Has he apologized to Obama for his son saying he should go back to Kenya?

(2,140 posts)6. I voted no,due to the fact it would be fake and meaningless.....
In an alternate dimension,where an asswipe like that had a shred of charactor and moral turpitude,I'd vote yes....Although,in that other dimension,he'd have never said such a thing....

(42,703 posts)10. He should apologize to Wisconsin's Jewish community for not knowing what a real anti-semite is
Jewish groups, appropriately, get upset when comparisons between some behavior and the Nazis or Hitler are made because it creates a false equivalency. They should demand an apology from Thompson for doing the same thing.
