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."

It has not racial connotation at all and drives much deeper to their so-called souls.

That's funny. You said soul. You think that thing considers its soul?

She’s just saying: “If the barrel fits, you must acquit!” Someone ought to have a bonfire and burn all of her hats!

Nope but the implication is that being called something they have no answer for may start the process to maybe have them consider it.

“As we say in Texas...all hat and no cattle!”

In her case, that’s offensive to both hats AND cattle!

During the Zimmerman trial this woman along with POTUS Obama played a significant role by spouting off inflamatory racial remarks that resulted in racial attacks by mainly black criminal gangs of non black; hispanic, white and asians who were innocently passing though areas they controlled. which ended in deaths or lifetime injuries. What is worse is while this was occuring neither said anything thing to denounce this activity.

She should be held responsible as a contributer to wrongfull deaths legal action by families of the survivors of those assaults.

That's a little bit like saying that The Fuhrer wasn't a good dancer.

Yes, but by all accounts he had a lovely singing voice.

And assless chaps.

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

Yes, unfortunately you can, because there's still our CA loon, Maxine Waters, and her “brother” Cong. Hank “Guam is Capsizing” Johnson. The really funny thing is that these morons “constituents” think they are Mensas.

Off topic, but that reminds me of Monty Python’s “I’m a Lumberjack and I’m OK”

This is actually perfect, and exactly what I expected her to do. When called on her bull$h-t, she falls back on the only gun in her arsenal: false charges of RACISM!

Not only does it vindicate President Trump and General Kelly, but it exposes her as the hateful goon that she is, and embarrasses the media that carried her water.

President Trump made that phone call as an act of compassion, decorum, and humility. She and her fellow black racist official from Miami should be ashamed of themselves. Gen Kelly also slammed her for inappropriate behavior and remarks at the memorial service for slain law enforcement officers in 2015. She could not handle being exposed for what she is - an ugly, lying harpy.

Ol’ Frederica in assless chaps makes for a disturbing mental image.

“Ol’ Frederica in assless chaps makes for a disturbing mental image.”

Particularly if you are into government mules!

“This looney tune was an elementary school principal...how terrifying.”

With such distiuished blacks as Thomas Sowell and Walter Williams floating around why on earth would they put forth Far Side cartoon characters like Maxine and Fredericky?
