But what you experienced I think is a testament to Matty and how he runs this site and the standards he has set and expects and what you found elsewhere

Absolutely. It is why I would hate for a few a-holes to cause the elimination of a place where at least some relatively respectful discussion can take place. In just about every other forum that discusses politics, it is either a name calling fest OR preaching to the choir. I realize the political threads probably cause more moderator issues than others but, to me, the generally fair resolution of those issues makes this a desirable place to hold such discussion.
