The number three Democrat in the House, behind only Pelosi and Hoyer, and a longtime practitioner of toxic race-bating on behalf of his party. Unbelievable.

It`s not unbelievable. Just the opposite. It`s very believable.

I have to admit I would like to take a fire hose to the lot of them.

Sticks and stones. They are running out of things to compare us with. After they use "kitten killers" and "baby eaters" they will have nothing left to call us.

They are scared.

The thugs were likely ordered up in support of the Democrats filibuster in the Senate, led by none other than Sen Sheets Byrd.

Let them screech.

Race-baiting has always worked and it has worked well for 40 years.

The problems with this tactic now is that the ones who are baited are not racist and are ignoring this screed.

The only thing this does is to expose the left further and further.

Let him go...no one is buying this BS. They’re setting the stage to do to themselves what the R’s failed to do the past two elections.

Conservatives are really as gentle as Charlie Brown, wanting to believe so badly Lucy won't pull that football, it never occurs to them to kick Lucy, instead. This guy is such a Clyburn... isn't he? (Oh, wait...)

It's past time for "The Outrage," and Conservatives need to learn the meaning of such good, old fashioned words like "resolute," and even "sticks and stones..."

Someone's got to keep the fire burning under the Borg until well past the time The Hive goes into compromise-mode, once again. You can already hear, "Oh, their going to pass some kind of health-care reform bill, before December."

Believe me when I tell you that the most offending parts of this bill, as bad as the Death Panels are, is the overall reversal of roles between government and People. This bill put makes government our rulers, not the other way around, and whatever bill survives the legalese adopted, in amendments, on the House Floor, in the Senate and in Conference, that will be hailed as a "victory" by the likes of Newt, will still undoubted retain this basic change in the social contract.

I don't know what course others may take, as Henry said, but I simple won't go along. The bill, in the only form acceptable to the Ruling Elites, Advance Directives and "Single-Payer, Public-Option" language, notwithstanding, this bill overthrows the Citizen and the People as being paramount over government.

"Unconstitutional" makes little difference since the People's opposition, to Obama, has become a Clear and Present Danger to Continuity of Government. We are to be made into slaves, our health, our lives, owned by the State, unless we stick through in our opposition to the end, and the Clyburns of the world will consider Conservatives and Independents to be low-lifes, of lesser value, regardless if they stay at home and comply, as they believed we would, from the start.

Their desperation is manifest, and their pulling out all stops, hammering away at their drum. And after the passion of opposition wains with the pretense of compromise, they will pass somekind of bill that is destructive of inalienable rights.

So, we must fight till the very end, or become slaves of the Bureaucrat Party, who want to remake the nation into a support system for government. So understand that the real problem with this bill is that it will start a slow fuse on Civil War.

Because, if in violation, say by simple silence, when the ACORN gang comes to my house to assess our healthcare needs, and levied a fine, I will not pay.

When tried, I will defend, and when I lose and am fined, I will not pay.

When jailed, I will not resist alone.

My mind is made up, without all the outrage and immune from the name-calling. I'm not going along with the Program, no matter how compromised it becomes. Because, with passage of the measures the president is spending all his political capital to create, the Declaration of Independence, our "reason for being" as a nation ceases to exist.

Note I am not advocating violence. I'm just saying that I cannot cooperate with this very "un-American" legislation, and I won't. And I am not alone. They will just have to put us all in jail, I guess.

He should not be whining.

His daughter was just appointed by Obama as FCC Commissioner, a very lucrative position. Then Clyburn shills for Obama on healthcare. This really smells rotten, and why isn't there an outcry? Pure nepotism. Is that what we have come to as a country?

All those people who said during the election that those who opposed Obama’s policies would be accused of racism, please take a bow.

The reality is, the Democrats have nothing with which to defend this bill, so they resort to smears.

I used to live in this assclown’s gerrymandered district in South Carolina. It’s very believable indeed. The only reason he’s been in the House forever is because the SC Sixth District was specifically created to elect a black man to Congress. It stretches 120 miles between metro Columbia and metro Charleston, in places no wider than the right of way along Interstate 26, and is built to take in large areas of majority-black rural population along the way.

A bit of aggravation here--is it THAT difficult to post an article correctly on FR? Posting it this way makes it difficult to see who the author of the article is, and other information is hard to find too. It might be worth a try. The little form that comes up is going to look something like this:

Noting that one had been painted on the office of Rep. David Scott (D-Ga.), an African-American, Clyburn insisted that was proof enough that some of the protests were racially motivated.

My money is on a staffer doing this. Sheila Jackson-Lee, in Texas, had a DNC delegate "play a doctor" at her townhall meeting in order to try to convince the crowd that the DeathCare bill would be a "good thing".

John Dingell had a fellow show up at his townhall meeting carrying a sign that compared zero to Hitler. Later, after the meeting was over, this same guy was handing out Dingell support material. Turns out that he is a Dingell supporter that the office staff hired to carry the "Hitler" sign to get the photo op for the smear campaign.

So, I think the leftist playbook is in play here and I would NOT be surprised to learn that these incidents are simply more people hired by Dems to do this stuff.
