SPRINGFIELD -- Shaken by charges of racial insensitivity, U.S. Sen. George Allen offered his most expansive public apology Tuesday for comments made to an Indian-American man. "I deeply regret those comments," Allen, R-Va., said Tuesday just before leaving the podium at a Northern Virginia retirement community. "I have no one to blame but myself. A person was insulted and others were. I'm fully responsible for it. ... I want to live up to all your expectations. I'm very sorry and I apologize."

Allen Apologies To S.R. Sidarth
Hours before President Bush was scheduled to attend a fundraiser in his honor, Sen. George Allen telephoned Democratic video tracker S.R. Sidarth to apologize.
The news was buried at the bottom of a press release issued by James Webb's campaign.
Wed, Aug. 23: Twelve Days Later, After Numerous Excuses and Apologies to Everyone But Sidarth, Senator Allen Calls S.R. Sidarth to Apologize. [Phone call, 8/23/06]
Frickin' wimp. I really get pissed when republicans appologize for remarks. Stand by your beliefs or keep your mouth shut. Calling someone a name like Macaca, or what ever it was, doesn't call for an appology. The republicans fall for that crap every time.
They succeeded in getting liberals more in tune with the election to turn Mr. Allen out of office.
More importantly, THEY SUCCEEDED IN GETTING CONSERVATIVES TO TURN AGAINST MR. ALLEN, IN FORUMS SUCH AS RIGHT HERE ON F.R. AND ELSEWHERE.
Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.
Let's keep on piling on Senator Allen. After all that is what the liberals want us to do and we have to be obedient you know. They want us in an internecine, reactionary mode, rather than united, backing up one of our own (see voting record) and going on the offensive.
The last thing the GOP needs is another politically correct redneck.
Grow a pair, Senator.
Please make it stop. I can't take any more apoogies
Maybe he should meet with Cindy Sheehan and apologize to her...
Whoever is advising Allen needs to be fired.

Please just stop it! Keeping the story alive doesn't help, and I'm sick to death of hearing about it.
This is crap. This kid does not want an apology. The Liberals are running with this. I know. Sidarth is my bosses sisters son. He likes the celebrity attention he is getting.
This is great. Let's keep eating up our own, rather than uniting behind someone we need in the Senate...let's give that Virginia Senate seat to Webb(D) anyway. He'd be much better than Allen anyway, vote wise. In fact, we need more lib dems in the Senate. Oh my my The liberals love over at DU and elsewhere must love watching us go for the bait and implode.
I won't be happy until he puts on an brilliant ivory evening gown, goes to Poplar Forest, stands in the necessary and sings the apology to the tune of Terri Jack's "Seasons In The Sun".
The outdoor necessary by the road, not the one indoors and certainly not the one near the kitchen.
