1. Will you join me on November 5TH in what will be a historical day?
Then I re-posted it as
2. Will you help me to make history?
So why are they being deleted? All they they were asking is to join us November 5th Guy Fawkes day for Ron Paul!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yh_9fip694A
Yet this question was left up

Because some spineless liberals here would rather report and have deleted, any questions they fear might cause them more embarassment. This PC nonsense is everywhere these days and Yahoo answers is no exception. Your questions, posts, and answers given are considered a threat to their ignorance.

Hi Matt,
We've disagreed at times.
Doesn't matter.
Happy to help.
The other one probably wasn't reported.
Despite the constant hype about being reported for every little thing, it really doesn't happen that much, and the people who do get reported and then lose their account are usually people who yell about injustice despite repeatedly breaking the rules of Yahoo! Answers. I've been reported. I deserved it. I changed my approach because they GIVE this site to us. It's free.
Both posts are technically spam. Political spam, but they're still spam. You got the luck of the draw. Someone reported on that basis. Technically, they're right. This isn't an event post website.
I'm glad you speak up for what you believe in (whether I agree or not).
Keep speaking up.

Community guidelines aside, (I see no violation in either question), possibly some new 'domestic watcher' has discovered that people speak their conscience here on YA, and decided it was POTENTIALLY SEDITIOUS.
I'm reasonably sure the same people who turn in their neighbor also patrol YA. Results; it is a bigger police state coming, yet who is being protected? Moneyed conservatives, with stock in the war and munitions industries...

Those posts were reported, and yahoo has no means of verifying if it’s a legitimate complaint. They don’t have the human resources, so they play it safe.
On the upside, people who “report too much” lose their accounts.
(mckenziecalhoun obviously reported you)
KEEP POSTING

Possibly because even Yahoo recognizes Paul for the goof that he is and they are tired of spammers like you flooding this site with it.

Eff Ron Paul. I agree with him on the war, but his other views are retarded. Let every man fend for himself is an ignorant stance, some people actually and truly need help from the government. Anyway, he's so far behind everyone else in the polls that your crappy spray painted banners are a big fat waste of time.
VOTE OBAMA!!!!
