[Vision2020] An Explanation

[keely emerinemix]

How silly of Dale to protest that he doesn't even see comments -- even "ugly" ones -- that so obviously reflect agreement with his initial posts.  

It appears that this is the order:

I complained to Wilson.

Wilson wrote and told me he talked with Dale, who removed post (Obama joke 1) and comment (Obama joke 2, Witmer)

Post and comment were, indeed, gone this afternoon.

Rose gets an email from Dale saying he never pulls comments.

But he did pull the comment and the joke that piggybacked onto it.

Now, I didn't study logic at a classic Christian college, but something seems a bit odd here.  Either way, though, I'm glad the nauseatingly offensive jokes -- one by Courtney, one by Witmer -- were, in fact, pulled.  I don't much care if Wilson told him to, asked him to, or if Dale had a "come to Jesus" moment and pulled them himself.

But this macho posturing of Dale's  -- "I don't pull posts" -- is silly.

All in all, not one of Courtney's better days and a very sad day for the Gospel.

Visionaries:

 

Sorry to double post.  If I had checked my in box I
would have seen Dale’s explanation and included it.  See, it’s
just me being dumb and imprecise in my language.  I used the term “comment”,
and I really should have used the term “post.”  And, that,
ladies and gentlemen is a really fine example of why having a dialogue with an
officer of Christ Church is a tricky and often not very productive business. 
They are just so masterful in their use of rhetoric.

Rose, 

 

I didn't pull the comment. I pulled the post. 

 

There's a difference.  I have the ability to delete
individual comments or the top-level post. 

 

You should talk to Tom or Keely about this. They actually
read the comments my posters make more carefully and frequently than I even do.
Working 2.5 full time jobs, I don't get to the comments as quickly as they do. 

 

I never even saw Witmer's comment. Only what they posted
onto V2020. 

 

Finally, we'll just have to disagree about censoring
posts. I think that leaving an ugly comment from one of your side of the aisle
speaks more voluminously than my censoring it for no one to see. 

 

Best,

Dale
