VIDEO - In 2012, Clyburn Pushed For "Joint-Whipping" Operation w/Repubs to Cut Social Security [View all]

Let's not forget Clyburn's effort to help Obama strike a Grand Bargain with Republicans to cut Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.

He sold the people out long, long ago and it's no surprise he's campaigning for Hilly.

"We want to take a look at what we can do to Medicare and Medicaid, means testing, although we do means test Medicare now. I think we ought to expand means testing and I really think we can take a look at the way we compute the consumer price index."
