Half-Assed Apologies
By Zamboni
If there's anything that we cats dislike more than Republicans questioning others' patriotism or indulging in anti-Obama racism, it's Republicans offering lame, qualified mea culpas for crossing those despicable lines.
Latest case in point: This repulsive image, produced in a California GOP women's group newsletter. Although the president of the group has resigned over it, she apologized "to anyone who was offended."
Madam, the entire world is offended at this. There are no "ifs" about it. Say you're sorry and be done with it.
It reminds us of Sarah Palin's idiotic backpedaling on her "real America" comments and her implication that urban or sophisticated areas of the country are less patriotic than small towns. "If that's the way it has come across, I apologize," she said.
Shame on you, Governor. You know exactly what you were saying and how it was "coming across." We swipe our claws at you and at the now-former president of Chaffey Community Republican Women, Federated.
And we are so glad that Democrats don't do stuff like this.
