Chicago's nut-roots

"See, Barack's been talking down to black people on this faith-based—I want to cut his nuts out."

That's what the Reverend Jesse Jackson said about Barack Obama during on Sunday.

And now, let's go back one year, for a comment by Cook County Commissioner William Beavers, a political rival of the Jackson clan:

"I'm the hog with the big nuts and I'm gonna tell you what it is."

Nuts: It's a Chicago thing.
