Republican Congressional candidate from Kansas Mike Pompeo has apologised to his Democratic opponent Raj Goyle for recommending a 'tremendously offensive' blog post that immediately outraged many of his supporters, including the strong Indian-American community.
In an effort to contain the damage, Pompe personally called Goyle today to apologise while his campaign said "this was a mistake".
"Just like his evil muslim communist USURPER comrad [sic], barrack hussein obama, This goyle character is just another 'turban topper' we don't need in congress or any political office that deals with the US Constitution, Christianity and the United States of America!!!" the blog, which was recommended by Pompe in a tweet to his followers, had said.
"The statements of the blogger in no way reflect my views. There is no place in campaigns or in public discourse for language of this nature. I have placed a personal call of apology and spoken to Rep Goyle directly expressing our campaign's regret for the error," said Pompeo
