I have decided to reject Glenn Beck's apology
http://mediamatters.org/blog/201005280055

From a statement posted on Glenn Beck's website:

In discussing how President Obama uses children to shield himself from criticism, I broke my own rule about leaving kids out of political debates. The children of public figures should be left on the sidelines. It was a stupid mistake and I apologize--and as a dad I should have known better.

3. I'll give him a little credit for one thing:
He actually owned it, and didn't go with that "I mis-spoke, sorry if anyone was offended" crap.

But he's still an asshole and I don't accept his apology. Even if he repeats it on the air.

4. So say we all.
Managing to work in a further attack on Obama while "apologizing", and not even dealing with his reprehensible flirtation with a pickaninny voice while mocking Malia? There's not a rock big enough for him to crawl under.

5. How is it a mistake?
He's only apologizing because he doesn't want people using it against him. Apology or no apology, he said it and it'll be used against him.

He can't help himself.

12. Same here - but no chance in hell he will get canned
POS! What ever the hell happened to standards in the media? There was a day much much less would get a media person canned.

13. I have decided I'm joining you. Typical rethug maneuver; say something,
get the message out there, then take it back once the damage is done. Hopefully this will cause him some damage, the p.o.s.
