It is absolutely not forgiveable HillWilliam Apr 2012 #1
What kind of turnaround would someone have to exhibit? Prism Apr 2012 #4
Mumbled apologies aren't enough for me HillWilliam Apr 2012 #18
If the person believed this 20 or 30 years ago, then probably yes obamanut2012 May 2012 #81
This smells like bait to me. Now why don't you reveal who said such a thing? MADem Apr 2012 #2
Juries keep hiding it Prism Apr 2012 #3
I question you because you didn't reveal who said it or the context. MADem Apr 2012 #10
What, exactly, would you like me to do? Prism Apr 2012 #14
OK--I take your point. MADem Apr 2012 #21
Treating those who mistreat and misuse others kindly does not express 'fairness' at Bluenorthwest Apr 2012 #25
Usually, when they are dragged over here, it's for the "point and laugh" entertainment value. MADem Apr 2012 #42

You and I have seen the lies Prism Apr 2012 #15
Well he did not say sorry at all. He lied right here on DU and did not own it nor apologize Bluenorthwest Apr 2012 #16
But it's not civil of you to say so Prism Apr 2012 #17
Dishonesty is never civil, a lie is not civil. I will always call out a lie and a liar... Bluenorthwest Apr 2012 #19
You and I are on the same page Prism Apr 2012 #20
I am in error then--I thought he did apologize. MADem Apr 2012 #22
Thank you. Just thank you. Bluenorthwest Apr 2012 #27
