Ryan Winkler @RepRyanWinkler

@atrupar I did not understand “Uncle Tom” as a racist term, and there seems to be some debate about it. I do apologize for it, however.

The racist creep is backpedaling big time. He's also denying he knew that was a racist term. My 12-year-old nephew is visiting, I asked him and he said he knew that was a racist term. Winkler is either a liar, incredibly stupid or both. Probably both.

Sounds like Minnesota (where this weasel is from) needs to be one of the states under special oversight, given the racism of its elected officials.

This attempt to deny that he know Uncle Tom was a racist term is 100X more damaging than the original post - liberals are expected to trash Thomas in racial terms.

But this guy has a BA, History, Harvard College, 1998. And he can tweet that he is incredulous to find out Uncle Tom was a racist term?

That should be the end of his public career. But of course it won’t be.

The Congressional Black Caucus, Je$$e Jackson and Al Charlatan have all called for a joint presser to publicly condemn Winkler’s racist remarks. /s

Paula Dean used better language and lost her job.

There you have it, folks. Yet another example of Minnesota Nice from the DFL. To think I spent ten years in that cesspool.
