Commenting Policy

I don’t have a formal commenting policy, not that I have tons of commenters or anything.  But I have never “not approved” a message that was obviously spam free.  Today I received a comment on my McCain post that I still have sitting in moderation.  The commenter basically stated that McCain and Palin are way ahead of Obama in the polls, called Obama an idiot and stated that he would “go the way of Jesse Jackson and leech money from the African American Population.” Clearly I don’t agree but the reason I haven’t approved it was because he/she wrote it claiming to be Barack Obama.  Had it been written in third person, as much as I disagree, I would have approved it.  It’s a personal pet peeve of mine; you want to post something anonymously, that fine, just don’t pretend to be someone you are not.  I am curious what other bloggers do.   What do you moderate?   What are your comment pet peeves?
