World, I apologiZe for Maya; she’s an idiot.

[GnL]

I always thought her poetry sucked.

[Rocko]

The same country that treated her so badly she now has the money to fly over to hang out with the Eurotrash?

[edzo4]

no she will only have to apologize when home

[MarkeyD]

But will she apologize when nObama’s policies cause a world wide depression.

[RichInOC]

Stick with poetry, Doc.

Oh, wait a minute, that sucks too...

[lmc12]

Maya but you do have to apologize to those who know and appreciate real poetry not the sappy doggerel you “write”.

So all that baloney about past transgressions of the US wasn’t true?

What do you say when they ask why Bill Clinton wasn’t turned over to the Hague war crimes tribunal for trial?

[Syncro]

Wow little old Marguerite Johnson has a new name!

[TommyDale]

She never had to apologize for America. She CHOSE to be an embarrassment for America.

[CaliforniaCon]

Since it’s been so bad for her here in the U.S. all these years, why didn’t she MOVE?????????????????? She certainly had the means!

[albie]

Dumb Biotch!

[OB1kNOb]

There’s no fool like an old fool.

My ancestors left Europe because they didn’t want to live there. We saved Europe’s butt three times in the last century. We gave the World a republican form of government, a written constitution, and democratic elections. They gave us monarchy, fascism, and communism. I don’t worry too much about European opinions.

[billhilly]

She needs to apologize to the country for calling herself a poet.

[mnehring]

Just a wild and crazy thought here.. how about not apologizing for the United States of America, ever!.. No country has done more to help so many around the world. No country has sacrificed more, no country has given more, no other country is the first on the scene when disasters strike the world... How many billions of lives have been saved because of the USA.. Our faults are shared by every other country in the world, they are the faults of humanity, not the USA. The difference is, we overcome our faults. Her statement is proof that the election of Obama was meant as a symbolic victory only. It was never about the content of his character.

[messierhunter]

So nice to know that this staunch patriot would rather bow to the whim of world opinion, that she cares more about what her elite friends overseas think of her based on her nationality, than she would stand up for the principles of the constitution and speak out about the great strides this country has made in the last 40 years, evidenced by the latest election. I thought this election wasn’t about race Maya? This election should be a vindication for all those that said we shouldn’t have to elect a black president just because he’s black to prove we aren’t racists. It’s like the tale of the accused witch thrown into the river to see if she floats like wood. When she drowns the villagers say she must not have been a witch. Well, we’re about to drown.

[riverdawg]

She should apologize for taking a six-figure salary from Wake Forest University for all those years.
