Well, it's looking like I'm going to have to fork out some money to upgrade my commenting system to allow me to delete comments. I'll never delete a comment I disagree with, only ones like that on the post below referring to Andrew Sullivan. I'd gone so long without having to deal with immature, potty-mouthed […]
