Under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy Richard Stengel gave a peculiar apology to outraged Twitter users on Sunday after he tweeted #UnitedForGaza to his 15,000 followers. In a tweet directed to the State Department, Mr. Stengel said, Critical for a full, credible and unimpeded intl investigation of crash. Urge Russia to honor its [sic] commitment, Twitchy first reported. After receiving swift backlash, the tweet was deleted, and Mr. Stengel sent out a terse explanation. Earlier tweet with wrong hashtag was a mistake. My bad, he said. (Snip) Twitter users werent buying Mr. Stengels apology.

And it made no sense with what he was saying. So he must have been up to something else.
Cripes I’m sick of these people and I can’t believe we’ve got another 2 yrs + to go with them.
I mean they are imbeciles. That Jen Psaki should be cleaning bathrooms in a Walmart or something, but no, she’s out and about probably making $150K and “representing” our nation.

#MyBad should be the main hashtag for this entire regime.

Once again, when the hypocritical PC crowd apologizes, all is forgiven and forgotten. No one loses friends, business contacts, money, or property.
Fascism is alive and well.

The Obama administration is the answer to the question the entire world has been asking:
“What if the USA government fell into the hands of a gang of freedom hating, arrogant, inept fools?”

If his tweet had said: #UnitedforTraditionalMarriage he would be unemployed this evening.
To: Nachum
An immediate firing would be carried out by a worthy administration.
