Dick

Dick, you still don't get it. Our interpretation of what you said was not wrong, Dick. Our understanding of your choice of words was not wrong, Dick.

Your statements were wrong, Dick.

Smokescreens don't help, Dick.
Colin Powell did not draw an analogy between our soldiers and the Nazis.
You did, Dick.
The FBI email did not draw an analogy between our soldiers and Soviet gulags.
You did, Dick.
No other member of the United States government drew a parallel between our soldiers and millions of murders ordered by Pol Pot.
You did, Dick.

I have learned from my statement that historical parallels can be misused and misunderstood. I sincerely regret if what I said causes anybody to misunderstand my true feelings.


Your "historical parallels" were nothing more than hateful, ignorant, treasonous lies, Dick.

More than most people, a Senator lives by his words, words are the coin of the realm in our profession. Occasionally words will fail us and occasionally we will fail words.


You have failed more than words, Dick.
You have failed the Senate, Dick.
Even though they are becoming the party of hyperbole, you have failed the Democrats, Dick.
You have failed on many levels, Dick.
And your statements indicate you still fail to understand and take responsibility for the depth and the breadth of your failure.
