29. It may not be a bad idea to let them in under certain conditions.

1. Allow conservatives in as long as they identify themselves as such while signing up.
2. Create a "Conservative View" Forum and let them only post in that forum. (Rest of DU will be read-only to them)
3. Allow them to make only one post every 5 minutes.
4. Make their nicknames appear red so we will know who they are.
5. While confined to their sandbox and limiting their posting, the rest of DU can beat them up.

I'd love to throw a few punches at the conservative myths myself!

PS - the traffic can't hurt revenues.
