...and Jeremiah Wright doesn’t?.....William Ayers doesn’t?...Michelle Obama doesn’t?... Okay.
Isn’t this the Rat McCain said he admired? lol! No good deed goes unpunished John! You deserve it for being nice to Rats!
Hello, hello, is that you Kenneth? You on patrol of the slave ship routes looking to beat off the sharks ...
This guy is a loon, how else do you describe his membership in the party of segregation and the kKK.
I see, it's the tone Lewis objects to.
Not surprising he couldn't come up with any specifics.
Gee, John...all those folks you thought were your friends. The Democrats, the media—they don’t know you or own you. All you’ve got left are those you won’t know or own.
Father says my three-year-old self was perched on his shoulder at an MLK speech in ‘67.
All bow before me. I’m a Civil Rights Icon.
I hate to say it, neverdem, but these are John McCain’s “chickens coming home to roost.”
After all the years of being the maverick and Mr. Compromiser (Gang of 13; McCain-Feingold; etc. etc.), now he finds his esteemed colleagues across the aisle dropping him like a brick when he needs at least their understanding and acknowledgement, if not support.
This is one frustrating campaign.
I’d like to ask Senator McCain: “Why did you run? Why didn’t you sit out of the primaries and allow some other Republican aspirant who has some **nads to give this a shot and to go after either Obama or Hillary. You, Sir, obviously don’t have the fire in your belly...” Or something like that. What a disgusting campaign. This is worst than watching the stock market meltdown day after day... or the Cubs play in the post season... Disgusting.
Civil rights icon my rear. Dr. King he is not. Bet your bottom dollar that the MSM would never refer to Clarence Thomas as a civil rights icon. Or anyone who fights for civil rights issues that still matter (in the sense that de jure racism was settled more than forty years ago), like gun rights or property rights.

“George Wallace never threw a bomb,”
Ayers, on the other hand...
John Lewis marched at Selma during the voting rights march there, and was beaten there along with the other marchers. He was a key member of SNCC, the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee, during the civil rights movement. He has been considered an icon because of that.
Ayers on the other hand, did set off bombs. Good point.
“Civil rights icon says McCain stirs hate “
Icon, my ass! Lewis is a race-baiting piece of pond scum who has lived on hating whitey and isn’t worthy of breathing good men’s air. If ever the “N” word applied, he is it!
showin the thug thizzle, jus’ doin his thang. Icon as in I con the voters. FH
It would appear the entire Democrat Party has subscribed to “Rules for Radicals”, by Saul Alinsky.
John, the next time you “reach across the aisle” you won’t only get burned, you’ll get broiled!
Some people never learn.
Lewis isn’t saying a thing that 99% of the black Democratic voters in the Country don’t already believe.
Uh John..wasn’t George Wallace a ....um...a...democRAT?
Why, yes, I believe George Wallace was a democRAT..
John, have you no sense of irony? God knows, John, you have no sense of shame.
