From the atricle.....

"A day after Republican Sen. Orrin Hatch disparaged Obamacare supporters as the "stupidest, dumbass people" he has ever met for embracing the "stupidest, dumbass bill" he has ever seen, he issued a statement apologizing.

“Yesterday, I made a poorly worded joke about Obamacare supporters—a joke that was not reflective of my actual feelings towards my friends on the other side. Throughout my term of service, I have always recognized the importance of civility, particularly in engaging with those of different political perspectives. While I occasionally slip up, I believe that my legislative record reflects my commitment to bipartisanship and civility much more than my flippant, off-the-cuff comment," the statement read."

He also said it was sarcasm that failed to be recognized. Sure Orrin.

Will he have to "repent" to his bishop for saying "dumbass?"
Or does he get a pass because he's famous?

Repent to Bishop? Maybe.

Repent to Trump? Nope.

...’my actual feelings...’

WEIRDO.

LIAR.

And a bad liar at that. He is a fake-o with his fake feelings.

...’my actual feelings...’

Good point.

So when he says he "knows" the BOM is true, etc....what are his "actual" feelings?

Hatch is so nauseating !
He'll get a pass of course. :(

‘...poorly worded joke...’

Now insults are JOKES?

So, the only apology is for a badly phrased JOKE? No mention of ‘actual’ CONTENT?

He’s only joking, y’all. Hardy, har, har.

Kids, don’t listen to these adults, m’kay?

"Now insults are JOKES?"

Only when overwhelming public backlash calls you on your insult. Then, you can say it was a joke. See; Trump, Donald J. and Huckabee, Sarah Sanders.

Indeed. Limbaugh, Hannity, O'Reilly.

Or abusive spouse . . . "It was just a joke. What's the matter,
can't you take a little joke?"

After they expose their true selves they always fall back on the "I was joking" lie.
