More people will read the apology than those who watch MSNBC.

Why would they apologize for illustrating what the day is about?

I don't get it.

LOL!...the On Screen Text just makes it perfect. .

To bad the left has no humor because its funny as hell..

And if FOX had done it.. the dem in Congress would be trying to shut them down with MSNBC leading the charge.

From an article when Obama was running for Occupant. The SS agents in the background add festive zing. All that's missing are the maracas.

Obama crashes Sombrero Fest

"Sen. Barack Obama made a surprise visit to [the] Sombrero Festival Friday. Obama picked up a torta and posed with Joe Angel Lopez, 21, of Brownsville...Obama had attended a prayer meeting at UTB-TSC earlier in the day."

Then Governor Jesse Ventura explained to David Letterman why the streets in Downtown St. Paul were so confusing - laid out by drunken Irishmen.

The Irish had a cow: eg.https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/soc.culture.irish/xM2A2rEbWY4

I am completely convinced that there isn’t one emotionally stable adult at MSNBC.

Oh yes they did.

When it comes to lies, they draw the line.

The Irish work hard, study hard, and put things together and fight wars.

And

They like to visit, drink and eat.

But drinking while working Is nothing they accept.

anyone wishing to attribute that mixing to the Irish need to look at who put NYC together - the bricklayers, ornamental plasterers. St. Patricks Cathedral was not built by anyone other than the Irish, who at least raised the funding and the talent, if not the workers.

So it’s a real faux pas to not be honest about making fun of the Irish.

They have many contributions and are proud of any earned reputation, and won’t suffer liars.

Jesse thought he was making a joke. The Irish couldn’t take it.

It’s become a weekly ritual for these idiots to have to apologize for something. Apologies are awfully cheap these days.
