Durbin apologizes for Gitmo remarks
Chokes up, crawls on his abject white belly, licks the jackboots of his Jew Massas on Senate floor whining cringing cowardly traitorous CUR about earlier Nazi comments

June 21, 2005

Sen. ***** Durbin, D-Ill., apologized on the Senate floor today for
comments he made comparing treatment of detainees at the Guantanamo
Bay prison camp to the Nazi Gestapo, Soviet KGB, and Pol Pot's killers
in Cambodia.

"Some may believe that my remarks crossed the line," the Senate's No.
2 Democrat said. "To them I extend my heartfelt apologies."

Durbin's voice choked and his eyes teared up as he apologized to U.S.
soldiers who may have taken offense.


"They're the best. I never, ever intended any disrespect for them," he
said.


On the Senate floor last Tuesday, Durbin read an e-mail message from
an FBI agent describing alleged prisoner abuse. The senator said if he
didn't identify the source of the information "you would most
certainly believe this must have happened by Nazis, Soviets in their
gulags or some mad regime – Pol Pot or others – that had no concern
for human beings."


After the remarks drew outrage from talk radio and weblogs, Durbin
initially refused to back down, charging that right-wing media
misrepresented him.

He insisted he wasn't criticizing service personnel but pointing out
abusive treatment of prisoners was something more likely in
"repressive regimes" than the United States.

"The administration should apologize to the American people for
abandoning the Geneva Conventions," Durbin said.
