A Bishop Apologises for Calling Biden “Stupid”
Monsignor Robert Gruss, Bishop of Saginaw, Michigan, apologised on Friday for calling abortion propagandist Joe Biden "stupid" during a recent talk (CatholicNewsAgency.com).
According to the language used in such cases, Gruss regretted that his comments were "taken out of context". He assured that he had spoken of "forgiveness" and not of holding grudges, including against pro-abortion Joe.
"I used the word 'stupid' in reference to President Biden and I recognise that it was a poor choice of words," Mgr Gruss said, "It was not meant to be disparaging and I apologise."
Linguists wonder how the word "stupid" can be used to describe a person without being "disparaging".
