C’mon, Clyburn, is that the best you can do ? Why don’t you just call them Nazis, you know you want to.
Everything is about “race” to this guy. Well...for all DEMS I guess.
Any democrat who wants to see racism, need only look in the nearest mirror.
His desperation of playing the race card shows just how worried the dims are about these hearings.
He’s right....after all,the ambassador *was* white.
Let me get this straight. The Benghazi investigation is actually an effort to end some sort of Reconstruction.
This genius just needs to point out all of the valuable structures that the current Reconstructers have erected.
Not likely to see Mau-Mauing on the Committee itself but the audience will be stacked with disruptors.
OMG, it’s the Night Riders all over again!
Clyburn and his fellow travelers reek of desperation. Their fear has the odor of defeat.
I think the Dems are really scared of something they think will come out. Some of the things they have said is over the top, even by Dem standards...
Clyburn is a much better demagogue than historian!
Benghazi, VA, IRS scandal, Marxist _resident in the White Hut...
...the kinds of things that led to the Secession in 1860-61.....will cross the Reconstruction bridge after WE WIN.
This the moment for the alternative media. They will need to get the truth out so the American people can see that Democrats don’t care about our people and don’t want us to know the truth. Dumpocrats are mindless statists and the enemies of Freedom.
Heck of a lot of bloviating just to say, “that’s racist!”
When, if ever, will this investigate gain access to witnesses on the ground?
We know Obama doesn't want any of them answering what they were there, but how can he hide them and keep them from testifying?
Do we even have their names?
This moron doesn't know squat about the end of Reconstruction.
There were Congressional hearings about Reconstruction in the early 1970's, but they mainly documented abuses in the South of the rights of blacks. It was at this time the Ku Klux Klan Act was passed that treated the Klan as a terrorist organization. So, he has his history backwards.
The real way Reconstruction ended was because of the election of 1876. By then, Northerners were also growing tired of garrisoning troops in the South to keep white Democrat Southerners from depriving blacks of their rights. The War had been over more than ten years. The Election of 1876 was disputed, coming down to disputed electoral votes in three Southern states. A backroom deal was cut where the Democrats allowed those votes to go to the Republican, Hayes, if the Republicans agreed to pull the last troops from the South.
From then on, the Solid South emerged where in almost all states there was one-party Democrat rule that eventually imposed segregation and denied blacks the right to vote. And that was your party, Congressman.
And that was in 1876, not 1898.
You need a remedial class in history.
James, it's not about black, nor about white, Benghazi is about red, as in Americans bleeding red.
If I were one of this clowns constituents, I would be embarrassed.

Uh - my history’s a bit rusty, but I seem to remember that it was the Republican party that was pushing for reconstruction, while the Democrat party, which literally advertised itself after the Civil War as “The White Man’s Party”, sought to undermine it......
Maybe Obamacare will pay for a brain transplant for Clyburn.
