File this one under perhaps the most hilarious (and tragic) thing we have seen this week. Or this month. Or ever. As azcentral.com reports, it wasn’t a good day for state representative and Republican congressional candidate Adam Kwasman. Watch.
You can read the whole story here. Amazingly funny. And sad.
By the way, Rep. Kwasman: the Internet is forever.
And you have to love the backtracking. Oops.
Last tweet not the bus of illegal immigrant children. Thank God.

I apologize for the confusion. That was my error

Before he got caught for his error, Kwasman seemed REALLY SURE that that bus had migrant kids: “Bus coming in. This is not compassion. This is the abrogation of the rule of law.”
Because it was just “a simple mistake.”
@brahmresnik I made a simple mistake, and I take full responsibility for my error.

If Kwasman were serious about taking “full responsibility,” he would act and not just tweet about it. But we know he won’t. Soon enough, he will say it was all taken “out of context.”
Yeah, there’s no paranoia or racism here. None at all. In the end Kwasman’s actions are nothing to just laugh about, but still, tell us you didn’t think of this when Kwasman heard that the bus was approaching?
Hell, let’s play the report again. Just cause.
We should bombard his twitter page with messages. He needs to educate himself on the issue before taking such a hate-filled stance.

Don’t blame him. Blame the yahoos that elected this idiot.
