DURBIN APOLOGY CLINTON STYLE

Faced with biting criticism for his Gitmo Nazi guard speech last week, Senator Dick Durbin did a so-called apology. It's a Clinton style apology.
Basically a Clinton style apology never admits to having done anything wrong, rather it shifts the blame to those who perceive that something said or done was wrong.
In Durbin's so-called apology there's no admission his Senate remarks equating Gitmo military guards with Nazis, Stalinists and Pol Pot are woefully wrong. Rather Durbin says he is sorry some of us folks out here got offended by his remarks. In other words, tough luck if we took his remarks in such a way as to be offended. In other words, it's our problem, folks, not his.
In a pathetic Clinton imitation, Durbin almost came to tears as he delivered his fake apology. He joins a long list of leftists who resort to lip quivering, teary-eyed on-camera moments as they cover their ass.
Almost as offensive as the Durbin attack on Gitmo guards and his Clintonesque apology were the remarks of Senator John McCain.
McCain sprang to Durbin's defense on the Senate floor, offering remarks praising Durbin for his, as McCain put it, "heartfelt apology."
Baloney, Senator McCain. A heartfelt apology is delivered immediately after one offends, not a week later. Durbin's sole reason for a so-called apology is a reaction to all the heat, some of which came from the likes of Chicago Mayor Daley and much of the Illinois media.
It took a week for Durbin to try his cheap apology trick. We're not fooled by it. The Gitmo military personnel are not fooled by it and most of the American people are not fooled by it.
When you publicly state that Gitmo guards are doing a fine job and equating them to Nazis was totally and completely wrong and intended only to score political points, we'll believe you. We await your apology, Senator. A real one, that is.
