Republican Kim Hendren, minority leader of the Arkansas state Senate, got mad the other day and called New York Senator Charles Schumer “that Jew” after Schumer told a TV interviewer that conservative Republicans are “hard right.”
Remarkably, Hendren attempted to explain away his gaffe by pointing out that he says a lot of stupid things.
“I don’t use a Teleprompter and occasionally I put my foot in my mouth,” he said.
Later, when asked to name a Jewish person he admires, he said, “ Jesus.” He also said he likes Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman.
“I ought not to have referred to it at all,” Hendren said. “When I referred to him as Jewish, it wasn’t because I don’t like Jewish people.”
Schumer didn’t want to get anywhere near this stupidity and simply said, “Apology accepted.”
In other news, Hendren called Hillary Clinton “that bitch.” He didn’t really. But he should have.
