Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen retweed an expletive message from a Kim Jong-un parody account.

Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, the Florida Republican who retweeted an expletive-filled message, did so on purpose, her office confirmed Wednesday.

When the posting ?SH*T JUST GOT REAL PANAMA? from the Kim Jong-un parody account @KimJongNumberUn, appeared on her Twitter timeline Tuesday - many assumed a wayward intern was to blame.

But her office denied the notion, insisting the politician from Miami retweeted the message herself and made no apologies for doing so.

The original tweet came after a North Korean ship laden with weapons from Cuba was seized near the Panama Canal.

Ros-Lehtinen was born in Cuba and takes an active role in calling for change in the Communist country - even calling for Fidel Castro?s assassination.

?She does know its an impostor? account, her spokesman Alex Jones added in comment to the Daily News, regarding the Twitter account that parodies the North Korean leader.

The 62-year-old is an avid Twitter user and strikes a playful tone on her account, @RosLehtinen.

Wednesday she posted a pic of herself in seersucker, in honor of the Hill?s summer nod to the cool fabric.

?#SeersuckerWednesday,? she announced, in a caption for a photo of her pant leg and shoes decked out in the design.

?The shoes are a bit over the top, si? Dex says: 2 much Matlock,? she joked, in reference to her husband Dexter?s fashion advice.

Kim Jong-un didn?t respond to her request for fashion advice.
