Harshbarger is simply saying what we all know they're thinking. The mask slipped a little and she said it out loud. But I'm not surprised in the least. I know where she's from. I've lived in Tennessee's 1st congressional district. Many of her constituents think the same about people of color. And they have the gall to say American doesn't have a racism problem. Are you kidding me? I use to live among them. Of course they're racist!
