    He didn't sound racist in full context and not just that clip. If you wanted to stretch it, Clinton was saying his constituents then were ignorant and racist or as young and stupid as he was.

    The clip itself was the part where Clinton puts Byrd in full context instead of the Senate giant he became.

    Another Fox News story trying to get their white viewership riled up so they support their financial betters?

    I guess it worked. I'm sure I'll hear about it from my parents this week. :( So sad and pathetic.

    Dear lord, that is an AWESOME term. I've heard and used the phrase "can't argue with fools" before, and now I know there is an actual psychological precedent for it.

    I feel like my life has been validated.
