DM - apology needed.
We are all waiting for your apology for yet another false thread and post.
This would definitely fit into the talebearers category.
Not even a shred of truth in it.
- This refers to the satirical article about Ryan -

Re: DM - apology needed.
I think DM thought the article was genuine. He wasn't the only person to miss the satire. Quite a few members of the MSM did as well.

Re: DM - apology needed.
My political group missed it also. And if DM has to apologize for anything, each candidate in both parties will need to do the same. Not everything they have represented has been truth and it certainly has not been satire either.

That is my point.
How many of them do you think will apologize or admit they were fooled.
Liberals hate to apologize.

Oh, so this isn't about the article I read about the death of John Cena? I cried for 2 days before I learned that it was a hoax.

Well, you quoted it (or interpreted it) as a literal, truthful article, when in fact it was a piece of satire meant for entertainment.
If you knew it was satirical and posted it as truth, that would be disingenuous and might require an apology, or at least a, "Pardon me, I misled you for my own entertainment." If you didn't realize it was satirical, no apology is necessary and the demands for an apology are rather silly and juvenile, IMO.
