an apology

[partgypsy]

I just wanted to apologize about the "I''m Voting Republican" thread. It posted here, but I meant it to post in "around the world" forum, which is where the political (and more saucy) threads are, so I immediately messaged the administrator to move it. That''s why I never posted back to that thread, because I kept thinking it was going to be moved???
The administrator then emailed me saying that it was removed because of complaints it was offensive.

I like the fact that the majority of pricescope is (refreshingly) non-political, and that people of all backgrounds and viewpoints can talk. I knew it was not appropriate in the family thread and did not intend to offend anyone by the tongue in cheek posting.

No need to apologize to me, but its sweet that you are doing so.

 

[partgypsy]

Phew. Thanks for making me feel better.

I wouldn''t worry. I agree with mz, lots of times things are not posted in the correct forums. FWIW, I got that it was tongue in cheek, regardless of your political persuassion.

You are too sweet.

I took it as joking. But I am a big fan of political humor from both sides. My extended family is very politically split to put it mildly so I think humor from both sides of the fence can be very funny. For me it cuts the tension and stress to laugh a little. It can help family gatherings not end in throwing food also.

I took it as joking too. I didn''t find it offensive at all. And I likely post in the wrong place too. Whateveahhhhh.

Dang I love satire and funny political posts, sorry I missed it.

 

[Dancing Fire]

are you apologizing to Repb or Dems ?

i didn''t read the thread.

I put things in the wrong place all the time (or used to when I posted more often).

Paul (who is VERY politically minded) even chuckled *but just once* when I showed him the clip. He was like, "People know this is supposed to satire, no?"

I wonder if there''s one out there titled, "why I''m voting Demo." Hm....

Yes there is. Bring your strong stomach, though...It addresses the pro-choice issue in a very graphic way.

I only watched one. There could be others that are less disturbing.

Dancing Fire, the video pokes fun at repubs, but the apology was to anyone who was offended.
