“It was a genuine slip of the tongue, ... I realized as I was starting to say puck that other sounds were coming out of my mouth, and I changed it to puck. And if you don't bleep out the middle part and play the whole thing, I think that's clear... It was an unfortunate slip of the tongue, and I am sorry for that. I tried my best to say it as they wanted me to say it, and it just came out.”
Tim Pawlenty
