A video has surfaced this evening of the incident today involving civil rights icon Rep. John Lewis (D-GA) and Tea Party protesters on Capitol Hill.
Rep. Lewis has alleged that he was called a n***** by the protesters.
Rep. Andre Carson (D-IN), who was walking with Rep. Lewis, says he heard the word n***** fifteen times.
Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D-MO) claims "It was a chorus" of people yelling "n*****."
The video, filmed by Marooned in Marin and posted at YouTube, shows Reps. Lewis and Carson walking together, with Rep. Cleaver several yards behind as they fight their way through the Tea Party patriots like they were in 1965 Selma, Alabama.
Reps. Chaka Fattah (D-PA) and Maxine Waters (D-CA) are also walking behind Lewis in the video.
View the shocking video here.

But it immediately went into broad circulation in the critical, analytical, self checking, fact checking, logical, questioning MSM!
Will they ever question their statements and essentially attacking the Tea party goers? Will they question the validity and slanderous remarks of a US elected official????????

I heard “kill the bill” and some “booing” - period. They didn’t think someone was taping and thought they’d get away with it. Liars!

That doesn’t prove a darn thing. Infiltrators love to cause trouble.
If they did say it, it wasn’t TPers.

What’s interesting is, watch it again and look at the last guy through the line....he’s got his cellphone out in ‘tape mode’ or ‘mic mode’...I bet WAITING for a racial epithet to be uttered.
Where is HIS audio/video?

If you listen at 45 seconds it sounds like somebody said it from further back in the crowd. My guess is it was probably a plant, hard to say for sure. If it was some tea party fellow he’s a moron just like the rats.

No, that was Major Owens, former NY Congressman. Lewis is from GA and a tad more sane. Usually.

That is what I was thinking. They have a pychological disorder and hear racists voices everywhere. It is in their own freaking minds. They are sick.

When the Democrats use the race card, you know they are losing. You knew they were going to pull out all stops on this one. This the Marxists Civil War in America.
