When I was young, and in a fit of anger had hit my sister for arguing with me, my father, among other things, would ask that I apologize to my sister.
If I had said to her: “I apologize that you interpreted what happened as an act of violence. But all I did was alert you and others to your lack of regard for my position. You should apologize to me and others for being wrong.” I would have been sent to my room for being a smart ass.
Where’s Kerry going with this one?
