South Carolina Democrat James Clyburn has come out with this gem of baseless racism against President Obama, and, by extension, himself. (according to him)
As reported by McClatchy:
“You know, I’m 70 years old,” he said. “And I can tell you; people don’t like to deal with it, but the fact of the matter is, the president’s problems are in large measure because of the color of his skin.”
Clyburn noted that he himself got hate mail, racist phone calls and offensive faxes on a regular basis. Asked how that relates to the president, Clyburn retorted: “We have the same skin color; that’s how it relates to him.”
Clyburn brings nothing to the table, but just the belief that the President’s problems are because of his skin color. Any chance the President’s problems come from unpopular polices, a lackluster administration, additional wars, an ineffective foreign policy or one of any number of other subjects that have nothing to do with race?
