I don't think so, but that's been debated. A ban on stories that involve politics wouldn't be the right thing, but I think most political stories don't belong here. The only way to keep them out is insults, threats, and not voting them up. I have a self-promoting link that bridges politics and hacking, and if this story gets more votes I'm going to put it in a comment here. Yes that's a threat.
