Saying "It was my fault it was misinterpreted" is not an apology. It is an accusation against one's intelligence.

Letterman has always been lacking in humor, integrity, honor, and decency. Don't know how he has been televised for so long, but I do know why Johnny Carson didn't select him for the "Tonight Show".

Time for the western governments to make some major adjustments. Stop importing goods from muslim nations, stop allowing tourists to go to muslim nations, and raise the price of grain to 1 kilo for a barrel of oil!!! Do it...do it now!!!

Groping a girl...would make me angry if he put his hands on my wife. Pushing onto the tracks, probably just pushed and fell off the platform because there are no safety rails in place.

""Almost suggests" that he is wishing" means he just about, almost, maybe, kind of, sort of, wishes, or so it seems. An irresponsible remark for a man in his position. Sure, he is entitled to his opinion, but being a public servant requires using judgment when making public statements. This lack of judgment begs to question his suitability for his current position as CIA director.

Even though I am in favor of capital punishment for hideous crimes, studies show that the death penalty is not effective as a crime prevention measure. If death were an effective deterrent, then people would stop having children because birth leads to an inevitable death. All the death penalty really does is set an exact time and place for the inevitable death to occur. As gruesome as it may seem by western standards, the middle east had the best deterrent for crime. For example, if you stole something, they would cut off your hands. You would still live, and you would be a constant reminder to would be thieves of the punishment that awaits them.
