Repub Apology: "I offer my sincere apologies to you--the email was not meant for you."
I love those Republican apologies

"Again, for those select few who might be truly offended by viewing a copy of an email I sent to a select list of friends and acquaintances, unlike the liberal left when they do the same, I offer my sincere apologies to you--the email was not meant for you."

1. Ah, the standard right wing apology
An apology without an apology. They're so good at that!

2. Ahh the old "I'm the victim" apology...
Intertwined with the standard "I'm not a racist.. I have black friends" comment. Topped with a sprinkling of "It's the liberal media's fault". :rofl: I swear they probably have this shit written down somewhere.

4. Translation: "It's exactly what I believe, but
since you aren't racist pigs like myself I'll offer this fake apology.

10. yeah, like the black EMT that is going to save her life after an accident
looks down at her and sees some silly klan type literature in her purse.

The EMT would probably be a professional and help her though. She'd have to live the rest of her life knowing someone of color saved her life.

9. what she/he meant.
hey, if you didn't know I hate blacks and people of color by now, too bad. I have a bunch of friends that I feel safe around disrespecting anyone
that doesn't look like us. So, anyway, I made a mistake of not realizing some of you aren't racist, xenophobic, homophobic and haters of other. I wish I wouldn't have been drinking so heavily.

I would confront first and drop her from my "friends" list in a heart beat.

11. That's a non-apology
She's saying she sorry you saw it. Not sorry it was wrong to send it.
