Let's all stop with the apologizing..and the demands for apologies
I do not want to hear bennet apologize.. I do not want to hear "Fudge-Brownie" apologize..don;t want to hear *² apologize..

I want them to ADMIT to their bare naked racism.. They do it gleefully..it rolls right off their silver (forked) tongues..(when they think no one will be paying close attention)..

"Sorry I said/did whatever" is a hollow excuse for an apology.. and "Sorry if i offended anyone" is even worse..

Just STFU...all of them...

again.

11. Yup
And the first person who tells me it's racist to call someone a racist will get a swift and firm lesson in logic. I am soooo effing sick of that rw talking point.

6. I agree
because even if they suck it up and apologize, they are still racists and they will do it again. I can't believe how some humans just refuse to evolve.

Bennett's remarks are just unbelievable though! Whatta jerk!

7. Boy, do I agree with THAT! Who GAS about a lame apology?
If it's voluntary, that's OK. I guess sometimes everybody slips and says something stupid. But I think demanding an apology is just dumb. Verbaly hange them on their words, make 'em slither away in shame, but an apology is meaningless!

8. Exactly....
And he doesn't even seem to get what everyone is upset about. Not the part about aborting babies, but the implied connection between being black and crime.
Every dog will have his day.

19. That's bogus
I'm way sorrier than you. In fact, I have been called a sorry excuse for a human being. I apologize.

12. I couldn't agree more.
Now that they are showing their true colors, let the chips fall. If no one tells them they have gone too far, they might just fall over a cliff.

I have to believe that the majority of americans are not racist hatefilled thugs. It might play to their base but it could drive normally non-political people to the polls.

14. Perhaps use these statements to justify filibustering Janice Brown?
Edited on Fri Sep-30-05 03:55 PM by gulfcoastliberal
A batshit-crazy African-American woman on the * Scotus short-list? I hope so - that'd take some intestinal fortitude on the part of the dems. Hell, 20-1 odds she flies through confirmation faster than Roberts despite the batshit-crazy paper-trail from her Cali days. Bush loves to stock his house negroes and dare the dems to oppose them. Dems automatically fold once the right wing "dems are hypocrite racists" spin begins.

18. I have been saying this for a long time
It sounds so juvenile - "you better say you're sorry"

Have you ever listened to Sean InSanity when he starts on this line of crap. It's like being back in Junior High.
