Of course she apologizes and said it was misunderstanding. What else choice does she have? Doesn't mean it's believable. She replied to a tweet, she took the time to press that button. This wasn't a mistake. A misunderstanding. She chose to make that comment. THe explanation doesn't hold water, it makes no sense.

The comment was made in reply to that comment. Her explanation that her reply was meant to be about something not involved in the comment she replied to is utterly moronic.

Nope, you could be absolutely right.

Or, she could have had a horrible moment of stupidity and not realized what she was actually "approving".

OR... it could be a bit of both, she is a racist, but was too stupid to realize that she was revealing it.

People these days just seem to be so sure of everything and so convinced that their opinions are the only possible valid opinions.

I still find her incredibly hot.....don't know why....but yeah, I do

I also agree.

Anyway, I'm confused now. I thought the Oilers were fixed and finally on the road to being a playoff team and eventually cup contender.

Today I look at the standing and they've lost 4 straight and have a +2 goal differential on the season.

Are they going to suck again? Did they win the 2016 Octocup?

Oh... I am not debating the original tweet. It was garbage. I just think it is possible tha the Mayor was not thinking before she tweeted, rather than her being a racist.

hey... just allowing for the posssibility.
- Aetherial

She replied to the tweet. She was directly linking to that tweet. It wasn't an accident or missunderstanding. She agreed with the original poster. Saying that this was misunderstanding and out of context is weak excuse.

They won't suck as bad as before.

It was her responsability, especially as a public figure, to be careful when approving messages.

I just don't see how you can see the word "ape" in there and not immediately jump off the stupid train going straight into the wall.

No excuses for her, I'm sorry, it might be only my opinion, but I can't see anyone trying to defend her in any credible way.

Cuz she is

Seriously... some people show no respect for our dynasty.

She replied to this comment..... But it's possible that she was referring to something else.

Awesome response.

Oh hell yeah.

Actually, one of the girls from Grad school looks kinda like a younger, slightly hotter version of her.

I'm sorry no one should be dumb enough to think this. It is a terrible excuse. Utter nonsense.

She is, because she's attractive, seems smart, and hilarious, and like she would good to go.

This should be a sticky at the top of every HB comment page.

1) A woman? Who gave Saudi Arabia the finger, and who took tens of millions on campaign donations, from the very countries where women have almost zero rights.

1) Again, we will see about racism. Minorities have not exactly flourished under democratic rule either.

2) Maybe they just wanted a change from being ruled by people in the pockets of the terrorist-producing, oil-producing countries. Or is none of that true also.

2) Maybe they just don't like the whole email scandal thing? It is pretty (frank)ing ridiculous to be honest.

... Keep in mind, I wouldn't vote for Trump either, but there is a LOT to not like about the Clintons and many people were unhappy with the Obama Presidency. It does not necessarily have to do with the horrible things that constantly being suggested about republican voters.
- Aetherial

They were not campaign donations (foreign campaign donations is illegal) but they were donations to the Foundation. I honestly don't know of many charities who turn down donations.

Minorities may not have flourished under democrats, but they also haven't been so threatened as they are if Trump keeps up his rhetoric.

As for the comment about "people in the pocket of the terrorist-producing, oil-producing countries", I assume that you have evidence to connect the dots as you have here?

WRT the emails, I don't like it either. But despite numerous investigations there's been no evidence that she committed any criminal act, so it's time to drop it. (frank), it was time to drop it months ago.
