My comment on dcampbell’s post http://www.dailykos.com/... insulted my fellow Kossacks twice, and I have to apologize for it. What I intended was to point out the dog whistles within the Repub/Teabagger talking points when they leave their sentences unfinished. They want to take back the country, but from whom? Of course it’s the blacks, the immigrants, the gays, and the atheists. I did not aim it at liberals who have problems with President Obama (including myself), and I thought my track record at DKos would have made that clear. Sadly, it didn’t work out that way.
In retrospect, I should have, as suggested by commenters, added a snark tag, and I should not have gotten angry because I was misunderstood. If most readers had problems with my comment, then it’s on me. This is the second painful lesson I have learned here, the first one being don’t blog while drunk, and the second, don’t blog when pissed off at something else. The comment was made in the afternoon, and my response to respondents was made in the evening after I returned from a long, contentious political meeting and I was in a foul mood. I plead guilty to being a loose cannon. Again, my apologies, and a promise it won’t happen again.
