re: #224 Sharmuta

I’ve been stunned by the number of people repeating this, and by whom.

But exactly what do you think that someone like Newt really means by it, when he says it? That Sotomayor wants to have a plantation with white men picking cotton in the hot sun? I really don’t think anyone believes that, not even a little bit.

It’s kind of Newt being gonzo, if we’re talking gonzo.

I guess the word is dangerous, there are some out there who here the word in public statements by a prominent speaker, and do interpret it as above, but heck, let’s not us make that mistake.
