Whats abouts if dem Dems started insisting for apologies?
I heard a rumor (didn't verify it) that McCain was insiting Durbin apologize.

Well'z, how'z that from a man who got slandered in 2000 by the Bush team.. when they alleged Johnny had a black daughter from an affair, when in reality the daughter was just his adopted black daughter!

Did Johnny insist on an apology? Nope.. So what's he got sweating down our backs for?

What if we start demanding apologies... let's see, there's the "Mythical WMD's".. then there's the "Al Quaida ties".. then there's that Birth Tax they made up. Oh, and what about the prisoners held without trial? I mean, I wouldn't ask them to apologize to ME about that one, nope.

What's about condi and colin's having sayed, in 2000-2001ish, that's them Rackie's hadn't rebuilt their military, then's alluvasudden they're shouting Bloody Murder to them UN that Saddam's got an arsenol that would make Ollie North blush... ("Breaking the Silence" on this web page has those two recorded sayin that junk back in the day... http://mysite.verizon.net/res7dhyg/id3.html ... surprisin only cuz ain't no one caught those two hypocrasizin as much as them others).

Soooo.. now they go around stompin their tweedie shoes around goin "We demand apologies.. we demand apologies..." or else what, they gunna say we'z hidin WMD's or something?

Sheesh, talk about one superpower not having enough balance of power.

1. The purpose of the "apology demand" is to re frame the issue
in question as something the person has done wrong. Just by saying that the other should apologize convinces many that there was wrong doing.
