Obama Senior Advisor Accidentally Tweets N-Word

10/08/13


It's Dan Pfeiffer, who recently likened the GOP to 'people who have a bomb strapped to their chest'

White House senior adviser Dan Pfeiffer mistakenly tweeted out the “N-word” on Tuesday, quickly deleting the offending tweet and apologizing for the typo. “Obviously a horrendous typo in my previous tweet. My apologies,” Pfeiffer tweeted Tuesday morning.

Pfeiffer was replying to a tweet from New York Times reporter Jonathan Martin about an NBC News post discussing how a changing media has contributed to an increase in political polarization. Pfeiffer responded that it was a “very smart point and massive factor in political polarization,” then sent a second tweet that appeared to misplace an “n” where he intended a “b.”

He Apologizes. Would a Republican advisor simply be able to apologize and that would be the end of it? Imagine if this was Boehner's aide, what would be the reaction?
