I apologize for my "Bill" thread
I thought it was a valid point to make because the Republicans may bring it up in the General Election.


I did not intend any insult, although my language was "over the top" and unnecessarily harsh.


Yes, I am an asshole and I proved it there.


I hope you will accept an apology from an asshole like me.

2. Is "fat chicks" part of your daily vocabulary?
What you said was disgusting.

15. Just trying to figure out why you thought it would ever fly at DU?
Posts are a window into the soul of the poster. That you even posted what you did--that you even for a moment thought it would be ok--tells me a lot about you.

5. I didn't read your post
but I like it when someone admits they are wrong.

I get pretty emotional at times too, but I try to remind myself that the worst Dem is better than the best Repub.

7. I don't know what you said, but if you have read some of the threads from ALL SIDES
unless we start to discuss the issues that affect us, we may not see the results we want in 2008

12. What made you realize that your post wasn't a good idea?
I strongly disagreed with it, and just wonder how you came to that conclusion.

17. My language was to harsh

I did not intend any sexism, that charge was like a slap in the face. I saw then that I should have simply used an argument.... if we are getting two for one. what if one ......


Anyways I will leave it at that for the people who did not see the first post. I don't want to bring it up here and start that discussion.


I was wrong, I am sorry

19. You did not intend sexism??
Your post was disgustingly sexist on two levels. First, you question whether Hillary will be able to handle the job if her husband either dies or gets in trouble again with another "fat chick."

Silly me for misconstruing such an innocuous post. No sexism intended? :rofl:

20. No
I question her ability because she seems to be running on her husband's experience (to me)

Fat Chick was clearly wrong.. It was short hand for Bill's indiscretion and I should have taken the time to express that concern in another manner.

18. I forgive you,
even though I didn't read your thread, and am not really paying much attention to Bill and Hill, having removed her from my table the day she announced her candidacy, lol.

22. as a fellow asshole, I forgive you
what a fucking asshole! just kidding

like they say this ain't bean bag and it will stay nasty till one candidate has it wrapped up. For all the shit that goes on here its just a dress rehearsal for the GE. Your guy better develop a thicker skin if he wins the nomination, cuz the Clinton's are playing kissy face compared to what the pukes will throw out.
