Buzz Feed ^ | June 5, 2014 | Evan McMorris-Santoro

WASHINGTON — An official at the department of Housing And Urban Development whose criticized tweets suggesting that there could be questions about the military records of former platoon mates of Bowe Bergdahl apologized Thursday to service members and the Obama administration.

“While I just wanted to make the point that the public should wait before passing judgment, I unfortunately used my own poor judgment in choosing inappropriate language that many view as disparaging to U.S. service members,” said Brandon Friedman, deputy assistant secretary of public affairs at HUD. “That was certainly not my intent and I regret making the comments on my personal account in such a way. I apologize to those with whom I work in the Administration, at HUD, and, most importantly, to any service members who took offense.”

“what the hell does HUD have to do with any of this ?”

Nothing, just a political sycophant Obama appointee. They pack them in where ever they can. This POS sharpened his resume by writing a book bad mouthing the Military based on his so called service. The book was nothing more than a wink and a nod that he wanted a Gubermint job in Obama’s Marxist Administration, and would walk and talk the Susan Rice line.

He should resign. Immediately. He is not fit to serve the public.

He needs to be given the Donald Sterling treatment. Obviously a bigot who harbors hatred in his mind for brave soldiers.

(Can someone ‘splain to me how liberals can spew garbage publicly and never lose face...Alec Baldwin, Tracy Morgan, any given NBA player with “anti-gay slurs” during games, every misogynistic rapper on the planet, this Obama bootlicker.....but some stupid old whoremongering billionaire lets off his mouth in a PRIVATE CONVERSATION and he is stripped of his property? Absolutely fascist.)

I just saw the hero of Benghazi’s clip where he stumbled on the “bad health” line.

Has Brandon Richard Cranium Friedman tendered his resignation yet? I don't care if he apologized. He needs to be called to the hearings when they happen, and explain whether he came up with 'psychopath' himself or was given talking points by a higher-up...

Yes but you did. However, he has apologized so that should make it all better. These dipspits think saying I’m sorry fixes everything.

Yes but ONLY if the hostage is a noxious sack of crap that probably ought to be stood up against a wall with a cigarette and a blindfold. If the hostage is someone that should be free, then no.
