Today.

In debate on the senate floor tonight, one of the senators made an offensive comment. He took immediate action to address the issue and made a public apology. You can view that exchange here. The offending comment is here, one hour, six minutes and eight seconds into the debate.

Anyone can seem fine when they are scripted and thinking critically about what they say. It's always the "off the cuff" comments that show a person's real character.

In the case of Chris Buttars unscripted comments have always shown hate, racism and bigotry. So this is no suprise

Yeah really. How can Buttars claim to have the moral high ground on all the bills he runs and then use such offensive language? Hypocritical. It does indeed show a lot about the man.
