He is also the one that:
1. Held a racialy exclusive gathering in a publicly owned facility to annoint someone "who looks like us" to get the current mayor elected.
2. On election night to get the "one who looks like us" elected, he left a party at the Peabody Hotel and went to the local election commission to berate and bully the commisioner into "letting him see the ballots" in a very tight contest. King Willie won by 142 votes that should have been contested. Outgoing mayr Richard Hackett bowed out gracefully, after receiving some death threats NOT to contest the votes.
3. Was in the top 5 in the House Banking Scandal. Ford, Sr. was #5 in total bad checks written but NUMERO UNO in total $$$ amounts kited.
4. Left Memphis and the mess he created to go live in Florida and become a lobbyist.

The only time he crawls out from under his rock is times like this. He is a master race baiter. Not quite in Je$$e's league but a very eager student of the game.

So now, white people can say "nigger" and when called on it, tell them you were complimenting the person by calling them a "tigger".

A "Cracker" describes the man who cracked the whip on slaves who weren't heeding their master's wishes and expectations. The "Cracker" was the direct punisher and torturer of the enslaved.

He said "Cracker". I heard it on Hannity. I can't believe Hannity capitulated so easily.

Who are you gonna believe me or your lying ears?

"What he meant to say was there were some Wisconsin football players nearby..."

Then it would be "badgers" which doesn't sound like "crackers" or "trackers".

Do we get to behead someone now?

Please read with a heavy Florida accent: Sorry sir, you are misstaken, my grandfather Hon. Frank A. Smith was Chief Curcuit Court Judge for most all of Florida. He and all his sons are most certainly "crackers" and whilst the yankees and Cubans may run Miami and Dade, Boward and a few others, the vastness of Florida, from, the pan handle, to Gainsville, to Ocala, to Kissimee and even the uppity society of Orlando, is still controlled by "crackers".

"(b) the man clearly says "trackers", not "crackers". Even the web site that hosts this video admits to it."

What's a tracker doing there?

This is like a little kid trying to say "no Dad I really said FUDGE!"

Black racism in action.

This is media bias in action. Republican George Allen calls some Indian-American guy "macaca" and the DNC and MSM searches dictionaries in every language from Albanian to Zulu to find out if they can turn it into a racial issue. Even an Indian-American activist said he didn't know what it meant, but he would make life difficult for Allen nonetheless.

Then Democrat Jim Webb mentions the slur "towel-heads" and they assume he didn't know that it was a reference to Arabs. Now, we have a Democrat saying "tracker" in reference to people protesting his son's candidacy, and we're supposed to swallow that without a spoonful of skepticism?

OK, I finally was able to listen to it. It does sound like "trackers."

Hey, at least our side admits when we're mistaken.

sorry it sounds like CRACKERS.

Yeah, I changed my mind. He said "crackers".

I was temporarily swayed by the message on the website. And the audio isn't super-clear, but after further review, clear enough to hold the "crackers" charge.

Do I get redemption for admitting my mistake?

I agree it was altered. I clearly heard it on the radio today and it was crackers
