Well, he didn't say "Mistakes were made" or "I'm sorry if anyone was offended." But what the chairman of the Kalamazoo County, Michigan, Republican Party did say was just as bad:
"While I'm certain the Republican Party never sought to include Fisher's mother in this campaign, it is quite clear that Fisher will lie about and use his mother to further his own political future at every turn."
We cats kid you not. This GOP jackass couldn't just call distributing a flyer with Democratic candidate John Fisher's mother's hospice phone number on it "a boneheaded a mistake" — and leave it alone. No, he had to follow up with an attack on the man, and the mom, he had wronged.
But this is what Republicans do, isn't it? We sure hope John Fisher calls them out on this, because goodness knows the media won't.
In the meantime, if you'd like to express your displeasure at bad Republican behavior in a concrete, substantive way, you can contribute to John Fisher's campaign here.
