Yes Dick, We're All Very, Very Sorry.

The Dallas Morning News speaks for me on the national embarrassment that is Dick Durbin, and his cowardly non-apology.

We're sorry that anything else Mr. Durbin might say about allegations of torture at Guantanamo Bay simply cannot be believed, thanks to his way-over-the-top screed. We're sorry that in his haste to score political points against the Bush administration, he chose to squander his credibility by linking U.S. troops to despots who killed millions of innocent people.

We're sorry that Mr. Durbin woke up this morning still the Senate's assistant minority leader - the second-ranked Democrat - and that it apparently hasn't occurred to fellow Democrats that he should step down from the leadership.

Go away Dick. You're not worthy.
