Apologies Always Suffice...
...when a DemoPrat makes a remark like this:
"The man who, how do I phrase this diplomatically, who will put a bullet between the president's eyes if he could get away with it. The toughest senator, the best representative. A great, great member of the Congress of the United States."
The "triggerman" being discussed is Senator Charles Schumer (D-NY). The man making the comment is NY State Comptroller Alan Hevesi, who is also a Democrat.
Where was the comment made? At the Queens College commencement. Nice sentiment for a graduation, don't you think?
Now I really don't think Hevesi meant that Schumer would actually pull out a gun and shoot President Bush. He was speaking metaphorically. And he did apologize.
However, can you imagine the furor if a Republican said the same of a Republican lawmaker and a Democratic president?
Tacky.
Michelle Malkin says he is Bush Derangement Syndrom exhibit #999.
