Sen. Durbin Apologizes for Gitmo Remarks
 
Quote:

WASHINGTON - Under fire from Republicans and some fellow Democrats, Sen. Dick Durbin apologized Tuesday for comparing American interrogators at the Guantanamo Bay prison camp to Nazis and other historically infamous figures.

"Some may believe that my remarks crossed the line," the Illinois Democrat said. "To them I extend my heartfelt apologies."

His voice quaking and tears welling in his eyes, the No. 2 Democrat in the Senate also apologized to any soldiers who felt insulted by his remarks.

"They're the best. I never, ever intended any disrespect for them," he said.

Way to go Dick.

I love the non-apology. He's sorry that we were offended by his hateful, irresponsible and downright dangerous comments. He is a man to be admired.:rolleyes:

Thanks a ton, Dick.
