Alan Grayson's "K Street Whore" Apology Is So Much Funnier Than The Actual Insult
Yesterday the websites were very upset with Alan Grayson for calling some some Bernanke staffer a "K Street Whore." Because yeah yeah, he's a loose cannon and it's like soo crazy or whatever, but "whore"? Well apparently it's a term that's often "correctly" viewed as offensive to women, he... deadpans? "I offer my sincere apology. I did not intend to use a term that is often, and correctly, seen as disrespectful of women."
Then Anthony Weiner was forced to apologize to Grayson for calling him "one fry short of a Happy Meal":
"Alan Grayson is a friend and an extraordinary member of Congress. No obviously playful comment from me should distract from the important role Rep. Grayson has played in focusing on the true and tragic costs of our broken health care system. He is a leader and a patriot."
"French fries" is a term that is often, and correctly, seen as disrespectful to Alan Grayson.
