Turban-Durbin makes non-apology / aplology

Today Sen. Dick 'Turban' Durbin decided to skirt the possible movements towards censure or inevitable pressure to resign by offering a half hearted, pretend apology covered with crocodile tears, "Some may believe that my remarks crossed the line, to them I extend my heartfelt apologies."
Last week, days after his twisted remarks comparing our soldiers to despotic regimes led by mass murderers, he refused to apologize. Later he offered a non-apology apology by saying,"I have learned from my statement that historical parallels can be misused and misunderstood. I sincerely regret if what I said caused anyone to misunderstand my true feelings...." Just what are your 'true feelings' Mr. Durbin? What could you possibly have meant by the statement you made? He apologized, both times, for the perception of others, not his comments. He is trying to dowse a fire of outrage, but not accept responsibility. He turned the onus on the receivers of the comments (you and me) not himself.

The lighter side of this is that he just left the republicrat McCain and other members of his party holding the bag. Now that's FUNNY! You see, when he first made the comments he had a flurry of Democrats hit the MSM screaming support for his rhetoric. Now, by saying that he never meant what he said, he leaves the onus on his cohorts. I love it. This is Democrat Demagoguery at it's best. I get such a chuckle out of it because, I know that this is just another chapter in the yet to be written novel, " How the Democrats went the way of the Wig party".
