I can't really retract it because, having read enough from those who use the term (see again Mr. Buchanan), I believe there are many who actually hold that view. Had I not believed it, I wouldn't have said it.

It apparently doesn't apply to OWK or Jolly Rodgers, so I will happily apologize to them specifically.

Tell me if I've misunderstood. You're going to let stand a bigoted comment, which you concede falsely accuses at least some people of bigotry, and amend it on an apologize-as-you-go basis?

Suppose someone actually said "neocons are jew-boy communists," and offered to periodically grant specific exceptions?

I don't think the latter approach is acceptable, nor is yours.
