Sounds like an appropriate apology without the usual “But” or other minimizing statement at the end.

Good for her fessing up.

Leftwing morons who shoot of their big mouth and then “apologize” for it are real flaming ***holes. AMERICANS need to start refusing to accept their apologies. That crap is getting old.

I only read the headline. Our culture is in a tailspin and it is being aided by the media, politicians and judges that act like politicians. I guess I could throw sports figures and Hollywood in there too.

Why do we forgive so easily OVER and OVER and OVER and OVER on the right?

Trump’s the only one with balls.

I've said and written a few things I regret over the years.

When you make such a mistake you can't apologize quick enough.

“ Good for her fessing up.”

She forgot to add this:

“Because of my lack of good judgement and my obvious political bias, I resign, effective immediately.”

“Disagreeable” is not enough. Disagreeable is when a child doesn’t want to leave a playground and whines about it. Anyone who would even think that making a joke about a person becoming paraplegic for life is a nasty person who has made more than one “joke” about people whose politics they disagree with.

PDJT has been attacked over and over for three years because he made hand gestures that some interpreted as mocking someone with a disability. It may have had no relation and there has never been a pattern of his mocking anyone with a disability.

This judge deserves public censure, at least. The people who laughed are also disgusting.

Maybe because Jesus said to.

Democrats are a hateful bunch of scumbags, this is a reminder of that fact.

Dems use the “love trumps hate” sign to mean the exact opposite of the bullying, nasty behavior they exhibit.

Jesus said to turn the other cheek.

I'm willing to turn all four cheeks, ONE TIME EACH. After that? well...

This judge lacks judicial temperament. Needs to leave the bench and go back to being just a regular shyster.
