I agree with you that cycling is an
issue with deeply political aspects. It's perfectly appropriate to discuss
the politics of cycling on this list, and debate political issues surrounding
cycling here.
I think what Dave objects too, and I agree with,
is that we should avoid broadsided partisan politics here. We're all on
this list, whatever our political stripes, because we bike, and care enough
about it to want to discuss it and advocate for it. Lets keep it focused
on issue advocacy related to cycling, where we can have a rational debate, and
leave the partisan politics to other forums.

Cycling, or bike commuting is deeply political in
nature. Simply review the local laws that have been more recently altered
or initiated in favor of cyclists or consider the measures exercised to feed our
collective oil addiction. The admonition to censor one's political comments
comes off as a bit self-righteous, although I understand the invitation to
consider rather than hyperbolize. That you are offended by "anti-Walker"
messages, or are speaking for those who might be offended by such words is, in
and of itself, political. Let us all celebrate living in a country that
allows free speech and in the same celebration, consider that each is blessed
with the freedom to consider the arguments and come to each our own place of
political, spiritual and personal viewpoint.
