"He said I know this is going to be lead to some, quote, difficulty for the guys who work on those rigs.
Well, if he thinks that some guys on the rigs are the only people that are going to be affected by a six-month oil moratorium, hes out of his cotton-picking mind."

When you're a racist, like those on the left, you'll see EVERYTHING through the prism of race, and see racism in EVERYTHING that people you disagree with say (and conveniently ignore it in people you agree with).

When it comes to criticizing their own for racism, the Left is quite niggardly.

Riddle! What’s black, slick and out of control?

Some guys actually were charged with a hate crime for spreading cotton balls on the lawn of some “perpetually aggrieved” student center.

Ya know... it didnt occur to me at first that cotton pickin is inherently racist, its used as a minor epithet so much that it has lost its underlying meaning.Seeing as how my white grandmother and white grandfather both picked cotton, I'd say race ain't got nuthin' to do with it. Scrooo 'em.

Obama has no idea how easy it is to cripple a local economy - like the gulf states region ... he’ll know soon.

“Are you out of your cotton pickin’ mind?”
Childhood memories come flooding back, ususally involving us needing to get dad to rescue us from some crazy situation we got ourselves into.

“There will be some left wing outrage, once they get the green light that Newsweeks Julia Reed is a Republican from New Orleans and not a liberal Democrat just because she once lived in NYC and was editor of Vogue.”
Dude are you serious, Julia Reed was a regular guest on Al Franken’s AirAmerica radio show, and has substituted for Rachael Maddow on MSNBC in the past. She is hardly a conservative or a Republican.
To: MrB
You have your terms a little mixed up.
...the term 'cotton-picking' originated in the southern states of the USA, where it is usually pronounced cotton-pickin'. It began life in the late 1700s and differs from the 19th century Dixie term, 'cottonpicker', in that the latter was derogatory and racist, whereas 'cotton-picking' referred directly to the difficulty and harshness of gathering the crop.

Julia Reed is reasonable for a Vogue editor writer and has some southern charm but she is a liberal by FR standards.
She is actually from Greenville Mississippi...a handsome woman
