That's straddling the line don'tcha think? Politicians, upcoming elections, perceptions...........
Just my take on it.

Just commenting that if I think it could be taken as line straddling.......
Not admonishing just passing on what it could be taken as but I've been wrong before.

Geeze, children these days........

 

[Foxfyre]

The wife asked me what I wanted to do this weekend, told her I hadn't given it any thought. She reminded me it was my birthday...... I forgot......
So I'm doing something she wants...... Road trip to Ruidoso.......

Ruidoso is a great road trip though there isn't a whole lot to do there this time of year. Some good rates on motel rooms. The Flying J Ranch used to have a limited menu--chicken and brisket, with or without bar-b-que sauce--but their brisket was superb. Fun place to go. If you like the casino scene, check out the Inn of the Mountain Gods--they used to have good food there too though we haven't been there in quite some time. Absolutely gorgeous little city even with the burn scar from the big forest fire two or three years ago.

I find it confusing your birthday is tomorrow, I mean when its Friday will your birthday be Saturday? Sort of a moving target if you ask me.

Hi neither. So happy you found us, and I see Ernie has already furnished you your first timer's complimentary beverage. Interesting user name--will be fun seeing how people figure out if folks are talking about you or the pronoun/adverb out on the political threads.

I've been pondering this as to whether it is straddling and I think if I had to rule, I would say as long as there is no political promotion involved, I don't see any reason that a person can't be acknowledged even if the person is such a political figure. That's why I went to bat for Stat when he was posting political people drinking coffee some time back--I didn't see that as political at all though some wanted him reprimanded for that. That is not the same thing as pushing a political agenda or perspective. Now if you post a photo of a political figure along with endorsement or criticism of what he/she accomplished that would be straddling the line. And to promote the person as better or worse than another or as the better or worse candidate is over the line.

My two cents.

Let me know how big a tab you can afford and I'll figure it up for you.

 

[Gracie]

Speaking of.....and maybe on target about political stuff....that might not be really derailing...I think I need a colonoscopy soon.

I don't wanna. But I think I might hafta.

AND swallow a mini camera in the form of a pill. Oh fun. Oh joy. Not.

That is all.

Oh I agree, just had a momentary; "is he promoting a candidate? Why would he name him as a shared birthday person" kinda response.
No problem, no harm done.
Sorry Ernie.
