Post World Apologies

Not quite sure where to place this thread, since it crosses over several categories, and usually I just lurk down in the IotD forum. But anyway...

Some folks I know were seriously depressed at the recent political events involving the elections, and felt that it was necessary to let the world know that not everyone in America was hellbent on being supporters of the Bush Dynasty.

Hence, SorryEverybody.com. It was only a local idea, but after the first day of being up, it'd accquired 2 million hits, and now, just this evening, it made it onto a CNN broadcast.

There has been plenty of support for and against it, but currently, the submissions still pour in, so fast that while I was viewing their gallery, four more pages appeared on the list.

View the page, or make a submission, or send a donation, or send hate mail. Whatever. But some of the responses shown there I felt are at least worth a couple minutes of time.

I, for one, am not sorry for anything and I find it appalling that all those idiots would post pictures of themselves apologizing for our countries political process.

Nice to see the opinions and personalities are still predictable.

If they were unpredictable, would you call them 'Flip-Floppers'?

Fair enough, CW. Although one man that was labeled as a flip-flopper was called much worse than that.

Much worse. There is a God, cuz he's not going to be pres.

That saves me a lot of work reloading ammo and sharpening knives.

Well I did put this link in the Politics forum, as seen here but that's okay. More exposure is good.

It's not so much the process they're sorry for, it's the results.

Same difference. It was a fair election, the person with the most votes won. No need to apologize to anyone.

So don't. If other people feel they need or want to, let 'em.

Yeah, you're right. If I look at it like they're apologizing for making a poor, ill informed decision to vote for the wrong person then I guess it makes sense that they're sorry.
