Newt understands that this will affect the GOP. He knows we must get past this FAST, and Rush’s apology will help to do this. An endorsement of Rush apologizing is quite a bit different than Santorum saying he was absurd. Can people not just look at a bigger picture here?

You are right, Rick’s statement was worse. But Newt said too much as well. And keep in mind one thing: Rush may be setting the table for a double reverse on Monday - in which case - it would have been better not to be on record on this issue at all.

Unfortunately, no, because many here are basically the same kind of people that populate the DU; the only difference is which labels provoke them to knee-jerk, thoughtless responses and reification of their prejudice. Though the packaging is different, their operating systems and processor speeds are all about the same.

Rush himself, says he uses the absurd to make a point.

Rush does not say he apologizes to make a point. LOL

Santorum understood, Newt was, as usual, being Newt.
