Housekeeping, and Raccoons

We've had an explosion of comments today, which is awesome. Please keep them coming. It did remind me though that I should post a reminder of our comments policy:

"By using this Service you agree not to post material that is obscene, harassing, defamatory, or otherwise objectionable. Although FedBlog does not monitor comments posted to this site (and has no obligation to), it reserves the right to delete, edit, or move any material that it deems to be in violation of this rule."

So if you posted something but aren't seeing it show up, it's likely because it violated one of these tenets, usually the one about profanity. Feel free to rewrite and resubmit.

But in lighter news, it appears the White House is finally free from the raccoon menace...
