Perhaps a better solution would be a forum (ezboard etc) for those that wish to discuss those kinds of issues. There's also a Yahoo Blue Aeroplanes group that has a chat room.

Let's remember, though, that this list is for Blue Aeroplanes discussion. Discussions about world events, political issues or your new internet-connected icebox aren't appropriate topics.
There are a lot of people on this list just lurking, members because they're interested in BA news, tour dates, etc. When they start seeing politically motivated messages, they unsubscribe. This hurts the Aeroplanes community and could indirectly hurt the band (missed show announcements means missed ticket sales, etc).
How about a separate list for BA fans to discuss off-topic material? It'd be nothing for me to set up, and would allow BA fans to discuss their wide-ranging political views without offending those who aren't interested.
If that sounds like a good idea to you, let me know. Either way, let's keep the regular BA list on-topic. 

We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming...
