In a campaign appearance on Tuesday, embattled Mississippi Sen. Thad Cochran (R) raised eyebrows with what appeared to be an off-color joke about his rural boyhood.
The Jackson Clarion-Ledger reported that Cochran was addressing a group of donors and supporters at Forrest General Hospital in Hattiesburg.
The senator explained his connection to the area, saying that his grandparents lived their whole lives in the area.
I grew up coming down here for Christmas, he said. My fathers family was here. My mothers family was from rural Hinds County in Utica.
It was fun, it was an adventure to be out there in the country and to see what goes on, he said of his boyhood visits to Hattiesburg. Picking up pecans, from that to all kinds of indecent things with animals.

I know I don't. But I have an idea what some ignorant, badly raised, sociopaths might do.

(21,925 posts)I guess he thinks some people will vote for him for saying that and maybe they will. Maybe that's how they have fun in some backwoods places. I honestly think someone in Mitch McConnell's distant family had sex with a tortoise.
