I thought this was going to be about Mark Cuban.
The non-apology apology is the most generous rhetorical dodge our society still grants public figures, in spite of it's robotic disingenuousness - you just copy/paste the standard form into a sheet of paper and read aloud on TV or send out as a press release. This is apparently just too complicated a process for this bag.

A prominent South Carolina Republican killed his Facebook page Sunday after being caught likening the First Lady to an escaped gorilla.
Commenting on a report posted to Facebook about a gorilla escape at a zoo in Columbia, S.C., Friday, longtime GOP activist Rusty DePass wrote, "I'm sure it's just one of Mic e's ancestors - probably harmless."
Busted by South Carolina political blogger Will Folks on his FITNEWS blog, DePass told WIS-TV in Columbia, "I am as sorry as I can be if I offended anyone. The comment was clearly in jest."
Then he added, "The comment was hers, not mine," claiming Mic e Obama made a recent remark about humans descending from apes. The Daily News could find no such comment.

you would think politicians would THINK before posting something (or emailing something) for the world to see, but I guess not...
ESCAPED GORILLA! LOL
Pastor Manning you sonofa .
Blacks = monkeys, apes, jungle bunnies?
The Repug Aryan party shows its true "color".
And, shockingly, (old or new) South Carolina? Generalizations welcome!
He meant evolution.
You racists need to quit assuming racists thoughts because of your racism.
/sarcasm, c'mon guys

When did Mic e Obama ever say anything about evolution?
that must be it. he was mocking her for her stance on evolution.
Is that supposed to be the world's most average-sized violin?
"He meant evolution."
what he meant.
He said MO was descended from (related to) a live, contemporary gorilla. iow, a gorilla as the parent of MO. No evolution involved.
blacks as monkeys/jungle bunnies is a well-known, ancient insult.
All the Aryan bubbas/Christian supremacists he was pandering to know EXACTLY what he meant.
Do a Google image search of
+Bush +chimp
Did those people pretend that they were talking about Bush's stated stance on evolution?
How is that equivalent to Mic e Obama? I'm sure you'll have a good answer, because we all know how much you love to go on and on about how unfair "moral equivalence" is.Do a Google image search of
+Bush +chimp
How old was the gorilla?
The worst part is any apology that says, "I'm sorry IF..." A proper apology is "I'm sorry THAT I ..."
nah everyone does that on a press release
. he should've just commented on a baseball player having relations with her underaged daughter. the left normally never cares about that
Neither does the right.
You must not be keeping up with current events Chump. It's our #1 issue.
No, no, no. Look you Republican apologists!!!! This is OUTRAGEOUS in the extreme. Forget the lame comparisons to late night idiots or anything else. Do you all really intend to limit the Republican Party to the old confederate states in perpetuity?!? This is EXACTLY the kind of thing that makes reasonable people just cringe at the notion of identifying with the current Republican Party.
Come,on, now. MAN UP!! Call this racist out for what it is!! Say NO! This guy is not any kind of republican! Tell all of us that you REJECT that! Please!
Man, that's pretty ing stupid. What's even more stupid is attempting to defend it.
Also not surprising that originated out of South Carolina.
pitbull 's "base" of Southern Repug Aryan/"Christian"/in-bred supremacists strikes again:

lol, what the ? "I'm sorry you found out I was a racist"
Nashville Is Talking asked Goforth about the e-mail:
When I asked her if she understood the controversial nature of the photo, Goforth would only say she felt very bad about accidentally sending it to the wrong list. When I gave her a second chance to address the controversial nature of the email, she again repeated that she only felt bad about sending it to the wrong list of people.
“I went on the wrong email and I inadvertently hit the wrong button,” Goforth told NIT. “I’m very sick about it, and it’s one of those things I can’t change or take back.”
Jonah Goldberg is going to require back surgery after all the god-awful contortions he'll have to pull trying to explain why she's actually a liberal.
Racism is an exclusive trait of the left. At least that's what I've been hearing.
You're a little late to the party.
