Bye. Too bad he wasn’t smart enough to leave the plantation once he got free. Hope Nancy doesn’t hurt herself tottering to get to the podium first.

Lewis did more harm to genuine civil rights than he did good for them. He was a tool of the radical Left.

John Glenn was the same way. Only reason to be a democrap, is it’s the only way to rob a bank and still get honored as a statesman. RIP Milk-dud! You can explain your life of lies and corruption to the Lord.

“He was elected to Congress in 1986 and served 17 terms representing an Atlanta-area district. While in Congress, Lewis served as a physical reminder of how far the country had come on civil rights and how much more was left to be done.”
That’s his highest achievement in 34 years they could come up with, that he sat on his chair as a reminder?
A black wooden dummy would have served the same purpose and cost a lot less.

I hope he is with Christ in Heaven, but I am surely glad he is gone from Congress.

“Our nation is founded on the principle that we do not have kings. We have presidents. And the constitution is our compass. When you see something that is not right, not just, not fair, you have a moral obligation to say something. To do something. Our children and their children will ask us, “What did you do? What did you say?” For some, this vote may be hard. But we have a mission and a mandate to be on the right side of history.”
Rep. John Lewis
“When you see something that is not right, not just, not fair, you have a moral obligation to say something”
Doing something about it is something else.

If the horse races were running, and I was a gambler, I'd bet the daily double 1 & 7, and 7 & 1...to win, place and show.

[Lewis was a National hero in the 60s. For the life of me, I cant understand why he went corrupt RAT.]
Frankly, I imagine it paid better. Ask Jesse and Al.

Voting for abortion, homosexuality, participating in treasonous acts. Was there any public repentance or disavowal of his actions? Get real!
