re: #27 Lidane

I loves me some Bill Clinton and I’d vote for that charming bastard again if I could, but yeah. Owning up to past mistakes isn’t one of his strong suits.

I coulda sworn he’d made an apology of some sort a few years ago, so I went and looked…

“I realized that I was, you know, over 60 years old,” Mr. Clinton told [Anderson] Cooper [in a 2009 interview]. “I grew up in a different time. And I was hung up about the word. And I had all these gay friends. I had all these gay couple friends. And I was hung up about it. And I decided I was wrong.”

Two years later, he endorsed legislation in New York legalizing same-sex marriage and last year taped a phone message urging voters in North Carolina to reject a ballot measure banning such unions.

Works for me.
