The George Allen apology

Well once again the Republican party has proved where its heart really lies. So here was George Allen running for relection to the senate in Virginia. His opponent like any good campaigner had a volunteer follow mr. Allen around to tape what he was saying. Now the young man, S.R. Sidarth, who was following Mr. Allen around happens to be of Indian ancestory but is and I quote an NATIVE BORN AMERICAN CITIZEN. Mr. Allen however decided to make fun of this young man by saying.

"This fellow here over here with the yellow shirt, Macaca,(Which is a slur meaning Monkey) or whatever his name is. He's with my opponent. He's following us around everywhere. And it's just great. We're going to places all over Virginia, and he's having it on film and it's great to have you here and you show it to your opponent because he's never been there and probably will never come. [...] Let's give a welcome to Macaca, here. Welcome to America and the real world of Virginia."

Now Mr. Allen just yesterday finally apologized to Sidarth but come on He knew what he was saying.
