Sen. Saxby Chambliss (R-Georgia) apologizes for gay slur that came from his office ("All f@ggots must die") (military, party)

In a written statement, Chambliss said he had removed the employee behind the remark.

"I am sorry for the hurt this incident has caused," Chambliss said. "Regardless of one's position on issues and policies, such comments are simply unacceptable and not befitting those who work in the U.S. Senate, and I will not tolerate them from my staff."

Not good enough. He needs to go through and apologize for his heebeejeebies remarks as well.

The actual fact that this individual is even a Senator is disgusting beyond repair.

I believe that he sincerely wanted to keep it down to a dull roar before the elections. I believe that he sincerely wanted to keep himself from being "targeted" by the LGB&T community. I believe that he sincerely wishes that it hadn't been traced.

Outside of that, there is not ounce of sincerity. The heebeejeebies? The 'effin' heebeejeebies? And this guy all of a sudden is sincere? Nah.

Good.

Add gays to the list of people the tea party has demonized, right after immigrants, Muslims, liberals, union members, Civil rights members.

Saxby Chambliss apologizes for staffer’s threatening slur

In a prepared statement, Chambliss also spoke of the immediate “removal” of a staff member – who was not identified.
The wording is important. We’re picking up that the staffer was a military liaison assigned by the Pentagon — a fact that Chambliss’ office would not confirm.

Gays just believe a lie. They are no different than any one who is not perfect. No one is perfect. But their boldness of their sin is wrong.

We are not to hate the gays. That is wrong too.
