Sometimes you should refuse to apologize

Dennis Prager has spoken numerous times about common sense and its decline in our society. I think this phenomenon is very much on display with the media circus surrounding Hillary Clinton's recent remarks about RFK. Anyone who knows me knows that I'm not fond of Mrs. Clinton. But to construe that she was somehow trying to raise the spectre of RFK's assassination and correlate it to Obama in any way requires herculean disingenuity. First of all, she was making an analogy about how long a primary season can potentially last, and second, as evidenced by the firestorm of intentional misunderstanding and Clinton's subsequent apologies, to make an intentional comparison would not be so bright, politically speaking.
