Slip-Of-The-Lip!! CNN News Host Rick Sanchez Refers To President Obama As ''The Cotton Picking President'' Live On Air
VIDEO INSIDE
Oops! During a discussion with CNN cohort Jessica Yellin regarding recent controversies surrounding President Obama and his religious faith, Rick Sanchez used an old fashioned (and some might add racist) phrase that he immediately regretted, exasperating “he’s the cotton picking President!”
Shortly after he made that comment CNN went to commercial, and immediately upon coming back from the break Sanchez offered a thoughtful apology and clarification regarding his very poor choice of words.
According to Phrase Finder, “the term ‘cotton-picking’ originated in the southern states of the USA, where it is usually pronounced cotton-pickin’” Newsweek Senior Editor Julia Reed came under criticism for making a similar comment while guesting on CNN’s AC 360 when she said that President Obama was “out of his cotton picking mind.” mediaite.com

Whatever mother f*****, you was being racist! You said what was on your mind. You and your f***** ass friends get together and crack jokes like "cotton picking" to refer to slavery you f****** c***! Aint no f*****' other way around it you f*****' hater! OUR PRESIDENT IS BLACK! HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OBAMA! We got this. Oh, and he is doing a helluva job, I shall say. Cleaning up America and putting everything in perspective as we do best. Black Americans always have eveything under control; we do not fold under pressure. That is a know fact. P.S. I love 50 Cent (call me!)

At first I was a little specticle of 50 Cent signing these artist to his label I thought he would lose all his credit or what he had left of being a street dude, but one thing you have to remeber is G-note is a club/techno/dance label so on that…

Ok, I see what you sayin. Sounds like the production is the key, and the rapper just rides the s*** wit a simple catchy lil' hook. Thanks for the feedback cause I just can't keep up bro.
