Michael Kinsley famously said that a gaffe is when a politician tells the truth. Here’s the special interest version courtesy of David Kragnes, chairman of the American Crystal Sugar Company, who had a great Freudian slip during an interview with NPR’s Peter Overby:

OVERBY: [Kragnes] says sugar has a good story to tell and it’s important to keep telling it over and over.

KRAGNES: Then when farm bill time comes, hopefully you have made some relationships with the staff that have endured and then you explain to them once again why the provisions you put in — suggested to be put in any one bill are good for America.

Oops!
