Those looking to get a frostee in the town of Irmo Wednesday afternoon, discovered the person handing it to them might have come as a surprise. 

Congressman Joe Wilson stopped by the Wendy's franchise as part of his "Joe means Jobs" campaign tour.  He was there highlighting the importance of small businesses.  Wilson emphasized lowering corporate taxes to encourage small business growth.

"We have some of the highest taxes in the world," said Congressman Joe Wilson.  "That makes it very difficult for us to compete with Europe, with Asia.  So we need to reduce taxes."

Wilson is in a heated re-election race against democratic challenger Rob Miller.
