The headline is incorrect. That's not an apology. If these were the words of Trent Lott saying he regretted if some people misunderstood his remarks about Strom Thurmond, the leftists would sense the blood in the water and demand a true apology.

I think this is how the GOP needs to be with this remark. It's no apology. It's "I'm sorry you misunderstood". Big difference, IMO. They need to press for a complete apology.

The headline should be:

Left-wing Senator stands by U.S.-Nazi comparison

That headline would be a heck of a lot more accurate.

ON top of that, Trent Lott DID APOLOGIZE, seven times!

Durbin DID NOT APOLOGIZE, in fact he goes on to say that is is our fault because we misunderstood him!

It's no apology. It's "I'm sorry you misunderstood".

Sounds more like "I'm sorry I got caught".
