Dem Rep. James Clyburn: Black People “Understand What Newt Is Saying, He Wants Poor People To Be “Servers”

Here we go again.

“People who are poor are not suffering from any kind of a (poor) work ethic. I grew up pretty poor. But I got up at 4 o clock in the morning to deliver milk from a milk truck before going to school at 8:30.

I don’t need Newt Gingrich what it is to have a work ethic.

What he is talking about stratifying people. He is saying that the poor children in their schools ought to be the janitors in their schools. So that other people in the schools who are not so poor can see them as their servers. That is what we get from what he is saying. And to talk about what his daughter may have done. His daughter was never a janitor in the school she attended. That to me is a double standard. I understand what he is saying and most African Americans understand what he is saying. And we are not going to stand for it.”

Keep reading…

    If the shoe fits…..

    Since the 1960s, there hasn’t been one program aimed at helping the black community that has worked.
    EVERY Civil Rights law passed, every special program, every concessions made to them has failed.

    Perhaps it’s time we stopped blaming the programs and laws, and start to realize that some people are just better off being servers.

    Wow, after repeated readings of this dumbsh*t’s blather, I’m convinced they have to put corks on the end of his silverware and pad all the doorways in his special home.

    Newt doesn’t want all poor people to be servers, Clyburn- only idiots like you.

    Now go put on your velcro shoes and play in the street…there’s a good moron.

    I swear that race card is going to catch on fire if they don’t stop playing it everyday all day… I guess the Republicans are racist is the DNC talking point of the election.

    I wonder if they realize how sick and tired most Americans are of being called a racist, having everything they believe in called racist, and everyone they want into office called a racist???

    Small minded people, who are doing more damage to their race then anyone else every has…..

    Poll: 52 % of Americans Say Obama Has Failed

    President Barack Obama has barely achieved anything during his first three years in office, most Americans believe. Just 12 percent – less than one person in eight – say he has accomplished a great deal, despite Democrats’ boasts that he got through his signature healthcare plan and was in power when Osama bin Laden was killed, according to a new poll. A whopping 52 percent say the president has done either “not much” or “little or nothing.”

    So the black leftards will mention racism 100 times a day until the 2012 election in hopes that it will get their boy reelected? Sadly these morons haven’t got a clue. Ubama’s total failure as president/emperor/dictator has nothing to do with race. :roll: It’s the fact we want nothing to do with socialism/communism. :mad:

    If you won’t stand for it then sit your black ass down and take it….What he is talking about is working instead of a handout….If I was black a handout would be a hell of a lot more insulting than a paycheck for any thing. I never heard Newt mention race mr sensitive, I just heard poor and I was poor and would have been damn grateful to have had a job that would put a couple bucks in my pocket so I could ask a girl out on a date without having to go dutch….take that and smoke it in your black pipe asshole.

    Clyburn, your kids were never in work study programs in college either. Guess what, there are far more whites doing work study than blacks in colleges! Blacks are far more likely to get their tuition paid for than whites through scholarships, so they wouldn’t have to worry about work study in the first place. Furthermore, for those blacks who do utilize work study, how many had similar grades and test scores as their white/Asian colleagues? Small price to pay for (undeservedly) having a whole host of doors opened to you after graduating.

    Okay Clyburn , since it is so racist, just let the blacks opt out of the jobs, and let the poor whites, and others take the work. good enough???

    You and your black brothers, just go on setting on your black butts and suck off the welfare, and never make anything of yourselves. Let the government keep on telling you that you are useless, and don’t need to try and work, you wouldn’t understand how to anyway. Stay down in the slums, and keep killing one another as gang members. Maybe someone will soon give you your very own country. Say like Africa, where you all have done so well.
    Or you can get your mind in gear, and realize that this racist stuff is mostly a myth. A myth pushed by the democrats. MLK was a Republican dumbo!! A Republican is the one that brought about the racial equality bill that Democrats fought. Republicans fought and died during the civil war for your ungrateful selves.
    Wake up!!!

    Clyburn – quick- do a take down on the piano industry… they’sa putting too many white keys on the piano and nots very many black’un cuz a they’ze racist and hates da black people and wants them to be janitors instead of concert pianists. Da rich people who are racists put this system in place cuz they don’t wants da black people to

    I milked da cows at 3:00 am when I was 12:00, so I understand EXACTLY what you are talking about.

    BTW- the some of them dairy farmers w/ holstiens is racists cuz they have cows with more white color than black. Not all, but that’s how you can tell. Its code for hate’n da blacks.

    Interesting – a “Public Servant” who thinks service is beneath him.

    They don’t see their political careers as a way to serve but as a way to BE served. Typical lib arrogance. It’s in the HoR, the Senate, Congress and of course, the White House. It’s all disgusting.

    Time to clean house – no incumbents reelected in ’12. Vote ‘em all out.

    Clyburn is just a dumb ass, vacuous liberal idiot!

    Hey, Clyburn, you want equality with caucasians but you don’t want to work for it, you want it given as an ‘entitlement’.

    Fuck you! You are not entitled to shit. You earn it, you and your ilk, or you do without.

    You are in a free country, where you have the opportunity to embrace truth and come to greater understanding of your life, your society and the nation you are ‘supposed’ to be serving, and you come up with this racist bullshit?

    You embrace lies, innuendo, insinuation and accusation, instead of the truth .. don’t expect any sympathy for you or your racist friends.

    Get you ass in gear and start living in reality, or we will kick you ass out of office and you will be reduced to what you really deserve, disdain and contempt.

    There is an entire generation of Americans growing up whose initial and lasting impressions of what “racism” is are the incoherent grandstanding rants of buffoons like Clyburn, Pelosi, Jackson, and the ignoramuses on MSNBC.

    This generation will equate charges of “racism” with babbling incompetent stupidity.

    I suppose that’s one way to end racism as we know it.

    I am a white protestant. In my junior high school about 30 years ago, students were offered jobs working in the cafeteria as servers and clearing tables; also jobs straightening classrooms and emptying trash after school for one hour. We were paid a small amount for doing these jobs and they were sought after by many students. These were not considered demeaning jobs by the students. I was lucky enough to get a cafeteria job for a whole semester. Then it was offered to other students. Nobody ever complained as far as I know.

    well, from all I’ve seen, this moron from SC wants all minorities, specifically blacks to be poor, how dare black americans try to be successful and independent from the CBC.

    Clyburn’s message to black americans: “stay on the demonRat’s plantation where we can control you”!

    and there’s a different between serving and being a servant!

    I was a waitress all thru high school and college, I was providing a service and paid for it by the restaurant, I was not a servant!

  42. Grimmer says:
    January 18, 2012 at 4:45 pm

    So according to James Clyburn all blacks should be crowned royalty at birth?
    They can not be expected to labor because they once had ancestors who worked as slaves? The endless excuses the black community uses to cover their absolute failure as a people is laughable.

    Oh yes you are Clyburn, you are going to stand for it! For there is nothing that you can do about it. Your lying, race baiting days are coming to an end. You’ve built your entire career around making sure ‘your’ people blamed everyone and everything but themselves for their own choices. You’ve made sure that they never had any intiative of their own, and depended upon the Democrats and Federal Government for everything they got.

    It was the only way you could remain relevant and keep your office.

    Mr. Clyburn-
    If I understand your story correctly, you got off your butt and WORKED. Your family was poor, but you put forth the effort, bettered yourself, and are now a member of the US House of Representatives. This is pretty good evidence that getting an education and then getting a job (and thus getting off the dole) is “do-able” for most blacks. Despite all your wailing and carrying-on, you KNOW that “raaacism” didn’t hold YOU back, nor has it hindered all the other members of the Congressional Black Caucus, and the NAACP, and the dozens of other race-agitator organizations. The only thing the charge of “raaacism” does is reinforce in the minds of “your people” that it’s impossible for them to provide for themselves, so they need to keep electing grievance-mongers like you to make the government “take care” of them. You, sir, are doing a great disservice to your constituents and to the nation. *YOU* are helping keep “your people” enslaved. You should be ashamed of yourself.

    Unfortunately, the quaint notion of “shame” is another casualty of the Glorious New Age of Progressivism, isn’t it?

  54. Noelle says:

    It has to be said that “servers” is still a step up from “slaves.”
