Orrin Hatch Apologizes. Kind Of.
Apparently this open letter thing works!
Senator Hatch has now issued a letter climbing down from the pile of lies he told about Carol Lam on Meet the Press this weekend.
He now says thought he was talking about a person named "Alan Bersin" when the name "Carol Lam" accidentally escaped his lips instead.
Given the massive media attention and debate about "Alan Bersin" recently, I can understand his mistake.
For more on this weird controversy, tune into my next show, titled, as always, "Yet Another Two Hours of Talk Radio All About Alan Bersin".

Oral Hatch
I saw Tim Russert 'sort-of' respond to the Oral Hatch 'apology' today on Meet the Press. It was dismal if anything. He may have spent 10 seconds on the subject. Whereas he should have spent 10 minutes apologizing to his viewers why he didn't take him to task last week. It was an utter failure on Russerts part not to explain or even acknowledge that NBC didn't do their homework on that one. It was a total sham!
