I’m sorry you’re sorry
At first I thought this website too ridiculous to comment on, but after seeing Ambra Nykol’s response and litterally laughing out loud upon seeing her contribution; I just couldn’t pass it up.
Sorry Everybody, at this posting has 562 pages or 5,620 pictures of people who feel worthless or inferior. At least that is the only definintion of “sorry” that I could possibly rationalize to associate with this sad group of people.
I smypathize with them and feel their pain, because to some degree I would have probably had a similar feeling had the election gone the other way. But honestly, these people are bordering on the extremely disillusioned. They refuse to see democrocy as an expression of the unbelievable freedom we are able to enjoy.
They are certainly exercising their freedom of speech and I have absolutely no problem with that at all. What I fear is the depravity they continue to reveal through this expression. It is the same depravity that Sean Hannity revealed on his show the other day when he played John Kerry speaking on the floor of the Senate for the first time since the election. He berated Kerry, slinging insult after insult, and didn’t listen to a word the man was saying. This was not a showing of grace and I turned my radio off because I couldn’t stand to listen to this.
Both of these incidences display the need for us to rely upon something and someone other than ourselves. It is obvious that the “Sorry Everybody” crowd needs to reprioritize their lives. Rather than being sorry, they should be thankful that they have the freedom to make the choices they can. They take that freedom for granted and that is what they should truly be sorry for. To apologize for our democratic freedoms because they didn’t go your way, is an act of selfishness. To gloat in the face of victory is an act of gracelessness.
