I Guess "Crooked" is Stronger than "Asshole"?
Bush: No Apology for Gaffe -- September 5, 2000
The Republican presidential candidate George W Bush has said he regrets the fact that people heard him make an insulting comment about a journalist, but he refused to apologize. Just before a campaign speech in Illinois, Mr Bush said to his running mate Dick Cheney: "There's Adam Clymer, major league asshole from the New York Times." Mr Bush later said he did not realize that live microphones were going to pick up the remark, but he stopped short of an actual apology.
Kerry Refuses to Apologize to GOP - March 11, 2004
After a union rally in Chicago, Illinois, on Wednesday Kerry told a worker that "these guys are the most crooked, you know, lying group of people I've ever seen." His microphone was still on when he made the comments...
Bush campaign Chairman Marc Racicot called on Kerry to apologize. "Senator Kerry's statement today in Illinois was unbecoming of a candidate for the presidency of the United States of America, and tonight we call on Senator Kerry to apologize to the American people for this negative attack," Racicot said in a statement.
