Happy Hour Roundup: Vitter apologizes to Maddow
Happy Hour Roundup: Vitter apologizes to Maddow

http://voices.washingtonpost.com/plum-line/2010/07/happy_hour_roundup_51.html

Senator David Vitter is apologizing to Rachel Maddow for suggesting she only looked like a woman "a long time ago." Vitter's office sends over the note of apology he's written to the talk show host:

Dear Rachel,

Regarding my remark during a radio conversation today, I apologize.

The hosts made their comment and I obviously chimed in. While we do not usually agree on the issues, I do not think you deserved that comment.

Sincerely,

David

1. Makes me wonder what he has up his sleeve...
Hard to take anything that a diaper wearing repuke says at face value.

2. "You do not deserve that comment" still doesn't mean "I was factually wrong".
It's like saying "I'm sorry if you were offended".

4. He's a rethuglican, that's all we need to know.




Need I say what an apology from someone who has an (R) at the end of their name is worth?

5. I hope she slaps the shit out of him.
Not that it takes much effort to make him shit, apparently.

6. I'm surprised
he did it. mainly just cause republicans are assholes and never apologize. i mean he should have apologized so good he did. better next time not to say stuff like that, even better would be if he would examine why he would say that about her in the first place and do a bit of soul searching. wishful thinking there i'm sure. we'll know if he does cause any awakening on his part would cause him to quit the republican party out of total disgust. :evilgrin:

9. This does not fully dispose of the LOADS (R) he has been dumping
A start...but he's got a long way to go to clean his act up.
