Talk:Non-apology apology/Archives/2015

Recent additions
I have regretfully reverted the recent good-faith addition of phrases like "lessons learned", "move on", "not a scientist," and "not going to talk about the past." They are certainly examples of political double-speak or obfuscation, but they do not appear to be intended a form of apology; it would be Original Research to categorize them as such. If a Reliable Source describes one of these phrases as a "non-apology apology," we can add that phrase back. There ought to be a place for this type of comment, but looking at Category:Political catch phrases and Category:American political catch phrases, I don't find an article where they could go. --MelanieN (talk) 19:12, 8 March 2015 (UTC)
 * P.S. Actually I see that the same editor added them to "Mistakes were made" which may be a better place for them. --MelanieN (talk) 19:15, 8 March 2015 (UTC)
