There are two possible reasons not to allow MG here:

1) His opinions don't conform to the standard of conventional modern liberalism, that folkies in general accept as the only truth. (I tend to favor late-18th century liberalism, myself, but that's beside the pont.)

2) He can be rude and abusive in expressing himself.

If he's to be kicked out for reason #1, then the Mudcat has become a mutual admiration society, not a discussion forum, and is probably not worth anyone's time.

If he's to be kicked out for reason #2, then everyone else who's guilty of the same thing should be, including this poor old harmless 'chuck. That would certainly make the Mudcat run more smoothly, since the number of posts would drop by 50% at least.
