Logically one asks why Joe doesn’t become a Republican. But by stay a Democrat who votes Republican he insures the Democratic party’s minority status.

IOW he’s a Stealth Republican

Bingo.

Yep. And. White man in cloying parody of a Black man…Goper in cloying parody of Democrat…six…half-dozen…

The picture might have been a bit edgy, but as far as I’m concerned it was getting at something real.

Goodbye and good riddance, Willis.

ChristAlmightyDamn, some people expect explanations on a small site, late at night, toot suite, when we’ve got trolls running rampant on a couple of different threads here? With new software running on the site, too?

And if your posts are lost, then they’re lost. Get over it. And nobody’s going to send you an email. I wouldn’t. It would be there. Or it wouldn’t be. This ain’t Wal-Mart.

If you think it was so almighty important, POST IT AGAIN. If it’s gotten pulled again, then perhaps it’s not as inoffensive as you think it is. Try re-wording it.

What a crybaby.

Somebody got some pearls for this guy to clutch?

If my posts were important enough to selectively delete, they should be able to provide an explanation for a loyal reader.

I don’t know why this angers you so.

Alright, it’s been approximately an hour since my two posts were deleted. I haven’t received an explanation, an apology, or anything.

I’m assuming they’ll never be restored.

You’ve lost this reader permanently.

Happy Trails to you, Pardner!

If it helps to know, since the new bells and whistles came in, one or two of my comments disappeared and never showed up. They were completely benign, so I figured it was a glitch of some kind.

I sincerely doubt that’s what it was, since both of my deleted posts were on the site for a minute or two, and the second was responded to twice, as you can see.
