She doesn’t need a public apology. That would not of made any of you happy that were crapping on Michele before Rollins came along. He was nothing more than an attempt at a justifiable excuse.

You want to hate her because she isn’t Palin.

Fine, you can do that, but at least be honest about it. Face it, no apology would please you or any Palin fan.

I am missing an apology to Michele when Palin mentioned Michele was really lacking executive experience. I could respond for Bachmann to that, but I will refrain from that. You can probably guess what that would be.

Thats all fine, but turnabout really is fair play.

Why she anyone apologize because Bachmann has no executive experience? She doesn't.

As I said on another thread, the hatred for Bachmann around here is:

1. She's not Sarah Palin;

2. She's not supposed to be running for president, Sarah Palin is.

These days many Palin supporters will trash anyone who have even the slimmest chance of either keeping her from running or getting the nomination instead of her. But as I've also said if Palin had jumped in most likely Bachmann would not be running and Perry wouldn't be thinking about running. As long as she stays out others will jump in. They're not going to wait to see what she does.

Correction:

Why she should anyone apologize because Bachmann has no executive experience? She doesn't.

Jealous woman Alert!!!! Lol!

Palin was ASKED what are the differences between her and Bachmann! Should she have said none?

This fan club mentality is really annoying. Both Palin and Bachmann are acceptable candidates. Bachmann has actually entered the race, so that puts her a league ahead.

We should know better than to play these stupid games by now.

An apology within 24 hours of the incident would have been accepted by ME, at least. But now? Now, when IF it’s true, it is only being done because MB now sees it has hurt her with potential voters.....and NOT because MB has an iota of decency, or gratitude for Sarah’s campaigning for HER? I say STUFF your apology where the sun doesn’t shine!

Misrepresenting the facts again, I see...Sarah was asked by a reporter for difference between herself and MB. She politely said "executive experience," unlike Rollins who drove MB's dagger in deep.

You can’t possibly know how people here would react to a public apology. That’s ridiculously arrogant. My response would have been, “it’s about time, good for her”.

Saying someone doesn’t have executive experience is hardly the same as insulting their character and intelligence. Surely even you can realize that. One is personal, the other is simply a statement of fact (if it’s not Bachmann is certainly capable of correcting it). Discussing someone’s qualifications is a normal part of campaigning. Personal attacks on someone who hasn’t (and may not) enter the race isn’t. Especially when you consider Palin campaigned hard for Bachmann.

The insult was public so the apology should be too.

What about those of us who honestly thought Michele Bachmann was great, were somewhat dismayed when she erred and hired Rollins, then became entirely flabergasted that she allowed him to go out multiple times trashing Palin and yet remained stone silent, for days, without firing Rollins, or even giving him a reprimand.

Perhaps you’re feeling put out because Michele Bachmann is not Sarah Palin, but I’m getting more and more disgusted seeing a good person corrupted by listening to party elites and hacks. Everything and everyone they come in contact with, they ruin.

Of course a public apology is the only appropriate option.

Palin made that comment after the nasty personal ‘stupid, quitter, everything handed to her’ comment from Rollins and you compare the incredibly personally insulting comments her campaign STARTED with Palin just making the argument Bachmann has no executive experience! You are grasping. This was started by Bachmann.
