REP. STEVE KING (R-IA): This whole white people business though does get a little tired, Charlie. I mean, I would ask you to go back through history and figure out where are these contributions that have been made by these other categories of people that you are talking about, where did any other subgroup of people contribute more to civilization? 

CHRIS HAYES (HOST): Than white people? 

KING: Than Western civilization itself that's rooted in Western Europe, Eastern Europe, and the United States of America, and every place where the footprint of Christianity settled the world. That's all of Western civilization.
