Word. I'd set up screening, but I'm lazy like that and I have no problem with the delete comment button.
usually over political entries
I've never really understood the point of going and saying rude things to someone who has different political views. I get being upset by them. I get ranting about it in your own space. But commenting? Seems pointless because I've never really seen anyone go, "Oh, wow, this anonymous comment has caused me to completely rethink my entire world view!"
I have seen a few people, in rational, polite, civilized discussions say, "You may have a point" or "I didn't think about that" or "Maybe you're right".
The internet will help you grow a thick skin mighty fast, won't it?
