Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson (R) said on Sunday that House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) should condemn Rep. Lauren Boebert’s (R-Colo.) anti-Muslim remarks.
“I do. I think whenever, even in our own caucus, our own members, if they go the wrong direction, I mean, it has to be called out. It has to be dealt with, particularly whenever it is breaching the civility, whenever it is crossing the line in terms of violence or increasing the divide in our country,” Hutchinson told host Dana Bash on CNN's "State of the Union" after she played a clip of Boebert's comments.
“So, one of the things that's really important to us in the future is increasing the civil debate and civil discourse. And we have got to look for ways that we can bring people together, and not divide, and certainly along racial lines,” Hutchinson added.
A video surfaced over the Thanksgiving holiday break showing Boebert telling an audience that she and fellow Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) were on an elevator as a Capitol Police officer ran toward it.
"I look to my left, and there she is. Ilhan Omar. I said, ‘Well she doesn't have a backpack, we should be fine,’ ” Boebert told the audience.
Omar says the incident never happened.

She needs to apologize when Omar apologizes for inciting violence against Israel.
Hark..... it that another RINO I hear rattling around?
They should apologize for allowing Muslims to enter into our country in the first place
And goes on CNN to do it
What a disappointment Hutchinson has become
I held out hope that Asa was for real way back when.. Oh vell.
Was the joke in poor taste? Some might think so. Me? No.
Is there an element of truth to it? Yes. That's what makes for a good joke/dig.
If the offended want people to stop making jokes like that, perhaps they should be more concerned with why people associate Muslims with suicide bombers. It isn't because of the jokes. The jokes are a result, not the cause.
After the Vietnam war ended, someone asked, who would we have the next war with. I thought and said....moslems. I don’t know why but I had a bad feeling about them.
After seeing them in action for the last forty years, it important to keep an eye on them today.
Is that a suicide vest? a gun, a knife under all those robes?
It is called personal survival skills.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Hadn’t heard that one,
Stick it where it hurts, Moooose—taffa!
From Bob Jones University to this? Asa Hutchinson.
I guess I’ll try to keep my own act clean and not let anger get the best of me.
Exactly!
There’s a reason they were kept out for over a century...
“civil debate and civil discourse”
FU, you backstabbing bucket of dog crap. I got your “civil” right here, pussy boy.
Another perfumed fop!
Lauren Boebert should affirm her remarks about terrorist supporting America hating Omar and ignore RINOs like Asa Hutchinson.
Rinos are always toughest on their own
Hutchinson can KMA if he defends Omar or any other Muslim filth.
We live in a time where you can go anywhere - even national television - and use the Lord's name in vain and few will blink an eye.
But if you milk a sacred cow - watch out!
And no herd is more sacred than one of crossbreeds - BLT's and those denying the one, true, living God.
The GOPe scum have the raghead’s back...
Lately Hutchinson has become unlikeable. If he always was that way, I didn’t know it.
Glad his term is almost over.
