I wish you are right but sadly Durbin refuses to apologize for his idiotic comments.
from the AP:
Quote:
CHICAGO Illinois Senator Dick Durbin says he won't apologize for comments comparing American interrogators at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to Nazis and Soviet gulags.
News of the Democrat's comparison created a buzz around the Internet today, fueled by sound bites of yesterday's Senate floor speech on radio talk shows. By this afternoon, Illinois Republican Party Chairman Andy McKenna asked Durbin to apologize.
Durbin says the Bush administration should apologize for abandoning the Geneva Conventions.
Human-rights activist groups and some lawmakers -- mostly Democrats -- want Bush to close the prison.
But administration officials say some of the people who have been detained at Guantanamo later return to fight against the United States.

The only good that is coming out of stuff like this is that the modern Democratic party is speeding along blindly towards irrelevance. Most American's have no issues with officials who don't like Gitmo but they rightfully draw the line when they attack the troops there.
