CHARLOTTE, N.C. Rep. John Lewis used his Thursday convention speech to argue that a GOP victory in November will send African-Americans back to the early 1960s, when he and other Africans-Americans were forcibly denied access to restaurants, public transportation and the ballot box.
Ive seen this before, I lived this before, he claimed, after extensively describing his activism in Southern states in the 1950 and 1960s.
We were met by an angry mob that beat us and left us lying in a pool of blood, he said to raucous applause from roughly 20,000 delegates and activists.
Brothers and sisters, do you want to go back? he called, prompted a loud response of No!
Or do you want to keep America moving forward? he asked Sept. 6 to raucous applause from roughly 20,000 delegates and activists.

He’s the racist who falsely charged that he was spit on at the DC Tea Party. He and Nazi Pelosi were so fearful, they walsed through the “terrorist” crowd for a media show.
Lewis is a racist ass-clown.
Whachoo usin fo bait, Louie?
In one way I agree with John Lewis, Black racist that he is. American Blacks after November 6, 2012 will have by their very own votes cast, by their own hands, segregated themselves apart from the American Republic and freeedom culture by becoming adrift at sea, without purpose or direction.
Yep.....its life on the “Obama Economic Slave Plantation” for them for many to come. Now.....please, save us the rants, raves and complaints about your lot in life, you chose it of your own free will. Sad......that these folks cannot see the forest for the trees!!!
It helps that they place a picture of Lewis near stories that report his pronouncements. The guy even looks stupid on top of the look that he just ate something boundlessly unpleasant.
d be happy with taking away EBT cards, eliminating subsidies and public housing, reactivating Glass-stegall and tightening SSI disability requirements and doing away with AA so we never have to suffer from the likes of Bozo ever again.
This is crazy. Because John Lewis was beaten up at Selma, and marched for civil rights and voting rights, it’s like we’re supposed to be shocked and awed by anything such a person says. What he says is ridiculous, but because of who he is, we’re supposed to just accept his absurd prediction of how dangerous a Romney victory would be.
You John Lewis have earned yourself a spot in eternal hell
This is what the dimwits can't comprehend. They think simple property ownership is what creates wealth. Like their boneheaded relatives in Zimbabwe (Rhodesia) who ran whites off their farms, they don't understand that it takes intelligence and hard work to generate a functional economy. Zimbabwe and Detroit have much in common.
John Lewis the people who beat you and left you lying in a pool of blood were Democrats.
Lewis is a racist, fool, idiot and stooge
“It is a disgrace for him to say such things. Makes a mockery of the past suffering.”
On a positive note, rather than have whites have this shoved down their throats forever, it has now entered the realm of political half-truth and can be dismissed by future whites as such. Young whites no longer need to feel responsible for the lack of assimilation of the war contraband from centuries before they were born; it is simply political grandstanding and racial agitation.
“There was one woman in particular who was crying the day after the results of the 2004 election came down, since her husband, a union shop steward, told her that Bush was going to “reinstate slavery,” her words!”
What a hopeless people; can any productive American really feel anything in common with such ill-informed rabble?
“This superannuated moron should be careful what he wishes for because in the great scheme of things it is white peoples taxes (and other responsible citizens) that keep his race afloat. Hes just another court jester”
I think the concern is that whites are bled dry by high taxes and unemployment the taxpayers expect the perpetually dependent portion of blacks to grow up; that is simply not going to happen, because liberals have made it illegal to provide a quality public education in black neighborhoods (in the same manner that it was illegal to teach a slave to read & write).
If he was really awake back then, he’d know it was DEMOCRATS who instituted such policies.
“HE PLAYED ON OUR FEARS” - Al Gore Junior, former VP and batsh!t crazy eco-priest.

Lot of that going on but it’s not the way he portrays it.
The most valuable gem to a liberal is the magnificent, priceless, Prism of Race.
I’m sorry...Lewis is supposed to be one of the heroes of the Civil Rights movement. But due to his penchant for engaging in lies and incendiary rhetoric, I’d have to label him a scoundrel.
Believe me, all those democrats really believe this crap. They cant think on their own. Liberals in every town in America will repeat what is said on TV that day. Remember Selected, not elected? Now they will start repeating the lies that the republicans want to enslave blacks.
Start repeating? They have been saying it for at least the last 15 or 20 years.
