Obama/KKK Link is Bullsh*t!

Klan Director Angrily Responds to Article Flooding the Internet

About a month ago, I received a rather disturbing email from a dear friend of mine. Embedded in the email was an "article" claiming that Kentucky's Imperial Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, Ronald Edwards, had endorsed Barack Obama. I'm sure many of you may have received the same email, especially if you're part of the black community. Strangely enough, the article seems to be flooding the email boxes of blacks and whites all across the country. The article cites Edwards' reason for the alleged support as an effort to thwart Hillary Clinton's bid for the White House. I'm paraphrasing here, but according to Edwards, "Anyone is better than having that crazy-ass bitch in the White House." The article goes on to note that Edwards had donated $250,000 to Obama's campaign, which really made me sit up and take notice. If Obama did in fact take a contribution from the Klan, it deserved media attention and a column from The G-man.

The Internet chatter over this article began to spread like wildfire. Even noted radio talk-show hosts, both black and white, gave significant air-time to it. While everyone was busy trying to figure out what the hell was going on, The G-man went to work by directly contacting Edwards, via email, to confirm the story. I was very interested in hearing what the Imperial Wizard had to say, especially given the fact that I just obtain comments from his boss, the Klan's National Director Pastor Thomas Robb, who vehemently stated that the KKK would never support a black man for president. To date, Edwards has not responded and is not likely to. It could be a "black thing". Who the hell knows?
