> I'll take a self-promoter over a murderer any day.
How is crap like this getting upvoted? New Guys, here at Hacker News we vote up and down based on intelligent, civil, primarily unemotional comments. Calling out "neocons" and randomly throwing "murderer" around is not what we vote up here. Please think, a lot of us are ex-Reddit and we don't want Hacker News to become Reddit, or else we'd be at Reddit.

- mcantelon 16y agoThe use of "murderer" could be argued, but I fail to see what's in any way controversial about calling a member of the AEI a neocon. According to Wikipedia "AEI is the most prominent think tank associated with American neoconservatism". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Enterprise_Institute http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Enterprise_Institute
