It certainly was appalling to see the president of the United States
apologizing to an illegal alien rapist-murderer for hurting his feelings
while not even being able to correctly remember the name of his American
victim.

Of course that wasn't what he was doing at all as I'm sure you are
aware. The reason for the quick backtrack was to avoid people in the
media decrying his use of the word.

So Biden has no backbone, then?

He has no need to create an unwanted controversy over an item that
isn't worth bringing up but our 24 news hour cycle will do so to help
fill the hours.

You don't think it's deliberate to distract from the fact that Jose
Ibarra got paroled into the United States when Immigration and a second
encounter with Border Patrol failed to run his name to discover that
Homeland Security had already identified him as a gang member, not to be
allowed to enter?

No, because I don't believe that was on his mind at that moment. It
was simply using a word that he knew would create controversy and from
what I heard supposedly Nancy Pelosi said not to use. So it would
clearly be on his mind much more from some typical governmental muckup
at a level that's far below where he operates. I wouldn't blame any
President for such an action, but I would blame them if they are made
aware of it and take no steps to prevent it from happening in the
future.
