Aides: Rumsfeld to Apologize to Congress"
By DAVID ESPO, AP Special Correspondent

WASHINGTON - Amid calls for his resignation, Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld drafted an apology Friday for not keeping Congress informed about abuses of Iraqi prisoners in U.S. custody, defense officials said.

FReepers, since apologizing seems to be the order of the day, let's show 'em how we "apologize!" Let me begin with my own profuse apologies to the entire nation:

I'm sorry we ever had a president who's version of the truth was to say, "It depends on what the meaning of the word IS, is."

As a Californian, I sorry for this pathetic bunch of Dems in my state's congressional delegation: Baca; Becerra; Berman; Boxer; Capps; Cardoza; Davis; Dooley; Eshoo; Farr; Feinstein; Filner; Harman; Honda; Lantos; Lee; Lofgren; Matsui; Millender-McDonald; Miller, George; Napolitano; Pelosi; Roybal-Allard; Sanchez, Linda; Sanchez, Loretta; Schiff; Sherman; Solis; Stark; Tauscher; Thompson; Waters; Watson; Waxman; Woolsey.

I'm so sorry people like Barbara Streisand, Michael Moore, Jane Fonda and any other members of the Hollyweird limousine-liberal crowd breath air.

I'm deeply sorry that the voters of Massachusettes keep sending Ted "The Swimmer" Kennedy to the U.S. Senate.

I'm sorry we just didn't nuke Mecca on 9/12/01 and be done with it.

I remember when people were posting this shortly after Sept. 11 and were getting heat for it from a certain small crowd of FReepers.

I am also sorry for being so irritable but I neglected to pick up after the dog poop this morning and later stepped in it...

Having three dogs myself, I'm sorry I know the feeling. I'm also sorry every day of the week isn't Friday. Sigh.

I had a heated argument on 9/12/01 with a project manager who kept insisting people shouldn't say things like "we should just nuke Mecca." He missed the point that, for some of us, it was the strongest way we could express our anger.

I apologize for people like that project manager.

I could never get past Seinfeld's opening (yawn) monolog. And I thought "Friends" was stupid after watching about 20 seconds of it.

I'm sorry I don't get to see Al, Peg, Kelly, Bud, Buck, Marcy, Steve, Jefferson, Officer Dan, Bob Rooney, the nudie bar.......

I am sorry that the French, Germans, Russians, and Kofi Annon stole the money from the Oil for Food program and screwed over the Iraqi people.

I am sorry that Americans had to pay for the war why these jerks made millions and refused to help.

I am sorry that the French, the German people, and the Russian people have such bad Socialist/Communist governments...

I am sorry I forgot to add Spain and Canada to that list too.

There is one advantage to toll roads, if you are a passenger, you can see billions of stars you couldn't see in the city lights. But maybe that's just me.

I'm sorry more people don't have the loyalty and decency of most dogs — even pissy Dachshunds who aren't housebroken are better than some human beings.
