First, that he feels his OP "perhaps" should have been deleted because it made the first political comment and got the ball rolling.
Second, political content can really ruin a thread and cause geometrically exploding posts of heated dialog.
I have a recent example of this. I was with my wife at the Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa last week for her latest appointment. One of the patients in the waiting room asked if the TV channel could be changed to something other than HGTV (I've noticed recently that almost all doctor and dentist offices I'm in are on HGTV). The receptionist replied that it was the Center's policy that all TVs be turned only to HGTV. The patient asked why, and she replied that during the last presidential election one of the TVs was showing a news channel, and two cancer patients got into a nasty fight over the content of the show!
So, lets all take a deep breath and resume our frank discussions of music and musicians and things like HIP. That can get heated enough for everyone.
