I'd usually agree with you, but with the current social climate companies really have to watch out for their interests with this stuff. Having someone with that sort of history on their staff could ruin the company with bad publicity. For better or for worse (probably worse) this is our reality. I'm not saying I support it, but I'm saying that I understand and can't really fault them for it.
They say it ain't like it is, but it do.

I expect it. I know I'll be disappointed, but I feel a persons off duty actions have no relation to their job, and should not be held against them.
But that is an opinion that is not supported by any law.
Which leads me to my main point, how can anyone consider themselves a competent professional in the computer industry, but not understand the dangers of having a facebook account? And the even bigger danger of having a political opinion that is not the same as your boss.
People who still see no issues with using their real name and identity on the internet are retards.
