MSNBC: Texas Congressman Randy Neugebauer confirms he yelled out “Baby killer” at Bart Stupak last night.

UPDATE, via an e-mail alert from WaPo:

Rep. Randy Neugebauer (R-Tex.) admits shouting ‘baby killer’ during House debate over health care.

In a statement, Neugebauer says he was not referring to Rep. Bart Stupak, but instead, “I exclaimed the phrase ‘it’s a baby killer’ in reference to the agreement reached by the Democratic leadership.”

Nice try, but that was one weak attempt at a save. You blew it. We have a loser.

UPDATE #2:

“While I remain heartbroken over the passage of this bill and the tragic consequences it will have for the unborn, I deeply regret that my actions were mistakenly interpreted as a direct reference to Congressman Stupak himself.”

Neugebauer said he apologized to Stupak for the outburst.

“I have apologized to Mr. Stupak and also apologize to my colleagues for the manner in which I expressed my disappointment about the bill. The House Chamber is a place of decorum and respect. The timing and tone of my comment last night was inappropriate,” he said.

Another non-apology. Everyone got it wrong. Poor Neugebauer is misunderstood. We should be apologizing to him for the Big Misunderstanding in which we interpreted his appalling outburst as “You are Bart the Baby Killer!”

You lie!

Oh my. I deeply regret that my outburst might be mistakenly misinterpreted by you.

How mature, respectful, and orderly.

Whoever did that needs to be kicked out… and spat upon repeatedly.

UPDATE:

Rep. John Campbell (R-Calif.) acknowledged late Sunday night that a Republican yelled “baby killer” as Democratic Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.) urged his fellow Democrats to vote down a Republican amendment on abortion services in the health-care legislation. [...]

Rep. Joe Barton (R-Texas) said he heard the remark and said it did come from in the area of where the Texas and California delegations sit. He said he believes he knows who yelled it, but declined to say anymore.
