Rudd said 'sorry' for mistreatment. Now how hard was that?

A real 21st century PM found it easy enough, guess that shows Howard really was more at home in the 1950's

Pretty hard.

Obviously too hard for Howard to say.

well i just hope sorry is only the first step and not the only step

It seems pretty ridiculous that is was so hard and took so long.

You would think it was a lot less effort than all that organised genocide.

I'm with Liz ... apparently it was for Howard

It looked easy in the end didn't it !!

But don't forget Howard did say 'sorry' - just no one took much notice of it really ...

"Howard"
................I speak for all Australians in expressing a profound sorrow to the Aboriginal people. I am sorry. We are sorry. Let the world know and understand, that it is with this sorrow, that we as a nation will grow and seek a better, a fairer and a wiser future.

well...probably because now comes the sewing. Now they have accepted responsibility and people can sew them.

Now comes the demand for financial compensation, as night follows day. In fact, it has already been made a few days ago. That is why Howard would not say it, and it is one of the very few things I agreed with him about.

Mr Rudd may have said "Sorry", but I did nothing to say Sorry for, so he didn't say it for me and 1000s of others.

Now just how much is this sorry going to cost our country?

Sorry for what not me i did not do anything to them,they need to build a bridge and get over it,i had a hard life as well as them i was put in homes as a child,i understand that's how it was back then,i don't blame anyone for that so asking someone to say sorry to me is the wrong thing to do
