President George W. Bush delivered remarks on Goree Island in July 2003 acknowledging the transatlantic slave trade as one of history’s greatest crimes. He described the horrors and injustices of slavery and segregation without offering an apology.
The piece surveys how presidents rarely issue direct apologies for major harms from wartime actions to slavery. It notes Obama’s apology over Qurans disposed at Bagram, GOP critics like Gingrich and Romney, and instances where leaders frame errors without full apologies, such as Bush, Nixon, and Reagan.
Newly released Alaska state emails show Governor Palin under relentless ethics scrutiny after 2008, expressing fatigue over attacks she says pushed her toward personal bankruptcy and family strain. The documents also depict her ongoing duties as governor and preparations for public events amid the controversy.
A CFRB study estimates Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum tax cut plans would sharply raise deficits, Mitt Romney would add hundreds of billions, while Ron Paul’s cuts could shrink the deficit. Paul would eliminate five departments and end Iraq and Afghanistan operations, with large spending cuts dwarfing tax losses.
Mitt Romney outlined a far reaching plan to gradually delay Americans eligibility for Medicare and Social Security. He said the shifts, starting in 2022, would be tied to life expectancy and would not affect current or near retirees. He cited longevity as a reason to steer the programs toward sustainability. He also urged cooperation with government and industry on future changes and noted his focus on preserving stronger benefits for lower income seniors.
Newt Gingrich declined to oppose Washington state’s new gay marriage law, saying it should proceed via a voter referendum. He noted judges have legalized same sex marriage elsewhere and cautioned a public vote is not guaranteed.
