Sid Miller under fire for tweet calling Clinton the 'C-word'

AUSTIN – Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller first blamed a hacker and then a staffer before deleting a tweet that used a vulgar term for Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton Tuesday, igniting a social media firestorm of condemnation from all political corners, including a rebuke from Gov. Greg Abbott.

I should hope so!

Such a chicken sh*t that he had to make up another lie saying that his Twitter account had been hacked.

He should be proud for being such a jack ass!

First, they thought they were hacked .


Then a few minutes later, Loeffler admited that they weren’t hacked. He now blames it on a staff member.

An official statement from Miller’s office has no mention of hacking and says “the campaign was retweeting information on Twitter today and inadvertently retweeted a tweet that they were not aware contained a derogatory term.”

Yeah, he means “hacked” and “inadvertently retweeted” as in so drunk that he has to hold on to the grass to lean against the ground.

“We dealt with it. It was a simple mistake, an oversight,” Miller said. “It should have never happened.

I think he should have gone with drunk. You can fix drunk.
