It’s all about the money, eh Gunny?

So very tired of people backing away from totally correct statements.

Just absolutely sick of politically correct apologies.

Patriotism means never having to say you’re sorry.

Well R. Lee Ermey was an Obama-bot in support of the Kenyan when he was running.

So why should we be surprised at this latest flip-flop?

He’s just trying to placate his boss, who is trying to placate the liberals.

And if I’m not mistaken, GEICO is controlled by multi-billionaire Commie, Warren Buffett.

It sounds like an apology for being inappropriately political in the wrong circumstance, and not a retraction or apology for the opinion.

R. Lee got the word from the powers that be.

OK, let the flames begin!

He was right to apologize for two reasons.

First, it was a Marine Corps "Toys for Tots" campaign, and politics was not appropriate to the occasion.

Second, he was tying the Marine Corps to his criticism of the Administration. The military in the US, unlike many other countries, goes out of its way to refrain from politics. That is a good thing.

That said, "Have a Happy New Year, Gunny."

I would say that any such comment in such a context would be inappropriate. So if what he’s doing here is apologizing for making such a comment in that context, he’s acting properly.

It was a fundraiser... wrong setting... he is careful with his wording of this.

Reminds me of Patton... by *** it does.

He should have said “Did I say socialist? I am truly sorry and I apologized, I meant Fascist!”

Tonight, Bill O'Liberal just couldn't spit out the word "liar" when it came to Nancy Pelosi.

He had just played a clip showing her lying like a rug on an issue.

The best O'Fencesitter could do was to say over and over again for the next ten minutes "She was NOT telling the truth. But I can't call her a liar. I'll just say she's delusional".

If Mr. O'Magoo ever called her a liar, he'd spend the next six weeks backing off from it like the other yellow-belly above.

When ‘green’ speaks louder than ‘red/white AND blue’. Sad to see people give up truth, grovel down when real spine would have them standing upright. All to pathetic really; and we are all the losers. . .
