Why is it, that when the left attacks they have to apologize?
The president and his cronies constantly refer to the left as enemies. After the last four years one would get the impression that it was the left that hijacked those planed on 9/11 and lied about WMDs in Iraq.

For the live of me I can't figure out why Democrats constantly see the need to apologize for hitting back. Afterall, given the Republicans talking points the last few months, I get the impression they want folks like myself dead.

I never see anyone demanding the Republicans apologize for the shit they say about us. CRIKEY!!!!! They've gone so far as to call us the party of Ossama Bin Laden!!!!! The righties never scurry about worrying about how it's going to play out in the press or how indie voters will react to the statement. My bet is that has a lot to do with the fact that opposition party rarely hits em back.

1. No sense trying to please them.
Look at Rush, he didn't even apologize and every network said that he did. They get credit for something they don't even do while we are supposed to grovel for their approval, well screw that! I say stay on the attack. Peace, Kim

2. It's all bullshit.
The wingnuts were just looking for something, anything on which to launch their fake outrage. It's just subterfuge because they don't want to hear the MSM talk about the ass-kicking they are about to get in a few days.

4. we should never apologize when the puke pigs squeal.
Instead, tell them to kindly shove their apology request right up their totalitarian asses.

7. To hell with the GOP...
I for one am glad Kerry fought back! I knew exactly what he was talking about when I HEARD THE ENTIRE SPEECH, not just a part of it.
