Wednesday, June 29. 2005Rick's latest hypocrisy caught on tape Click to watch Rick on Imus Last Thursday, Rick made an appearance on "Imus in the Morning" to discuss whether Senator Dick Durbin had properly apologized for his recent remarks regarding possible prisoner abuse at Guantanamo Bay. In a stunning show of hypocrisy, Rick told Imus that Durbin had not apologized satisfactorily and used his own "apology" for his recent remarks comparing democrats to Hitler as an example of how to say you're sorry. “Mr. President, it is very clear that even though I thought I had said something that clarified the situation, to many people it was still unclear. I'm sorry if anything that I said caused any offense or pain to those who have such bitter memories of the Holocaust, the greatest moral tragedy of our time. Nothing, nothing should ever be said to demean or diminish that moral tragedy.” “I'm also sorry if anything I said in any way cast a negative light on our fine men and women in the military. I went to Iraq just a few months ago with Senator Harry Reid and a bipartisan Senate delegation. When you look in the eyes of the soldiers you see your son and daughter. They are the best. I never, ever intended any disrespect for them.” So how did Rick "apologize"? He released a statement to the media in which he said that his comment "was a mistake and I meant no offense." Which of these two statements seems like an honest, heartfelt apology to you? In the future, Rick might want to leave etiquette advice to Emily Post. Comments
