Update: Comment registration will close at 5pm today

Bumping to the top…comment registration is still open for a limited time.

Okay, readers, comment registration is now officially open.

Register by clicking here.

I am reprinting my terms of use for commenters here so we are all clear on the rules of the road:

Michellemalkin.com allows you to post comments on the site, provided that you first register to do so with a valid e-mail address.

I may allow as much or as little opportunity for registration as I choose, in my absolute discretion, and I may close particular comment threads or discontinue my general policy of allowing comments at any time. By registering to post comments, you warrant that you are at least 18 years old and that you are solely responsible for your account’s activity.

I reserve the right to delete your comments or revoke your registration for any reason whatsoever. Rarely will I do so simply because I disagree with you. I will, however, usually do so if you post something that is, in my opinion, (a) off-topic; (b) libelous, defamatory, abusive, harassing, threatening, profane, pornographic, offensive, false, misleading, or which otherwise violates or encourages others to violate these terms of use or any law, including intellectual property laws; or (c) “spam,” i.e., an attempt to advertise, solicit, or otherwise promote goods and services. I may exercise these rights myself and I may delegate them to employees and/or contractors.

I do not own your comments and I expressly disclaim any and all liability that may result from them. By commenting on my site, you agree that you retain all ownership rights in what you post here and that you will relieve me from any and all liability that may result from those postings. You further agree to grant me a worldwide, irrevocable, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sub-licenseable and transferable license to store, use, transmit, display, publish, reproduce, or otherwise distribute your comments without limitation, as well as to make such additional uses of them as may be needed by me.

In short, you’re my guest here. I welcome your participation, but if you abuse my hospitality, don’t be surprised if you are shown the door.

Questions about comment registration and comments policy can be sent to Rick Moran at [email protected].

P.S. Lots of folks want to know what happened to the blogroll. Don’t worry. It’ll be back. It was causing some loading problems. Thanks to everyone who has sent feedback–positive and negative–about the redesign. We’re still tweaking and polishing. Appreciate your patience and continued readership!
