Apologize, Damn It!

A tipster reports that Queen Elizabeth has been asked to make a formal apology to the United States for its role in suppressing colonists in the United States...or was it slavery? Anywho, post a link, please.

And in other news: the Virginia House & Senate passed a resolution apologizing for Virginia's role in the African slave trade.

Some of the problematic wording in the resolution:
"...the most horrendous of all depredations of human rights and violations of our founding ideals in our nation's history, and the abolition of slavery was followed by systematic discrimination, enforced segregation, and other insidious institutions and practices toward Americans of African descent that were rooted in racism, racial bias, and racial misunderstanding."

Present tense, bitches.
