"Palin apologizes for rebuke on community organizers
Sarah Palin apologized, sort of, to Barack Obama and community organizers who felt slighted by her slap during the Republican National Convention.
Palin, the former mayor of Wasilla, Alaska, said in her speech that being mayor was sort of like being a "community organizer, except that you have actual responsibilities."
"I certainly didn't mean to hurt his feelings. Didn't mean to offend any community organizers either," the Republican vice presidential nominee said last night in her second national interview, aired on Fox New Channel's "Hannity & Colmes." "What I was doing certainly, should be obvious, was direct a comment to him as he had taken a shot at small mayors across the nation," Palin added. "They're on the front lines, they're held accountable every single day that they're in office, with real responsibilities that do demand that accountability (Boston Globe).
