Banned. Too bad, for he's informative and extremely well-read. Must've upset the Tea Party members and some "Har-barbacoa-e?os" and NY Post readers. Or maybe he posted some disparaging comments about FAUX News and/or Rush Limpballs.
Sorry to ruin your fantasy but he was given a vacation for constantly posting off topic and non related DR stuff in numerous threads. Despite many warnings to stop and stay on topic
