02/27/2003 Archived Entry: "Liberal MP apologizes for remark about American 'bastards'"

I THINK YOUR BASTARDS, I JUST DIDN'T MEAN TO SAY IT: Yet another Liberal MP (I'm going to have to start using YALMP) has publicly apologized for an anti-American remark.

Liberal MP Carrolyn Parrish, a nobody in her own ranks besides on the national stage, stated yesterday, "Damn Americans, I hate the bastards." The remark was picked up by a TV microphone and after the story broke Parrish issued a hasty apology.

"My comments do not reflect my personal opinion of the American people and they certainly do not reflect the views of the government of Canada."

Of course they don't.

[Update - 1:28pm] This isn't the first time Parrish has made the papers making an asinine remark. Damien Penny chronicled last fall how she berated the National Post for running a journalist's stories because he won an award from B'nai Brith.
