It all depends on the person.
I personally have a very high tolerance and matabolism for alcohol and other drugs. I had about 18 beers in under 90 minutes less than two hours ago and I'm sober up pretty well right now and know I won't have a hangover tomorrow. I know when I am plastered off my ass I might let one or two things more slip than I would if I was sober, but other than that I talk and act about the same. I have never had to rely on the "I was drunk excuse", if I ever had been drunk and said something, I will correct myself in the morning by saying, "yes, that wasn't the best thing to say, but it is true."
From that respect, I simply do not know what people say when they cannot recall the next day, when they say, "I'm sorry, I was drunk." But I do have the ability to respect it as not everyone has the same tollerance/metabolism as I do.
Personally, I don't go and get pissed drunk in public where I could possibly offend someone else. If I ever get truely drunk off my ass, I do it in relative private where the only people I would come in contact with would be friends. I would recommend this to everyone because any true friend, in my opinion, should be able to say their fellings when they are so far drunk that they do not remember even starting drinking the night before.

One day an Englishman, a Scotsman, and an Irishman walked into a pub together. They each bought a pint of Guinness. Just as they were about to enjoy their creamy beverage, three flies landed in each of their pints. The Englishman pushed his beer away in disgust. The Scotsman fished the fly out of his beer and continued drinking it, as if nothing had happened. The Irishman, too, picked the fly out of his drink but then held it out over the beer and yelled "SPIT IT OUT, SPIT IT OUT, YOU BASTARD!"
