Source: Rachel Slajda, "The Other Racist Thing Rep. King Said About Pigford (VIDEO)." TPM Muckracker: December 2, 2010. The racist thing: "The fraudulent claims might be, well Johnny, yeah he was raised on a farm but he wouldn't help his dad. He went to the city, became a drug addict, and when Daddy needed the help, Johnny wouldn't come and help his daddy. But now his daddy's died and Johnny wants the $50,000 that comes from the USDA under this claim."

7. Ha.

Been there, done that. Used to work for a guy in Omaha who would rank King as a national treasure.

Living around here is frustrating to say the least.
