Sen. Arlen Specter (D-PA) called Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) yesterday, to apologize for telling her during a heated discussion on a radio program to “act like a lady.”
“He called her last night on her cell phone, he apologized for his comments, and she accepted,” Bachmann spokesman Dave Dziok told MinnPost.
During an interview last week in Washington, hosted by a Philadelphia radio show, Specter and Bachmann had gotten into an argument, during which Specter became frustrated at Bachmann interrupting him. “Now wait a minute, I’ll stop and you can talk,” Specter said, also telling her: “I’ll treat you like a lady, so act like one.”
