1. New concept: getting permission for use of copyrighted material. Idiot.

2. At least he did apologize
I know he was probably forced to apologize as part of the settlement, but how many of these instances pass WITHOUT any apology whatsoever? I found the extraneous sound bytes on this Seder clip to be very annoying and childish though, and don't put him in any higher light. And to be honest, Crist is a helluva lot more moderate compared to what is happening in our state now. I know he's not a Democrat or liberal, and considered the enemy to many, but we've got it far worse now than we did with him in office. He apologized. So many don't.

3. You are correct -- it happens a lot. Limbaugh does this constantly and never blinks.
