Of course not.

But lashing out like sore bears against something that was clearly intended to be funny looks pretty grumpy, doesn't it?

I was obviously not trying to offend.

And here I am, being asked to explain myself. It's ridiculous.

Some people just have their partisan glasses firmly on.

You're contradicting yourself.

I thought honest critiques were being solicited. That's the culture here. But the "not for the humor impaired" crack in the prelude should have been our first clue that you were only supposed to say you liked it.

Uhh...no.

It must really be THAT BAD over on the right side of the aisle.

I meant no offense. I thought some might get a chuckle.

I thought it was funny and shared.

Other's don't. That's no skin off my nose.

But lets not get all out of sorts. That guy talking about "crap from China" was awesome. The woman baking cookies while she talks about rulership by one big corporation? Classic.

No. The "not for the humor impaired" was my way of saying that I didn't intend the film to be taken seriously, policy wise.

71' starts in on historical accuracy? Ridiculous.

You all really are out of sorts on the right. Is the McCain-Obama choice really that bleak?

I said it was historically inaccurate suggesting Republicans want to take us back to separate but equal, when it was republicans who got rid of it.

Here is what yanks my chain with the left. They throw out racist comments. They put out attack adds like this one.

What does the media and the libs do. Well the racists comments aren't racist, they're facts. The attack adds are just "fun".

On the other hand when the right does it, it is mean, disgusting and divisive.

If the add appeals to folks, fine, it might help win some votes. I doubt it appeals to many who aren't in the lib camp though.

Really. I talked about historical accuracy and didn't even realize it.

Link??

And I am saying that going for "historical accuracy" on something I don't take seriously in the least, something from Youtube, would be funny if it wasn't accompanied with the collectively entoned "we are not amused."

My bad, it was SU.

But seriously, that you're even trying to call me out on this is wild in the extreme.

Step back. Take a breath. I meant to take exactly zero political shots here.

Religion rises inevitably from our apprehension of our own death. To give meaning to meaninglessness is the endless quest of all religion. When death becomes the center of our consciousness, then religion authentically begins. Of all religions that I know, the one that most vehemently and persuasively defies and denies the reality of death is the original Mormonism of the Prophet, Seer and Revelator, Joseph Smith.
