Jim Clyburn Is Just Being Honest
Tired old poverty pimp Jim Clyburn was on some FOX News program earlier this week promoting President Barack Obama’s big socialized medicine speech – which has (go figure) been completely overshadowed by the actions of another S.C. Congressman.
One of the cracker ones.
Anyway, we won’t bore you with all the context surrounding his appearance, but at one point during the interview Clyburn was asked by former New Jersey Superior Court Judge Andrew Napolitino about the Constitutionality of “Obamacare.”
Here was his answer:
“There’s nothing in the Constitution that says the federal government has anything to do with most of the stuff we do.”
No truer words have ever been spoken, people … which is precisely the problem.
“There’s nothing in the Constitution that says the federal government has anything to do with most of the stuff we do.”

his outrage at Wilson rings false. I would bet my life that he BOOED Bushy in 2005 at the top of his lungs, during the State of the Union address.

And people are mad at Wilson for bringing fame to South Carolina? On one hand you’ve got someone that spoke truth and on the other you have another poverty pimp mac daddy once again pushing the old Woe is me, I needs hep since I’se been abused and the public needs to empty theys wallets here and now. Yep, I think South Carolina has the wrong focus…..here you’ve got an Obama moment of inadvertent truth and nobody cares? Better start looking folks, these ass clowns in Washington are expanding their command and control into your living room. When the President says “you will be required to have health insurance”, I ask “by what right do you have to demand anything of me”? Might be something ya’ll want to think about and not be distracted by crys of decorum, civility, rudeness.

It’s refreshing to hear the subtle truth of government.

Sometimes I think you are paid by the Democrats. Jim Clyburn is a walking joke. He can not even find the money for his bridge to nowhere to be properly funded. Perhaps he should concern himself with that instead of kissing your fake Republican Democrat loving ass.

Each Washington politician stands up and swears to uphold the Constitution. To which I reply, Liar Liar pants on fire.

This is Clyburn speaking as if he is the trapper of the year in the U.S. Congress, “fuck the constitution” he implies, just like J-Futuristic traps the white lady and isn’t afraid to boast about his illegal drug activities it in some pretty hard knocking rap music. Congress has made a joke of precedent and American values…

K Trane he will because the district is drawn up with a crayola

Toyota, just wait intil the 2010 census results are in. The lines will be redrawn as necessary to keep Clyburn in power. Remember the old days when district lines made sense? Gerrymander is the rule now.

Regarding Joe Wilson’s truth to power statement: My husband and I just got back from the Taxpayers’ March on DC and saw plenty of support for Rep. Wilson. From the first Metro stop signs (”I am Joe Wilson” and “Joe Wilson speaks for me.” etc) to the march itself, (”Joe Wilson for President”, “As quoted by Joe Wilson, You Lie!”), plenty of people recognize the truth when they see and hear it. In fact, “You lie!” was almost a rallying cry and theme for many in the pro-Constitution event.

Today, I saw someone, a House of Representatives member from Georgia who could make Jim Clyburn look like Albert Einstein. Henry C. “Hank” Johnson Jr., to be nice, does not come across that well.
