Until Andrew Sullivan acknowledges and regrets his own behavior regarding the Bush Administration, I will find his sanctimony repulsive.

During the brief period, in 2006, when he was in between spewing irrational cr*p defending Bush and spewing irrational cr*p attacking Hillary Clinton, I believe he did address his "third column" comments.  He did not give a flat out apology, of course, nor admit how dangerous his comments were, but he did acknowledge the error of his ways in trusting Bush (don't make me look in his archives, I have long since sworn off going to that man's website).

My position, however, is that whether and how much he apologizes, regrets, whatever you would like to call it, is pretty much irrelevant.  The real problem is that he shattered any credibility, permanently, with the third column stuff.  There is nothing he could say that should allow him to regain credibility as someone whose opinion on anything political should be taken seriously.  Forever.  That's not to say he should be taken out and shot.  Perhaps he could find success writing a food column or something.  But as a political analyst, he's a fool.
