Amazingly, Clyburn is even dumber than he looks.

Via Politico:

Democratic Rep. Jim Clyburn is predicting that Republicans will try to impeach Barack Obama so that they can “put an asterisk” next to the name of the first black president.

“There will be some reason found to introduce an impeachment resolution,” the South Carolina congressman said Tuesday on MSNBC. “These Republicans have decided that this president must have an asterisk by his name after he leaves office, irrespective of whether or not he gets convicted. It is their plan to introduce an impeachment resolution.”

He continued, “[This whole charade] is to put an asterisk next to this first African-American president in the history of the country — to put an asterisk next to his name when the history books are written.”
