(((YAWN))) Apologies are a dime a dozen these days. Everybody is apologizing these days. Some are even apologizing for apologizing.

Surely Jews were not the only folks in Germany who were left to the tender mercies of the Gestapo? This is ridiculous.

I think the only thing faster than a Demonrat stealing your liberty and money is a Republican making an apology for an accurate statement.

As a Mainer I thought his comment was right on. He could have used today’s statement as an opportunity to slam not only the IRS but the TSA, EPA and the list goes on. I’m sorry he apologized (even though it seemed like a weak apology).

Didn’t the IRS take it as a compliment to their new efficiency though?

Never never never never never never never do the Obamaphiles apologize.

Never.

Screw the PC crowd. Everyone KNEW what you were referring to, governor.

Sarah Palin and Michele Bachman seem to be the only Republicans with BALLS.

Why not a non apology apology? He should have said that he apologizes to anyone that was offended except for IRS and those that support the IRS.

Judging by the reactionary response from the left, you would think no one ever used the Gestapo comparison before.

Swiss apologise after comparing German tax probe to Gestapo

The Swiss banking association was forced to apologise last night for remarks by its chairman that the activities of Germany's BND intelligence agency in a nationwide crackdown on tax evaders were reminiscent of the Gestapo.

In a statement issued last night, the Swiss banking association said Pierre Mirabaud, its president, "regretted the impression that could have been conveyed when he talked about Gestapo methods in relation to the German intelligence service".

Gillard’s Tax Office Gestapo Hangs Small Business out to Dry

Driscoll – “Australia’s taxation system is currently ranked extremely poorly by World Bank/Pricewaterhouse Coopers rankings yet Gillard’s Gestapo wants to hang small business”.

The United Retail Federation, a peak national industry body representing retailers and small business across Australia, has condemned the approach of the Australian Taxation Office in ramping up ‘public hangings’ on small business cash transactions labelling them “the hypocritical Gillard Gestapo”

Maine Gov. Paul LePage apologized Monday for referring to the Internal Revenue Service as the "Gestapo"

How does this "insult" anyone (other than the IRS - who richly deserve it)?

The man speaks the truth.
