After having something like 6 opportunities in the last two days, Kerry finally issued a gutless "apology" via a posting on his website. He didn't even have the guts to do it on camera where the views could judge his sincerity. You can read it a Hugh's site.
The media is spinning it furiously in the hopes that it will end his (and their) misery, but I don't think this is going away anytime soon.
Kerry is still sticking with the "botched joke" defense (sort of like the "Twinkie defense" from a few years ago), and a thought occurred to me that I haven't heard expressed elsewhere. Supposedly Kerry and his fellow lefties consider Iraq a terrible disaster for the United States. How then would such a disaster be in any way appropriate content for a joke, even if it wasn't botched? Does Kerry also have a collection of Hurricane Katrina jokes? Or Oklahoma City bombing jokes? Or maybe World Trade Center exploding jokes?
If someone truly believes an event or circumstance is a disaster, they won't joke about it. This tells me that for Kerry and the Dems, Iraq is not a disaster, just a political opportunity.
