I love it when the "apology" actually blames the purported victim because they may have found the perpetrator's conduct offensive. Implicit in the statement is that the alleged victim is just overly sensitive. The classic non-apology apology makes one love politics! Jill:

This is not an apology. An apology would read as follows: I want to express my deep regret for making ignorant, hateful, harmful, anti-Catholic remarks. A pox on both of them! “I want to express my deep regret for any comments that Catholics have found hurtful…” This is not an apology.

Donohoe is a flagrant opportunist and hack who allows himself to be used for right-wing causes. Why isn't John McCain being forced to repudiate Hagee, or Rod Parsley, the way Obama had to repudiate Reverend Wright? Why hasn't the MSM been playing tapes of both Hagee's and Parsley's bigotry. A double standard is in play here and sad to say some of it has to do with racism. It is as if Afro-American clergy are not due the same respect as white, religious con men, who mangle Christianity in service of their own prejudice and greed. Hagee is repugnant and demented.

Donohoe is an opportunistic creature that has leaped like puppy, so that he could accept the non-apology of a an actor small "c" christian-that every Catholic Rite considers to be a cult. Donohoe and his organization have as much to do with Catholicism as Bingo!! This shouldn't be construed as my endorsement of Catholicism's neglect of Christian principle. While a member, as it were - I am often booed for my criticism. Indeed it includes criticism of political activists such as Donohoe - frauds, using the cloth as cover. As a Yiddish speaking, Roman Catholic in revolt - I find Donohoe as repugnant as Hagee. One more from the range ….

I’m not Catholic, but I’ll forgive Hagee’s contributions to the continuation of hatred and bigotry in the world, regardless of his twisted rationalization, when President Obama does.
