I don’t know. I guess I’m just thinking being oversensitive sort of short-changes the chances to actually fix problems instead of just muffling them up.

Nobody is allowed to be remorseful anymore. Whatever you’ve done, and to whatever degree, can only be rectified by your career ending and you going away forever. And if you do apologize, you’ll only be ripped into more fiercely.

Republicans have learned this, which is why they rarely apologize. It’s better to deny, deny, deny, and wait for it to pass out of the current news cycle, because there’s always something new waiting to offend people if you give it a few days.
