MinnPost.com's Posting Policy, and the Tea Party

I sent the following email off to MinnPost.com today:


Here's your "posting policy": MinnPost does not permit the use of foul language, personal attacks, snideness, or gratuitous insult of the intelligence or character of fellow commenters and others, or the use of language that may be libelous or interpreted as inciting hate or sexual harassment. User comments are reviewed by moderators to ensure that comments meet these standards and adhere to MinnPost's terms of use and privacy policy.

How does use of the phrase "Tea Bagger" fit within the confines of the above?

In the event you plead naiveté (which would be downright insulting, so please don't go there), a simple Google search on the phrase should help you out.

Seems like a pretty flagrant violation to me.  But then again, it is the Tea Party, and EVERYBODY hates those idiots, right? 

Your response is appreciated.

In the event they reply, I'll post up

Please feel free to include any thoughts you may have. Know, however, that kiddos might be reading this, so please keep the adult language to yourself. I know, for me to ask that language is clean is a stretch...
