Racist? Wilson? No. Hank Johnson? Perhaps - he's local in the Atlanta area, but I don't really know alot about him aside from this.
Hank Johnson represents the 4th Congressional District, which is the same district in the Metro Atlanta area who also elected the complete wack-job named Cynthia McKinney. Some would suggest that the racial makeup of this particular district may encourage it's representative to play the race card more often than he or she should in order to get re-elected. I suspect this statement from him may be at least in part targeted at his local constituents. -Cameron On Tue, Sep 15, 2009 at 2:57 PM, Scott Stroz <[email protected]> wrote: > > http://snurl.com/rvo9u > > --------------------------------------------------------- > > 'In an obvious reference to the Ku Klux Klan, Rep.
