AR Husker Fan v ZRod

Okay, it's time to come clean on this and shed a little light. AR is actually Barack Obama.

Sorry I had to out you, AR.

No, I do not believe this is the case NUance, however, I am not sure the above postings should have been saved here or anywhere for that matter!
IMO, which don't count for much, here at HB, but, then again, opinions are like a$$ holes, we all got one, some just stink more than others.

I'm with TAKODA on this one, if I'm honest. I didn't quite understand how we devolved from his statement (which didn't register as a personal attack with me) to then a very lengthy (and quite obviously personal) post from AR.

I know this doesn't involve me so I don't intend to offend you, AR. This was just my observation. That forum has been more contentious than ever recently and I really enjoy posting in there, but I know at least one mod has expressed an interest in closing the place down, and this gave them some ammunition.


Agreed.

 
Wow, away from the board for a few hours and the sh#t hits the fan.

As a disclaimer I haven't read what precipitated this whole shindig but reading through only the posts in this thread so far, I am inclined to think that AR may have unnecessarily elevated the situation. ZRod made some pretty simple, general statements and he was lambasted with claims of ignorance and all sorts of excessive reaction. Maybe I shouldn't be speaking to this since I don't know exactly how it came about but it seems like somebody perceived this much more personally and at a much higher level than any of it was likely intended. Just my opinion.

I will add that those of you semi-accusing Z of not sticking up for Obama for the last 8 years, I didn't see that at all. Seems numerous times, if there were "sides" to be taken in a political discussion, that I found him to be on the side of Obama (as I was often on the other side of the discussion-so I noticed). And he has been fairly consistent in his criticism's of Trump but he also is one of the few on the board willing to give Trump the slightest modicum of respect as the President of this country and that doesn't appear to be too popular of a position to hold hereabouts. IDK, it just seems this got blown way out of proportion, maybe with good reason but I haven't seen that good reason in this thread.

Edit- BTW, I will add that I think Trump has fully earned being referred to as a "so called" President. That is not being disrespectful to the office, it is being disrespectful to a man who himself does not show the office or others any respect. Absolutely fair to refer to him that way.

So here goes...

I didn't read you're numbered points AR. I don't want to honestly. I'm not sure how this got so personal, but it was never meant as an attack. I apologize that it came off that way.

It rubs me the wrong way when anyone refers to a sitting president (from any party, or claiming to be from any party

) as so-called or illegitimate. It cast into doubt our electoral systems and processes. Something Republican policy makers have been doing for years, and we both disagree with. Maybe I am naive, and want to believe our democracy is still squeaky clean. Maybe that is my fault. Maybe I don't express myself well enough posting on a message board from a cell phone. You and I would get along great over a couple beers, as I would with just about anyone here.

Sure there are legitimate issues with Russians hacking the DNC, but what Comney did arguably hurt worse than anything Putin did. That was a self inflicted wound for this country and it really hurts now.

The fact is that Trump has been elected and sworn in as the President of the United States of America. No matter how much I loathe him, that's not changing. And I absolutely detest him (notice I did not call him a man. He is not. He is a childish boy). but I will give him credit where credit is due. That's just the way I am. I try to be fair and I call it like I see it. That doesn't mean I'm perfect or infallible though.

You and I, we're on the same side. We don't need to be at each other's throats when we have so much in common. Let's burry this. Go Big Red!

Sorry for not giving you all an epic battle in the shed boys and girls. I know I'm a disapointment and have brought shame to the Huskerboard nation ;p

But I don't like beer. Actually I haven't had alcohol since August but we can eat some marijuana candy if you want.
Goddamnit! I knew one of you sober saints were going to make a snooty comment!!! We can have water then and just shoot the sh#t.
I've never partaken in Mary Jane actually. Little fun fact for everyone.
