On Monday Oct. 21st, US Republican
Senator Ted Cruz told a rally that Nigerian email scammers have been hired to
run the Obamacare website, and of course you trust Nigerians that they don’t
take insults with open arms, so after a series of calls from a few Nigerians
Senator Ted decided to apologize for what he said.
This is the new statement he made:
It’s unfortunate that we’re
living in a time where just about every joke can be misconstrued to cause
offense to someone.
To
the good people of Nigeria - a beautiful nation where my wife lived briefly as
the child of missionaries - no offense was intended.
I
am fully appreciative of the range of mutual economic and security interests
that make Nigeria an important friend to the United States.
And
even to those few unscrupulous email scammers who were the subject of the joke,
I apologize to you for the unfair comparison to the utterly dysfunctional
Obamacare website.
