Hey, remember this guy?


Turns out he wasn't even first to the party. This guy, Representative Mike Coffman (R-CO-06), came first:


KYLE CLARK: Congressman Coffman, how are you?

REP. COFFMAN: How are you doing? Good to see you.


KYLE CLARK: Good to see you. You're a tough man to find lately.


REP. COFFMAN: I am.


KYLE CLARK: Can we chat quickly before you go inside?


REP. COFFMAN: Sure.


KYLE CLARK: Alright, fantastic. Why don't we head right over here so we're out of the way. Thank you for your time. I apologize for showing up unannounced. I've been trying to call your staff. They won't return my phone calls. Let me ask you, after your comments about the President, do you feel voters are owed a better explanation than just, I misspoke?


REP. COFFMAN: I think that... Umm... I stand by my statement that I misspoke and I apologize.


KYLE CLARK: OK. And who were you apologizing to?


REP. COFFMAN: You know, I stand by my statement that I misspoke and I apologize.


KYLE CLARK: I apologize, we talk to you all the time, you're a very forthcoming guy. Who's telling you not to talk and to handle it like this?


REP. COFFMAN: I stand by my statement, that I wrote, that you have, and I misspoke and I apologize.


KYLE CLARK: Was it that you thought it would go over well in Elbert County where folks are very conservative and you'd never say something like that in the suburbs?


REP. COFFMAN: I stand by my statement that I misspoke and I apologize.


KYLE CLARK: Is there anything I can ask you that you'll answer differently?


REP. COFFMAN: You know, I stand by my statement that I misspoke and I apologize.


KYLE CLARK: Thank you, congressman.


REP. COFFMAN: Thank you.



Clearly, he stands by his statement that he misspoke and he apologizes.

    I love it (in the darkest way possible) when stuff like this happens. Sure beats the hell out of having to actually think up a proper response!

    Wow, it's like reading a bad IF parser. "You can't get ye straightforward answer."
