Dude if my parents were that connected I'd settle for a little less mom time growing up. Her hard work paid off and her kids are able to do whatever they want. Isn't that what most parents want for their kids? I mean I'd say Wendy Davis hit the mom jackpot.

I am shocked that a former law enforcement agent would have no control over his violent outbursts and think of himself as above everyone else. Shocked, I say.

Now that's a thug.

Scroll down to where he terrifyingly says, "All the white people: get out of here." http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2011…

When will people learn you can't fucking act like this? His fucking apology - he has NO CONCEPT of how you just cannot act like that. It doesn't matter how annoyed you were. You can't.

Can we talk more about some of his prior claims to fame, i.e. the bathroom sex at the bar, the FBI agent career and/or the crooked rabbi's financial contributions? Because I think that stuff is about 1000x more interesting than this incident and his life is begging for an in-depth expose.

This is how an apology sounds:

Seriously. If he didn't want to answer the question, it wouldn't have killed him to say something along the lines of 'I'm sorry, but I do not wish to discuss that matter at this time'. No need for him to make an ass of himself.

In the time he took to take that reporter "to task" he could have just answered the question. Of course we know he wasn't upset about being in a rush.

Not only professionalism... but respect. Like not threatening someone when they ask you a question you dont like.

How utterly awful that elected public official be forced to respond to a question they didnt agree to before-hand. Its almost like the reporter thinks they are part of a free press. Madness. Especially after that elected public official did them the favor of talking to the press!

He "did not have time to speak off-topic" but DID have time to walk away and then come back TWICE to fight with the reporter. So does this mean that time somehow magically expands when one needs to threaten and intimidate the press?

"I expect a certain level of professionalism and respect..."

"I was being nice and doing this interview. But I was too busy to answer another question, so I left. Then I came back to yell at and physically threaten the journalist after I thought the camera was off. I came back to talk to the journalist because I was super busy and had other things to do than talk to the…

"I expect a certain level of professionalism and respect, especially when I go out of my way to do that reporter a favor."

Oh, he expects professionalism, does he? How nice.

I see the tweet... but apparently he couldn't fit said issued apology anywhere into the 140 characters.

Which is interesting, as I am fairly sure "I'm sorry for publicly taking a member of the press to task" is considerably shorter than that.

"Apology."
