I haven't been able to get on the blog for a while now. Is it still up or have I been booted?

Gary,

You left a comment on my post at the CITA group asking about the Community Blog page. Here is the explanation:

Since the DNC took over this site in January NO ONE has been monitoring/managing the objectionable material and SPAM posted to this site. I recently found a O-dashboard that had a objectionable photo on it so I have been emailing/writing to HQ, WhiteHouse.gov and the DNC to please either clean up the site because it is ruining this site integrity and no to mention Obama's good name. I think that someone finally took notice and shut down the viewing of the community blogs which has cut down the amount of SPAM and objectionable postings from non-Obama people. You can still see posts in the individual groups that you are a memeber of.

I received a phone call from the Washington, DC DNC this morning to tell me that they received my letter on that one particular o-page that had the objectionable photo. They thanked me and told me that they removed it. I did check and it is no longer there.

Hope that answers your question.

Aloha,

CR
