He proclaimed that “sharks still swim the route the ships took bringing slaves over as they threw slaves overboard”.

“Lewis was fighting for civil rights alongside MLK. I respect him for that not for being a race baiting Congress roach“

Actually, he is exactly that. Remember, Lewis was the one who falsely claimed Tea Partiers spit at him on the House steps. He’s also been right there siding and abetting the “Trump is a racist” narrative.

You forgot that this race baiting congressional roach accused Tea Partiers of spitting on him and calling him a n***** during one of the demonstrations against the way they were ramming bammycare down our throats?

Which was never proven to be true on ANY of the videos taken of that.

Andrew Breitbart even offered $100k for a video of it happening but none was ever produced.

I guess I don’t hold this POS in the same sentimental value as you because of that but that’s just me....

He proclaimed that “sharks still swim the route the ships took bringing slaves over as they threw slaves overboard”.

Yes, I remember that. Either a stupidly ignorant thing to say or a coldly calculated thing to say. With Lewis, it's probably both.

Your first instinct was admirable, hopefully you will return to it in the future instead of allowing the groupthink here to influence your responses.

Maybe when they are sick they don’t want to retire and lose their gold-plate health plans. The horror of being thrown onto Obamacare with the peons.

Kevin, Phil,

You guys might want to go back and re-read C19fan’s original comment. You missed the word “that”, and so your harsh replies are mistaken:

> Lewis was fighting for civil rights alongside MLK. I respect him for that not for being a race baiting Congress roach.

Just sayin’. And C19fan: You might want to use more commas to delineate your phrases. Save yourself some unjustified criticism. Just sayin’. :-)

The democRATS pushed old Joe to the front of the line to win the democRAT nomination but only because they know they won't win anyway, so he's a faux sacrificial lamb.

This is the best they have of their entire bench. Weak.
