Dem Rep Frederica Wilson: Gen. Kelly Calling Me “Empty Barrel” is “Racist”
FinkelBlog ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Of course it’s racist. Everything is . . .

In his remarks on President Trump’s condolence phone call to the wife of a fallen US soldier, Chief of Staff John Kelly, alluding to Rep. Frederica Wilson, spoke of “a long tradition of empty barrels making the most noise.”

Appearing on CNN this morning, Wilson said:

“I think that’s a racist term, too."

You have to imagine this district....continually re-electing her. It’s probably a district designed by the GOP in Florida to get the most dimwits in a particular district, and allow them to vote one of their own into the House.

All of a sudden she is becoming aware she just schnit in her own mess-kit and the only way they know is to fall back on their phony chip crutch.

It never dawned on her to stop digging that hole with a backhoe.

We couldn’t ask for a better poster child for the lunatic left than the Mad Hatter.

Most people will take Trump over this rodeo clown any day.

Thank God she’s not from Texas. We are cursed with Sheila Jackson Lee, but even she has enough sense not to get into a situation like this misfit got into.

What a contrast compared to Col. Allen West. Florida how could you elect her?

So empty barrels are racist now?

Better keep that shotgun loaded and that whiskey barrel full, or you're a racist.

If that St. Bernard in the Alps is carrying an empty whiskey barrel, it's a racist, and it must be put down before it goes all Cujo on Black people!

Combined PING! and DANG!

Hey Freddie, you might want to consult with Corrine Brown. The exam is coming . . . .

A black person wearing fake cowboy hats is cultural appropriation.

OMG, Kelly used the "a" word, the "of" word and the "the" word! How insensitive... and racist of him.

And if he called her a beautiful women.
He would be sexist.

Although, if he did call her beautiful...I would say he needs his eyes checked.

Lady, you are the very definition of dumbass.

That’s dumb, as in stupid, vapid, without a mind.
And ass, as in the Obamahole that exists in your lower regions.

Love it, live it, dumbass.

You soooooo belong as a democrat congresscritter.

And take your faded, rotton racism card and cram it up you know where.

Rep. Wilson’s irritability, depression, and memory loss
might be consistent erethism.

Somewhere in the U.S., a flamboyantly gay cowboy is missing his hats.
