Clyburn: GOP letter criticizing
Rice uses racial ´code words´

The Hill [Washington, DC], by Justin Sink

Original Article

Rep. James Clyburn (D-S.C.) said Tuesday a letter from nearly 100 House Republicans urging President Obama not to appoint Susan Rice as Secretary of State employed racially-charged "code words" to make its case. The letter, signed by 97 House Republicans, says Rice, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, "is widely viewed as having either willfully or incompetently misled the American public in the Benghazi matter" — language Clyburn saw as racially loaded. "You know, these are code words," Clyburn, the third-ranking Democrat in the House, told CNN. "We heard them during the campaign, during this recent

Comments:
Oh puhleeze. This is so very tedious. As always, the Democrats will always follow the Alinsky Rules of Radicals. Call everyone names to divert the attention from the real matter and attempt to protect her from liability.

Clyburn---If the "incompetent" shoe fits...wear it.
Unbelievable to me how an ignorant, barely educated, racist like Clyburn can be the 3rd ranking Dim in the House--all because he is elected from a District that has been created specifically to guarantee a black is elected.
So Clyburn´s only credentials to hold office is that he is black.
And who is the real racist?

OK Clyburn, you win, all white people are racist. There, can you go away now. What a one trick pony.

It´s official. INCOMPETENCE and LACK OF ABILITY are now racial ´code words´.

CLYBURN: I hear white people.

Incompetent - inadequate or unsuitable for the purpose - as in BHO saying she knew nothing about the topic.
Lazy - disinclined to work - as in doing nothing more than taking the talking points she was given and going on 5 major networks and reporting a completely inaccurate scenario to the American people without any independent effort before hand to verify the accuracy of what she was given when she knew nothing about the topic.

This is becoming a joke! Any word spoken about a negro is code word for racist.
Why do I use the word Negro? Well, there is a United Negro College Fund.
How about I call them colored? National Association of Colored People - NAACP.
And Black as in Congressional Black Caucus.
But the big N word is reserved for blacks who call other blacks that word.
And if you watch an episode of Bait Car, you will see and hear young blacks calling each other, ´my niggah.´ Sometimes every spoken sentence begins with ´my niggah.´
So, Mr. Clyburn, we don´t buy your shuckin´ and jivin.´ Oops - there I go again.

She is a documented liar, as is her boss. How is that racist...?

I once told a black co-worker, a woman, that it was a shame she had missed a little social gathering and that we had missed her.

Later that day she came into my office and told me she didn´t appreciate me saying "shame on you" for missing the party, and that I had talked down to her because she was black.
I just stared... To say I was bewildered is an understatement; I had NO idea what she was talking about. Turns out that´s what she heard even though it wasn´t at all what I said, or intended. But it gave me some insight into that filter.

Rep Clyburn is ginning up racism where none exists. "Incompetent" is not a color. SHAME ON HIM. And yes, this time I do mean SHAME.


Reply 12 - Posted by: AltaD, 11/20/2012 10:33:19 AM     (No. 9025410)

I suppose "misled" is code for "liar".

Yes, I can see how someone like Mr. Clyburn would think that the words "incompetent´ and "misled" were words that people would think described those like him.


Reply 14 - Posted by: Jeninmo, 11/20/2012 10:45:14 AM     (No. 9025449)

Could somebody publish the list of "code words" for racism, because I missed the memo? Is it fluid? Does it change depending on "who" says it? I want the racist, bigot, homophobe code word list, anyone?


Reply 15 - Posted by: shalimar, 11/20/2012 10:51:33 AM     (No. 9025472)

Honestly, I think this belief in "racial code words" is a symptom of some kind of mental illness. How paranoid can a person be?

So many codewords so little time. Now I have to update my codeword dictionary again.

Thanks Rep. James Clyburn (D-S.C.) for confirming that you are a clueless blithering idiot. You provide the proof that there are some really stupid black people in our society. (some = 10%)

Rules for Cowards...was the word Incompetent one of those?

Why do I think if I called RAT Clyburn´s office and asked him to kindly share a list of "racial code words" so that I could avoid using them, he´d send me a copy of the Websters Colligiate Unabridged Dictionary (you know, the real, real thick volume) with a post-it note on the cover saying "all of them in this book."?


Reply 21 - Posted by: southron, 11/20/2012 12:04:00 PM     (No. 9025649)

Clyburn holds office as a result of a district constructed with crooked, snakelike boundaries to insure that only a black can be elected. He has used his office to line his pockets and make continuing racist accusations - he´s done nothing else!


Reply 22 - Posted by: bighambone, 11/20/2012 12:44:30 PM     (No. 9025766)

In this politically correct era one should just consider that she did the best she could, consider that to be a new standard of excellence, and simply go on.

When all you have going for you is the color of your skin, you cry racisim. How about you put those racial code words where the sun don´t shine, you freaking hypocrit racist.

Colorado sheriffs seek to

file lawsuit against state

DENVER — Colorado sheriffs upset with gun restrictions adopted in the aftermath of last year’s mass shootings filed a federal lawsuit Friday, challenging the regulations as unconstitutional. The lawsuit involves sheriffs from 54 of Colorado’s 64 counties, most representing rural, gun-friendly areas of the state. The sheriffs say the new state laws violate Second Amendment protections that guarantee the right to keep and bear arms. Opponents are criticizing the lawsuit as political maneuvering. The filing targets Colorado laws that limit the size of ammunition magazines and expand background checks. The regulations

WASHINGTON – Jay Devereaux hadn’t paid much attention to the daily drumbeat of partisan politics in D.C. He wasn’t a Washington nerd, and didn’t know who said what during congressional hearings -- nor did he care. But when news broke that the government was using taxpayer money to bail out Wall Street banks, he started paying attention and didn’t like what he was hearing. So the Florida father and information technology specialist decided to form a group, Unite in Action, to educate people in his area about the issues, he said.

First Lady Michelle Obama has expanded her anti-obesity campaign to museums, enlisting them to offer “healthy food options,” and change their menus. Mrs. Obama’s “Let’s Move!” initiative is now calling for museums, zoos, gardens, science and technology centers to “join the call to action,” to decrease obesity among children. The first lady is recruiting these institutions to join the “Let’s Move! Museums and Gardens” project because of their power to “influence real and sustained behavior change” on the eating habits of kids. “With their impressive reach and great potential for impact, museums and gardens can launch community

During a House Ways and Means Committee hearing today, Rep. Aaron Schock, R-Ill., grilled outgoing IRS commissioner Steven Miller about the IRS targeting a pro-life group in Iowa. "Their question, specifically asked from the IRS to the Coalition for Life of Iowa: ‘Please detail the content of the members of your organization’s prayers,’" Schock declared. “Would that be an inappropriate question to a 501 c3 applicant?” asked Schock. “The content of one’s prayers?” “It pains me to say I can’t speak to that one either,” Miller replied. After Schock pressed him further, Miller explained that although

WASHINGTON — Congressional Republicans, not resting with the Internal Revenue Service scandal, are moving to broaden the matter to an array of tax malfeasances and “intimidation tactics” they hope will ensnare the White House. Republican charges range from the clearly questionable to the seemingly specious, and they grow by the day. On Friday, lawmakers sought to tie the I.R.S. matter to the implementation of President Obama’s health care law, which will rely heavily on the agency. Whether they succeed holds significant ramifications for Mr. Obama,

HHS:´Telework´ Gives Gov´t

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services says it wants as many as 20 percent of its workers to "telework," use an "alternative work schedule," or do both, in order to "reduce green house gas emissions," decrease "employee stress," and give these government workers more time for "planning and preparing healthy meals." So says one of the HHS "performance measures" detailed in an appendix to the department´s latest strategic plan. HHS´s performance measure "4.D.05" says: "Increase the percent employees on telework or on Alternative Work Schedule." Telework means working from home via phone and computer.

Bloodletting, in the form of firings, dismissals, resignation, and expulsions, is a tribal rite in political Washington. It is most often used by the powerful on anyone less powerful as a symbolic sacrifice. Steven Miller, the now former acting commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service, is the latest victim of ritual sacrifice. This week the Obama White House demanded his resignation to demonstrate the president’s “anger” at news that the IRS targeted conservative groups applying for tax-exempt status for added review and slow approval. Next, we’ll watch as Congress takes up the bloodletting knife.

Obama administration officials who were in key positions on Sept. 11, 2012, acknowledge that a range of mistakes were made the night of the attacks on the U.S. missions in Benghazi, and in messaging to Congress and the public in the aftermath. The officials spoke to CBS News in a series of interviews and communications under the condition of anonymity so that they could be more frank in their assessments. They do not all agree on the list of mistakes and it's important to note that they universally claim that any errors or missteps did not cost lives and reflect "incompetence rather than malice or cover up.

Watching President Obama trying to dodge raindrops and responsibility yesterday reminded me of the moment when Dorothy pulls back the curtain and discovers that the Wizard of Oz is “just a man.” Stripped of his spell of mystery and power, the wizard is worse than mortal. He’s a fake. So it was with Obama in the Rose Garden. His performance was tired and trite, ordinary to the point of dull. His veneer of passion was so transparent that you could see him trying to summon his old-time magic by pushing the buttons

STANDING BEFORE reporters Thursday, President Obama declined an invitation to compare the recent scandals weighing down his administration with those that forced President Nixon to resign in 1974. So allow us to do the work for him: There is no comparison. Nixon, in a series of crimes that collectively came to be known as Watergate, directed from the White House and Justice Department a concerted campaign against those he perceived as political enemies, in the process subverting the FBI, the IRS, other government agencies and the electoral process to his nefarious purposes. Mr. Obama has done nothing of the kind.

The State Department, under Secretary Hillary Rodham Clinton, created an arrangement for her longtime aide and confidante Huma Abedin to work for private clients as a consultant while serving as a top adviser in the department. Ms. Abedin did not disclose the arrangement — or how much income she earned — on her financial report. It requires officials to make public any significant sources of income. An adviser to Mrs. Clinton, Philippe Reines, said that Ms. Abedin was not obligated to do so. The disclosure of the agreement that Ms. Abedin made with the State Department comes as her husband,

In the wake of one of the worst abuses of government power in recent history, many are rushing to frame the Internal Revenue Service scandal as simply an attack on conservative activists. That view risks creating a partisan political football and misses a fundamentally scarier abuse that exceeds the scandals of Watergate or any other prior government abuse. The IRS has admitted that since May 2010 it targeted grassroots-conservative organizations that had applied for tax-exempt status, unfairly subjecting them to rigorous scrutiny due to their political leanings. Such groups were told they were required to comply with IRS requests,

President Obama’s press conference in the rain was not a success, if by success, his supporters would mean an event which convinces anyone who doesn’t work for him that he’s getting ahead of the scandal deluge. The sight of a Marine holding an umbrella over his head only added to the weirdness of the event. So what did we learn? 1. He has full confidence in Attorney General Eric Holder, the man who purportedly recused himself (whenever) without putting it in writing (whatever).

The lawmaker leading the charge to investigate the Benghazi terror attack on Friday subpoenaed the co-author of a report that slammed the State Department but didn´t interview Hillary Clinton. House Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) formally demanded that retired ambassador Thomas Pickering submit to being deposed by the committee next Thursday. The subpoena comes in the wake of a series of acrimonious public exchanges this week between the two men. Issa didn´t issue a subpoena to former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Michael Mullen, who co-authored the Benghazi report with Pickering.
