Yeah, thats some bullcrud right there! Saying that he's sorry for BP having to pay for their clean up! Complete bullcrud! But, these Republicans...................especially those from Texas...............never cease to amaze me. Personally, I think America would be better off without Texas! Instead of Texas succeeding we should just kick them out! Think about it. What good does Texas do for our country? They do serve some good steak. I can give them that, but its just not worth it. Its not worth having these dumbasses as part of our country just because they have some good steak down there. Heck, I can get a good steak up here too. So, its just not worth it.

well at least someone had the balls to stand up for the legal system in the country.

Looks like the GOP's mid-term strategy is coming together quite well. Apologize my arse!

Ah, nothing like apologizing for an apology. Only in politics.

Not quite my friend, they (GOP) are still calling it a half-hearted apology and Minority Leader John Boehner is calling for Barton to step down from the committee. This is still rolling and I'm loving it.

I thought we were talking about this apologizing.....oops wrong thread.

Free Republic (http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2387291/posts) translated the Japanese guide to manners (http://iroha-japan.net/iroha/B06_custom/02_ojigi.html) and finds that Obama’s waiter’s bow was not only subservient and apologetic but it was mean.

".......When bowing while standing, their is the “highest respectful bow” (saikeirei), which is executed from a position of standing straight upward, and then bending 45-degrees or more. “Respectful bow” is at 30-to-40 degrees, and everyday “eshaku” around 15-degrees.

“Saikeirei” is not seen on a regular basis, but is used in order to offer an apology, or when one is extremely grateful for something received, as well as performed before the altar of Shinto shrines and Bhuddist temples. In case of a handshake, straighten the back, and by all means one must look directly into the face (eyes) of the recipient of one’s handshake. It is not to be too strong and not too light. Too strong will reflect an insult and too weak will not reflect good will. In America, such a weak handshake is called a “dead fish handshake”, with the feeling being that the person wielding a dead fish. And, shaking a hand while performing a bow will be seen as subservient (”servile”, “supple”, “mean”), and is not to be done."

^^ Actually, I think you're referring to Jo Bonner, not John Boehner. (http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/104187-top-republican-joins-chorus-calling-for-barton-to-resign-energy-post)
