These non-apology apologies*** keep getting more, erm, elaborate:

“I sincerely regret that my words were misinterpreted to wrongly imply anything negative about those in uniform and I personally apologize to any service member, family member or American who was offended,” Kerry said in a statement.

Still, I hope we can move past this quickly. This was a particularly shameful dirty political move on the part of the Republicans—the kind that Republicans seem to specialize in when they think they’re on the side of right: they will do whatever it takes to win. (See my discussion of James Baker in this post.)
