re: #267 HappyWarrior

I gotta admit. I’m of two minds on Walsh. One part of me wants him to fuck off and go away given how awful he was to Obama. Another part makes me think we need all the help we can get to stop Trump and I do in principle believe in forgiveness. Truth is probably in between. I don’t want his advice and I think he does need to realize his own role and other anti Trump conservatives in why Trump was plausible. However, it’s also telling to me that a lot of people are vocalizing against Trump and I appreciate it.

The first step in contrition is taking accountability for your actions.

You must admit why you need to apologise.

No one is required to accept an apology.

Joe Walsh has always been a wingnut. Suddenly today he says he’s not? I’m not a Christian at all and I know “faith without works is dead.” Come back to me when you have some works to show for it, Mr. Walsh.

And #PayUpDeadbeat — if you can’t even do that, why should I believe you when you worked for decades to help put the worst person I can imagine in the White House?

Even if you do offer a sincere apology and accept responsibility for your actions, I am not required to accept it. You rob my house, return all my stuff, say you’re sorry, I’m still going to press charges.
