35. I'd add another "I'm sorry"

8. I'm sorry that you have spent decades excusing and supporting calls for violence from your supporters. I'm sorry that someone took your rhetoric about "jack booted thugs" to heart and bombed a government building in Oklahoma City. I'm sorry that your supporters have murdered doctors who helped women with the most important decision of their lives. I'm sorry a congresswoman from Arizona has to live her life with brain injuries, because a violent psychotic took your rhetoric seriously. I'm sorry that two were murdered at the Knoxville Unitarian Church because an angry man was lead to believe liberals were to blame for his failures. I'm sorry that after over 20 years of violence you have done nothing but feed the anger and hatred of your followers, and have allowed your voices in the broadcast media to continue to foment violence.
