White House senior adviser Dan Pfeiffer is well on his way to having a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day.

@jmartNYT also a much bleep factor on the right—

No need for the press to inquire into this. No need for Obama to take any action in regard to his employment. No need for the usually perennially outraged to make a fuss. Oh, heck no. He apologized.

Hey @pfeiffer44 how many times have you used the n-word so that "bigger" gets autocorrected to the term you use more often? HMMM??

Quote

So, @pfeiffer44 realized there was the n word on his feed and deleted it, like Gov Perry did his rock

Quote

I'll accept @pfeiffer44's apology just as soon as he accepts Perry's rock story. Until then, his tweet is obvious evidence of closet racism

You see, the Left has been telling us we're racist bc we're unconsciously racist. Isn't that what they'd say if Rush L made that typo?

Hi @pfeiffer44, please deal with your latent racism. Thanks.

So @pfeiffer44 is accidentally tweeting out the "N-word" huh? Funny thing about auto-correct is it only substitutes commonly used words.

Hey @pfeiffer44 I guess you'd call that a typing #glitch, huh?

Post by: Lando Lincoln on October 09, 2013, 12:27:18 pm: Next thing you know, the "B" will exiled far away from the "N" on the keyboard. They will no longer be allowed to be neighbors and we will all need to re-learn typing.

A classic typo and now he has to defend himself... At least it is mostly the left beating up on a lefty. But, we have larger things to worry about.

Post by: aligncare on October 09, 2013, 12:32:54 pm: Agreed. Gotcha is fun to play but wastes time and diverts attention from the important issues of the day.

Post by: DCPatriot on October 09, 2013, 12:33:01 pm: We all know that smart phones and tablets anticipate what word you're typing when texting, etc..

For the phone/tablet to select "Nigg*r", it had to have been saved on that phone....IOW....he purposely used that word previously.
