First they refuse to post my question: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Ar9HIS_pYAax3HrWZ3EBoTXQ7BR.;_ylv=3?qid=20071015101553AAsQesE
then after I post a challenge to them: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AvWWFBghxb9PI6tQgP0_v0bsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20071015103510AA6swM4
they then post both questions 45 minutes after the first one was asked, placing them deep in the stack where very few people will see them. I'm frankly shocked that they had the guts to admit that not posting the first question while posting garbage from lib-trolls (at the very same time) amounts to lib-bias, but then putting the questions deep in the stack serves the purpose of being biased while paying lip-service to the idea of them being non-biased.

[OR
could it be that 78% of the country is LIBERAL ]
...and yet the lib-run Congress only gets ~20% approval. You libs must be pretty dissatisfied with YOUR Congress.

So, coranth1, how do you explain that shortbus got his "question" posted then 45 minutes later my original question suddenly appeared right below his (indicating that I had submitted mine first) after not being there the previous 45 minutes, as well as BOTH of my related questions appearing AT THE SAME TIME (the other being delayed ~21 minutes)?

BTW, coranth1, you have to "click" on the links to make them work (just like I did to check to see that they were all working).

They will allow all kinds of posts about how God doesnt exist and posts supporting illegal immigration, but not about how this is still a christian nation or when I said something about how anyone who supports illegal immigration is committing illegal acts themselves. All of that, deleted. Violations galore. F*ck Y!A and their agenda.

You apparently don't realize that the posting process is automated -- that there isn't a person reading each question and then hitting an "approve" or "deny" button.
And the list of questions is similarly automated -- it comes from a database retrieval -- no person is sitting there manually deciding where questions get placed.
So, you can accuse Yahoo of being politically biased -- but a liberal bias would be in favor of free speech and against censorship -- so your accusation is really contra-intuitive.
But the reality is that you are attributing to human malice what is the automated functioning of electronic computer systems -- and if they have attained the level of self-awareness to be able to make such political decisions -- then we have much bigger issues than whether you can post such .... nevermind.
By the way -- most of your links in the other questions don't actually work -- and the ones that do talk about his involvement 40~50+ years ago -- hardly news, and hardly relevant to recent activity.

quite possibly the server was full with a lot of questions being posted at once. You should open each category questions are asked in and look at how many sub-topics there are.
I've had to wait a good 5 or 10 minutes at times, before my questions have been posted. And 99% of my questions are bias-free.

Vast left wing conspiracy. They are sitting there waiting for your questions, nothing else to do since Hillary is practically President already.

Yahoo News is biased that way, too (in case you don't know). But the 3-letters "k" together can simply be a trip-wire to easily drop your content, don't you think?

coranth1 is correct.
It is an automated system and you are acting paranoiac.
I am a liberal and the same thing happens to me, although I rarely post inflammatory questions.

They preach tolerance tolerance tolerance...for behaviors and lifestyles that seem dysfunctional at first glance...then comes Y!A questions/answers, and we find there is not reciprocity in this tolerance idea. I'll go answer the other questions too.

It's funny. When you're just slightly to the right of Vlad the Impaler, you start to imagine that everything is a "liberal conspiracy" and that even Strom Thurmond had communist tendencies. It's called "paranoia."
