Before tweeting, one must show rigor, or else hearty guffaws one may trigger.
Dan Pfeiffer is among the many people who get paid, with your tax dollars, to lie for the White House. Twitter is one of the places Pfeiffer tells those lies. But this morning, courtesy of New York magazine, he used it to show us the truth about himself.
WARNING: BAD WORD AHEAD
Oh, my.
Pfeiffer deleted it a few minutes later, changed his pants, and then followed up with this:
Obviously a horrendous typo in my previous tweet. My apologies

Go figure.
I think we all know what happened here: Dan Pfeiffer is a huge racist, and for a brief moment he let the mask pointy white hood slip.
Just kidding, of course. It’s not like he’s a Republican! Therefore, we must give him the benefit of the doubt that he meant to type “bigger.” He was just lying about his political opponents, not being a racist.
Sure.
Have fun looking your boss in the eye, Dan.
Update: Twitchy collects some of the reaction.

Better explanation: @Pfeiffer44 meant to write “bigger” but because he uses the n-word so much, his phone auto-corrected to the n-word.

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
