    Two wrongs do not make a right. And even with others being equally guilty or moreso, doesn't mean I shouldn't try to be a better person by apologizing for our country having a crappy president.
    A lot of Republicans are not racist, but a lot of racists are Republican.

        They don't have to bother boycottng me. I would not want to contribute anything of value to them red states, considering they hog enough money from the federal government as it is.

          Its a bad world out there. If we show weakness it could invite an anti-American feeding frenzy. Our friends understand how we feel and our enemies won't listen to apologies. Carter tried being the nice guy and it got him nowhere.

            Just a test for you Che. I assume you are not an idiot. But does that automatically make you a great public speaker?

            No?

            Perhaps the converse is true as well.

              When you do so, be sure to pass out your Clinton-personalized cigars.

                I'm not sure what the New York Times says about this. Maybe you should ask NotYouEither (NYE), or somebody else present, how silly it is to mix up two distinct entities like Bush did.

                Ned: Sorry, the Clinton-personalized cigars were starting to smell reaaaally bad (which wasn't surprising considering how/where he personalized them), so they were thrown away.
