Another non-apology by a 1%er

[n2doc]

BY KEN LOVETT
Kenneth Langone has issued a statement apologizing for his comments linking the progressive's strategy to fight income inequality to Nazi Germany.

"My remarks were intended to discourage pitting one group against another group in a society. If my choice of words was inappropriate -- and they well may have been that -- I extend my profound apologies to anyone and everyone who I may have offended," Langone said in the statement.

His comments to Politico set off criticism and calls for Cuomo to repudiate the comments and even return the money Langone has donated and raised for him.

Cuomo and his aides so far have been silent. UPDATED: Cuomo spokesman Matt Wing says, Langone "apologized for using inappropriate words."

1. It's Ken Langone.

An arch-right wing conservative worth a couple billion doesn't have common sense or empathy built in. Listen to his CNBC "interviews" . ... . this sort of stupidity is par for the course. His friend Bernie Marcus is even worse.

2. Classic Republican apology - chock full of weasel words.

3. He's Sorry

He used the wrong word in there should have been "screw" you.
