4196384, clyburn has changed his tune when Rep John Lewis spoke out
Posted by BenDavid on Fri Jan-25-08 11:26 AM

against obama and his campaign using the race card and knowing full well that neither clinton are racist.

Rep. Lewis forcefully condemned both Obama and his campaign for sending out the 5 pointed attacks on the Clintons and their supporters which implied they were "racists" or using "racist code" Rep. Lewis also spoke about how obama himself was being wholly misleading as regards to Hillary and her comment about LBJ and MLK .

"It is unfortunate that people have tried to distort what Mrs. Clinton had to say about Dr. King," "I think there has been a deliberate and systematic attempt by some people in the Obama campaign to really fan the flames about race and to really distort what Senator Clinton said. I understood and I think most right thinking people understood what she said.

"President and Senator Clinton have a record, a history, a very long history of bringing people together. No right thinking American would ever think that Senator or President Clinton would ever do anything that would use the race card"

When Mr lewis made these comments, clyburn was not available for comments....
