In my world, equivocation on important matters is a sign of failure. Persons of honor do not exist in the margins, waiting for interpretation.

Not more or less.

Kerry: Well, let me just finish. Let me must finish. It was, I think, a reflection of the kind of times we found ourselves in and I don't like it when I hear it today. I don't like it, but I want you to notice that at the end, I wasn't talking about the soldiers and the soldiers' blame, and my great regret is, I hope no soldier--I mean, I think some soldiers were angry at me for that, and I understand that and I regret that, because I love them.

Seahawk,
If this is what is being considered Kerry's "apology, I would have to say the answer to your question is a resounding
"LESS!"
"...I don't like it when I hear it today." = "DAMN! This crap is ruining my campaign!!!"
"...notice that at the end, I wasn't talking about the soldiers and the soldiers' blame" = "At first I was all over those murderous SOB's, but I ran out of things to accuse them of so..."
"...I think some soldiers were angry at me for that, and I understand that and I regret that..." = "For a bunch of thugs who weren't war heroes like me, they sure do have long memories...DAMN! This crap is ruining my campaign!!!"
