Why was my question critical of the Obama Administration's handling of the Fast and Furious program deleted?

In defense of Yahoo (which God knows I hate to do), it's not them who is doing it. It is the work of thin-skinned leftist users who disagree with your premise and want to shut it down to prevent it from being seen by others. Yahoo doesn't employ monitors to watch things which are posted here, it's all done by community moderation...and as the old saying goes, ya gets what ya pays for.
