I’m still waiting on that straight answer. Do I need to repeat the question in context for you?
You brought it up first.

Indeed and I’m still waiting for that straight answer.

Then you should open your eyes and take off the biased blinders.

You’'re waiting on an answer where someone said drawn and quartered? I have no idea.
I’m always happy to give a straight answer.
Now where is yours?
What happened to your “always happy” claim? Please link to a straight answer you have given, ever.
That was a straight answer in reply to your post.
Now again, how about a straight answer to this, if that is you can manage just one.

I didn’t “justify” anything. If I said we shouldn’t disembowel her for saying that, you would claim I was “justifying” what she said.\
Where is even offering an apology mentioned in the posts I responded to?
You seem lost again. Perhaps repeating will be helpful.

i’m sorry, that made me laugh. it’s too early to laugh like that.
But if it brings a week of negative press
that is determined only by how rabid the press is… not the severity of the infraction
Well they had to come up with something to bitch about to counter the good news.
No I don’t, but I am just talking about the general practice of wanting people fired or suspended or whatever for making 1 stupid comment. Not just talking about the Whitehouse but society in general. The reason you don’t see a lot of sincere apologies anymore is they are never good enough for some people.
Ah, I see what you’re saying. I can’t say I disagree with that. But I do feel there is a separate standard that should be applied to the White House as opposed to broader society.
WildRose:Hyperbolic? This entire discussion is a hyperbolic rant about an insensitive comment someone made in private.
Sure private. All over the news for the past 5 days means private.
You people using it for political purposes is why it is public. If being public is the problem, blame the leaker who made it public and the media that has been using it.
It was one private and stupid comment origianally. Something somebody said that went flat and grabbed on for political purposes.
And sure, you can fire someone for making one stupid comment even after they apologized. Don’t pretend moral superiority in doing so.
huh? A comment about a sitting senator who’s vote you are counting?
So you wouldn’t fire your housekeeper for mocking someone with cancer?

BTW - she doesn’t have to be fired. All this could easily go away if the WH simply acknowledged the inappropriateness of the comment and apologized for it publicly.
Instead it’s a story for a week.
The WH didn’t make the comment, and the person who did made her own personal apology which is exactly as far as it should go.
An insensitive comment made in private by a low level WH functionary does not require an official aplogy from the POTUS. Demanding one is petty BS and opportunism.

ah, but that’s Trump’s super power. Never, ever apologize or admit fault. i bet a number of people here have ex’s that never apologized or admitted fault too. maybe that will put things into perspective for them.

I must have missed something, did Trump tell her to make the comment?

Hmm comments from the WH don’t count unless the prez tells them to make it. okayyyy
Man I wish I was aware all these crazy made-up rules during the Obama years.
