^^^dumbest post ive ever read. im going to bed.

how is it dumb? The popular history of the etymology for the word is wrong

Folk etymology
There is also an apocryphal belief that the term dates back to slavery in the antebellum South. The popular folk etymology is based on slaver foremen using bullwhips to discipline African and African American slaves, and the sound of the whip being described as 'cracking the whip'. The foremen who cracked these whips are believed to have been known as 'crackers'. [1][2][3] (wikipedia)

so shut the fuck up stupid ass cracka.

al franken is an extremist and an idiot. comedy is comedy, politics is politics. the man has gotten so serious he forgot about making people laugh instead shoving views in their face.
