Morford: Why Won't Dubya Apologize?

San Francisco Chronicle ^ | Wednesday, April 21, 2004 | Mark Morford; two made deadlines in her last dozen

[The kings dead]

I asked my wife what she thought about people who said Bush should apologize, and she replied, "For WHAT?! Was he flying those planes??" I had a hard time explaining what they were going on about.

WHY do I even have to read the name Morford on FR?
Isn't it bad enough that I live in the Bay Area and run into this crap all the time in person!?
FR is my island of sanity, please don't bring Miss Morford onto it anymore! UGH! ICK! SPIT!!!!!

Morford, people like you who whine about Gibson's movie are in the MINORITY. Get over it.

Maybe it's faux-macho Texas pride. Maybe it's dumb-guy humiliation, that feeling that if Bush admits to just one of his policy defects, it's a slippery slope toward admitting he hasn't had much of a clue as to what's going on in his administration since pronouncing our country's name as "'Murka" in his swearing-in ceremony.

Maybe Mark Morford wouldn't know honesty if it ran up and slapped him in the head.The fact of the matter is that we "regular" people don't mind that the President said "Murka",that part is unimportant in these times.We understand he is doing his best to keep the terrorist and the idiots from destroying this country.I will take this inarticulate,"macho Texas" President any day.Now why would the President apologize when he is doing the job he was elected to do.?
