    I stand up and say, “sorry.”
    To my Aboriginal sisters and Aunties today in Canberra - my thoughts are with you. To the sisters and aunties not able to go, my spirit stands with you as you receive an apology from white Australia.

    My sentiments exactly. But as is my style, a little more potty mouthed….

    Wow, a leader saying sorry. It will be all over YouTube. No one apologizes in America, we make excuses.

    I would to say my simphaty and sorry for all that have been done, also salute for Prime Minister Kevin Rudd which has representated the White Australian to say sorry.

    What a monumental day. Hopefully now we can start to heal and move forward as a nation united.

Got something to say?
