The assistant leader of the House Democrats reportedly said Wednesday that the sexual-misconduct charges against Rep. John Conyers Jr. might be false because all the complaining women are white.

Rep. James E. Clyburn, South Carolina Democrat, made the purported remarks Wednesday at a meeting of the House Democratic Caucus, according to Robert Draper, a reporter for New York Times Magazine and National Geographic.

“At this morning’s House Democratic caucus: James Clyburn compared Conyers‘ accusers to the child murderer Susan Smith, who initially claimed a black man had abducted her kids. Clyburn said, these are all white women who’ve made these charges against Conyers,” Mr. Draper tweeted.

You can imagine black guys sitting back home in Clyburn’s South Carolina district and laughing at the TV when this comment comes on. Even among blacks, it’s a silly comment.

OMG, this is getting nuts. Now, to defend a sexual predator, they are going to pull the race card against women who are not of the color they like? Even though these women were sexually assaulted, it’s about skin color now? And to think these guys are making legal decisions for the united states. We need to nuked DC when congress is in session and start all over. We are the people revolting and stopping this crap? Have we lost all courage???

The leftists are doing nothing less than trying to impose discriminatory Jim Crowe-type laws upon the majority of the American population.

Speaking for myself, I will arm up and fight in another revolution before I accept becoming a second-class citizen in the country that I and my ancestors built out of the wilderness.

Stupid.

Nonsensical even. Sure if there was one accuser, maybe, but there were multiple women all saying this.

The guy apparently likes white women.

Nothing at all wrong with that, but expressing that interest inappropriately is the problem here.

Big problem it would seem, perhaps.

Oh this is rich. Does this mean Conyers is racist?

I'm not so sure there isn't a pretty large segment who either believes it, or doesn't care. Notice how Dem leadership themselves never go on about impeachment, but gave the job to the likes of Maxine Waters and Al Green, who really aren't afraid to say anything, no matter how ridiculous.

Because they know there are supreme idiots that will support them no matter what. It’s beyond pathetic.

Because everyone knows black men don’t want anything to do with white women.

Clyburn’s stupidity is a threat to our national security since he holds high positions on congressional committees.

Somebody ought to do a big background check on this leftist lunatic.

Clyburn isn’t “the new sheriff!” He’s just an old race-baiting Lawn Jockey!

By that logic, all of obama’s claims were false because he’s black.
