This one I'd love to hear

The national media ignored this, since they mostly agree with Rangel's sentiment, but it was heavily reported in Mississippi.  Shortly after Hurricane Katrina, Rangel was quoted as saying "Mississippi gets more than their fair share back in federal money, but who the hell wants to live in Mississippi?"  He didn't apologize, and no one outside of Mississippi cared that he said that.  But every Mississippian, from the far right to the far left despises him.

Pickering correctly demanded an apology, but he wrongly attributed to liberal/Democrat's bigotry toward Mississippi, when it's actually all Northerners.

Sounds like a legit question to me.

You're going back on ignore, ass.

Maybe he was only talking about the Delta?

an area populated mostly by Rangel's race, and not affected by Katrina.

And even if he was, it is completely unacceptable for a Congressman to insult another state like that.  It's (correctly) not ok for people to insult other races, genders, orientations, etc., but it is completely acceptable in most people's eyes to put down Southerners as stupid/ignorant/etc. and that really pisses me off.
