Wasn't it a short time ago that Senator Biden had to apologize
for his "clean" comment. Media and repukes were all over that and I don't remember Biden apologists on the air protecting him. But the media is happy to have Olielly's apologists on the air to try to interpret his, "aren't we all the same under the sun in this big rainbow", as what he really meant.

1. Excellent point. Biden defended himself because his statement really DIDN'T
reflect his feelings. As we know, he meant to imply "young and fresh". His choice of one word was unfortunate but understandable. Nobody needed to apologize for Biden -- his intentions were "pure"

O'R's comments (plural) on the other hand, HAVE no conceivable explanation rather than exactly what they were -- statements from a narrow-minded, uninformed biased white man of the privileged class. Nobody would believe his own protestations, in fact he'd probably dig himself deeper, so those who want to keep holding him up as a shining example of the Right.

What a buffoon.
