I posted a poll in poor taste last night and I apologize.

[nytemare]

I have a gallows humor, and shortly after posting it, I thought it may not be kosher.

There were some offended by that post, and I sincerely apologize.

I alerted on it and asked for it to be deleted. I see now it was locked. That is good.

:hi:

1. you rock, my sweet

yes INDEED :hi:

[nytemare]

2. I suppose I didn't think too much before I posted.

:banghead:

:hi:

[Haole Girl]

3. You and I both!

My copy cat thread is stupid. Can I get a thread locked for stupidity?

[nytemare]

4. I am not sure if it was my alert that locked my post.

I suppose you could alert on it and ask. I don't think that would hurt.

5. Well I never! Almost never, anyway.

[nytemare]

9. LOL.

As long as it at the bare minimum almost never.

:hi:

11. Hee hee hee, well, I'm not a Saint. ;-)

6. We all make regrettable posts now and again. You've apologized for

doing so, which is the honorable thing to do. You have my respect.

8. TY Redstone.

I was a big poo-poo head.

10. I had eaten mental chili and had cerebral flatulance

:hi:

[Floogeldy]

12. Perhaps you could explain why you made that post?

I believe you when you say that you are sorry. However, I am not sure if you understand exactly why your post was very, very, wrong.

Have you learned anything? If so, what?

[Heidi]

13. Is that you, Mom?

;)

17. I wasn't thinking when I made the post.

I really have a gallows sense of humor, and it is for a reason. In my career, I deal with and in my life have dealt with some very bad people. I deal with it by laughing at just about anything. Hell, I laughed for an hour after breaking my ankle, once.

That carries over in other areas of my life.

I am certainly aware that some of the things I joke about in reality are bad, but I am able to draw that line.

In posting that here, I didn't think through that it might be offensive. I am sorry I offended DUers.

:hi:

14. I don't think it was in poor taste, only inaccurate.

Even if Rove goes to "jail", he'll go to a "jail" in which he won't have to face the prospeect of prison rape. He'll be in some "jail" with computer access, multi-line phones, and probably a staff. That is, a nice, resort-style white rich criminal jail, where the worst thing he'll have to worry about is not being raped, but that his foie gras will be overcooked and/or garnished inelegantly.

15. When in VietNam, we'd joke about the "poor" convicts...

stateside, who had to share TV sets and air conditioners with a group of others. It helped break up the monotony.

[nytemare]

19. He could go to the same prison Martha was in.

He will get booked in jail. He will probably turn himself in, to avoid the cuffing and the perp walk/frog march.

If he does get convicted, then he will probably go to a fancy prison, as you describe.

LOL, foie gras.


:hi:

[Random_Australian]

16. I posted in that thread & went through the same thing (I think we are

talking about the same thread)

[nytemare]

18. Probably.

:hi:

[Kerrytravelers]

20. Only a liberal would accept responsibility for their mistakes!

So... you must really be a liberal! :hi:

[nytemare]

21. I am actually sort of a moderate democrat.

Thing is, with this administration, even though I was left center, I end up looking far left.

I have this fear that the political pendulum will end up swinging too far left, and dems will end up doing the same sort of dirty crap republicans are doing, now.

I sure hope that doesn't happen.

:hi:
