Wait, wait, wait, waitaminit. Now it's his "responsibility".

Hastert takes responsibility, but won't step down
Quote:
House Speaker Dennis Hastert took responsibility Thursday for the growing page scandal but said he has done nothing wrong and is not a detriment to Republicans' efforts to keep control of Congress in the Nov. 7 election.

"The buck stops here," Hastert said at a press conference outside his office in Batavia, adding that he will let the numerous investigations determine whether anyone-including any of his aides-did anything wrong.
Hey, is it just me or does the new vogue "apology" and taking "responsibility" strike you as, well, hollow, to be charitable. With qualifiers like: "take[s] responsibility...but did nothing wrong". WTF?! Even the Pope does it. Sheesh.
