Well said Jim, perhap a bit wordy though. ;)
I was one of the people who saw this post as not
political in
nature, but as a geek job info post. Which is
certainly partially
on-topic considering the employment status of the IT
field. I 
saw the politcal warning as just that a warning that
the linked tosite might be offensive to certain
individuals and thus they 
would be prepared. I fould some of the vitriolic
responses to the post as a bit over the top. Perhaps
because certain topics
flip certain switches in people's minds and they fail
to grasp the entire content of a statement. I know it
has certainly happened to me and virtually everyone I
know at some point in time.
