smear Kos rather than respond to his arguments.
