Why Won't Dubya Apologize?
Why Won't Dubya Apologize?
Botched 9/11 info, two botched wars, a gutted economy, global scorn. Why can't W be a man?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



There comes a time. There comes a time in every raw dumb imperfect beleaguered human's life when s/he has to face the music and pay the piper and fess up to his or her crimes and misdemeanors and blatant careening flubs and heartless gaffes and whoa where the hell was my brain that time sorry sorry sorry.

We all do it. We all smack our palms to our foreheads and trip on our own ideological shoelaces, and we are exasperating and thoughtlessly cruel without knowing it, running roughshod over our noble or ignoble intentions on a daily basis because, well, we are just wired this way. Just ask Mel "Spurtin' Blood" Gibson -- I mean, how much more wrong can you get?

But then comes the hard part: We apologize. Profusely and maybe even a bit meekly, we ask for forgiveness or at least offer an olive branch and recognize our shared messy humanness as the thing that differentiates us from the saccharine sexless drone people of the world -- like, you know, Laura Bush. Shudder.

1. God Told Him What To Do
Edited on Wed Apr-21-04 08:36 PM by stepnw1f
therefore the nut case doesn't have to apologize.

Admitting he made a mistake is like saying God is to blame or worse, God really didn't tell him to do anything. He's schzophrenic or bi-polar. It's time to remove the sick bastard before we all die.

5. shrub logic
says that since Sadamm caused all the trouble and "forced" our hand, that HE should apologize. Shrub has done nothing to apologize for in his warped opinion.

Jackass
