"Asked by Blitzer, who, exactly he was apologizing to, Spicer said, 'Well, clearly, anybody who not just suffered in the holocaust or is a descendant of anybody, but frankly anyone who was offended by those comments.'
Then, in another verbal hiccup, the spokesman said he hadn't meant to be a distraction as Trump tried to 'destabilize the region,' pointing to Syria and the Middle East. "
Oh dear...
Did you see Blitzer on Jeopardy. They guy is an idiot.
They smell the blood in the water, they are not going to stop this anytime soon.
If we didn’t laugh, we’d cry
Mounting calls for him to quit? Give me a break. who the hell do these people think they are?
Sean Spicer needs to be gone, not for the comparison but for the apology. By that apology he has made himself an agent of MSM. His effectiveness is at an end.
Oh screw Wolf Blitzer. He doesn’t own the holocaust either. Tell me exactly who Spicer offended by comparing one Jew hating mass murderer to another. This is so much BS.
The same leftists who say Trump is like Hitler are offended if you say a muslim mass murderer is worse than Hitler? puleeze.
Mounting calls = 50 media talking heads that hate trump and the DNC.
Only liberals are allowed to compare anyone to Hitler.
Well it just goes to show everyone the double standard in the left wing media. A Republican makes a mistake speaking off the cuff and the left demands his or her resignation. If a similar mistake was made by a left wing progressive, the MSM would ignore it.
NO!!! NEVER APOLOGIZE TO THESE JERKS!!! For YEARS conservatives, me, freepers, republicans, Bush, Cheney, Trump, ANYONE not a progressive democrat have been called Hitler and Nazis.
SCREW THEM. I haven’t heard these jerks ONCE condemn the constant onslaught of political ‘enemies’ called Nazis and Hitler. SCREW ‘EM.
Well you gotta admit he stepped on his ****
Yes, I’m afraid you’re right. This apology is a terrible mistake.
It was a dumb thing to say.
People of course go overboard in their outrage and incessant chatter.
Stupid.
Not a holocaust denier.
Mistake of words...
Grow up....
Just as a rule of thumb, on TV, don’t bring up Hitler or the Holocaust.
‘Holocaust Center’ sounds like a place kids for for a field trip.
Spicer is technically correct.
Germany did not use gas in battle, because they knew what the retaliation would be.
They used it on prisoners of their own. And when that was discovered, the retaliation was everything they feared.
Feeding the sharks won’t make them go away. The GOP will never learn that.
