? the latest Newsweek includes snippets from a brief interview with South Carolina Rep. James Clyburn.

I highlight this piece not because of Clyburn?s playing of the race card. Instead I point to a statement that should remind us that illiberal collectivists are prepared for a long struggle to create a single-payer health-care system:

Will a health-care bill be passed?

A health bill will pass in some form soon. You will see significant progress. But it will be gradual just like the civil-rights bills in the ’60s. We didn’t get all we wanted right away. It took some years. But we started at the beginning and compromised and worked it out until it was done. This is what we have to do about health care.
