How can he post something that Bush has yet to say?

Good point! Though you might want to mention it to Ish, he would like people to eat there words based on what Bush hasn't said yet.

And I don't seem to recall Clinton ever apologizing about anything, without first having his arm twisted.

I seem to recall Clinton apologizing about Rwanda and there was no arm twisting.

The same guy who posted about some "eating their words" posted that Bush had apologized yesterday morning. I couldn't find it anywhere.

Bush has had PLENTY to apologize for to this point. He can't even think of a single mistake he's made. That's simple minded for anyone to the extreme.

I also love it that when a problem with Bush is exposed, the desperate supporters respond with, "But look at Clinton!" Schoolyard (and I'm talking elementary schoolyard) debate at it's best! :)

I had this in mind when I came upon two versions of the Presidential letter apologizing to those Japanese Americans who had, because of ethnic heritage, been incarcerated, evacuated, relocated, or otherwise rounded-up and mistreated during WWII. For those who don't know, the apology letter accompanied checks for $20,000 sent to Japanese Americans as reparations for their wartime uprooting. I have copies of one signed by former president George Bush sent to my grandparents; the other, which my aunt received, was signed by Bill Clinton.

No one is ever going to accuse you of having selective memory.

Ish said Bush apologized, in the Rose Garden, if I recall. If he didn't actually do it, you'll need to take that up with Ish.
