Madison — State elections officials Wednesday narrowly rejected a Milwaukee Assembly candidate's attempt to run with the slogan "NOT the 'whiteman's bitch' " under her name on the ballot.One board member, Thomas Barland, insisted that there wasn't a problem, saying that he didn't "interpret it as racial." Not racial? Wow. There are days that I despair of this country ever getting past race--but increasingly, it's not Klansmen. It's black people like Ieshuh Griffin, intent on keeping racial hatred stirred up.
Ieshuh Griffin, an independent candidate with a history of feuds with local officials, said in response she would sue the state Government Accountability Board for infringing on her freedom of speech.
