I'm not only new here but a bit slow with the nuances of the smiley faces, etc. I apologize. Hope no hard feelings.

I honestly see no purpose in such a rude shitty response to a stupid yet harmless mistake. Sorry I'm not as fucking Internet savvy and brilliant as you. Thankfully the vast majority of people here are intelligent, polite supporters of the left so your snarky remark won't run me off. I take responsibility for my being stupid and snarky during a time when it is most important to have each others back and share information. My post was out of line and I apologized to the original poster.

was uncalled for. I am glad you apologized for your remarks but at first glance you looked more trollish than anything else. If you are not a troll just showed really poor judgment than so be it. That has been an issue here on DU with trolls, which are alerted and those individuals are usually banned from DU. You should be thankful that your remark was not alerted. My intent was not to "run" you off but more to call you out on your insensitive comment.

Thank you for insinuating that I am stupid. On top of that most people I know on the left are intelligent and would not post such a "less than intelligent" post as you did. Try learning the culture of DU and try being more carefully and sensitive in the future.

By the way your apology was 2 hours 15 minutes after my post. Have a nice day.

I am new at blogging and my first experiences were on Media Matters which seems to be the bridge where the trolls live. It was wrong to remark in such a way to a funny response to what will most likely happen w my teabagger peers. I'm surrounded by them so sometimes I get riled up at the wrong people. Really do apologize. This is an awesome site for information and hope I didn't burn too many bridges!

That thread led to the Facebook site:
