Rep. Mike Honda Takes Coble to Task

Rep. Mike Honda (D-CA) condemned the assertion by Rep. Howard Coble (R-NC) that Japanese-Americans were interred for their own safety during World War II. These remarks were weeks ago, and the two had met behind closed doors to talk it out. Honda’s been waiting for the Republican leadership to do something about this guy, like strip him of his chairmanship of the House subcommittee on domestic security. The leadership hasn’t moved, so Honda’s calling them out.
