James Clyburn (D-SC6) shows once again why Democrats are going to get trounced: they really don’t understand the mood of the American Public
Democrats could revive the public healthcare option if they maintain their majorities in Congress, the House Democrats’ third-ranking member said Friday.
“Reelect me, keep Democrats on the field. And when we come back next year, maybe we will get to the public option,” Majority Whip James Clyburn (S.C.) said during an appearance on the Tom Joyner Morning Show.
The GOP should turn that into a campaign ad, hitting the Dems for wanting to continue to push their government takeover of the health industry while the economy and jobs market burn. But, wait, it gets even better!
“It’s a tough climate out here, almost like after the [passage of] the 1964 Civil Rights Act,” Clyburn said. “What we’ve got to do — what Democrats got to do — is get out here and let people know that … we led a good foundation.”
Fucking seriously? Did he just really equate the two?
