Rick Sanchez Makes Lame Apology for Calling Obama "Cotton Picking President"

If Rick Sanchez were a conservative, he would mostly likely be forced to resign. Of course, there aren't any conservatives left at CNN.

Partial transcript via NewsBusters:

In the middle of that conversation, at one point, I said, why can't the president of the United States seem to figure this out? After all, he is the cotton-picking president of the United States. Well, soon after I said that, I started getting some Tweets from some of you, saying, you just said 'cotton-picking president of the United States' about the first black president of the United States? Without even realizing it?

I've was just saying 'cotton picking' because it's a term that I've used because I grew up in the South. It's a point that's often used to illustrate frustration- not in any way shown to use- used to show any kind of disrespect. However, I apologize nonetheless for using it, in case it was taken by anyone as an act of disrespect. So, there you go.

CNN Host Rick Sanchez: 'States Rights' Is a 'Racist Term'

Our Constitution was very carefully crafted to protect states rights from an overpowering federal government. States rights were specifically reinforced by the Tenth Amendment (Amendment X) of the United States Constitution which is part of the Bill of Rights. The amendment states:

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

Rick Sanchez considers our Constitution and Bill of Rights to be racist.

CNN's Sanchez: "States' Rights" Is "A Racist Term"

CNN anchor Rick Sanchez calls Glenn Beck “pudgy-faced.”

CNN anchor Rick Sanchez brazenly implied FOX News is not a "real news organization." He also insulted Glenn Beck by calling him “pudgy-faced.” When Sanchez said real news organizations should not stage, promote or hype news events, I mistakenly thought he was referring to CNN. Sanchez is so busy looking for bias at FOX News, he can't see the bias at his own network.

From NewsBusters:

CNN anchor Rick Sanchez again attacked Fox News on Monday’s Newsroom, implying the channel wasn’t a “real news organization,” and bizarrely labeled Glenn Beck “pudgy-faced.” Unsurprisingly, Sanchez continued his silence concerning his own network’s left-wing bias.
