Reps. John Lewis (D-GA) and Andre Carson (D-IN), both members of the Congressional Black Caucus, say that a group of protesters hollered at them and called them the N-word.

"They were just shouting. Harassing," Lewis said. "People being downright mean."

[caww]

That's why they keep on extending unemployment benefits.

[UnwashedPeasant]

The message:

Any lawmaker who votes against Health Care “Reform” is a racist.

[Hillbillary]

We're selling healthcare here, not watermelons!

[eXe]

My first response is “Prove it”, where is the video?

Secondly, they should be thankful that’s ALL they are hurling at them.

[AliVeritas]

Thanks to all who came from Jim Jordan who twitted this pic from inside:

[MestaMachine]

That was very thoughtful of you. pardon me while I have a seizure. LOL

[MestaMachine]

It ain’t on there. It did NOT happen. The CNN babette lied. There is NO video that backs up this claim. Other reporters were there and said it didn’t happen.

[ncalburt]

I actually talked to this Chad.

I asked him for proof and he said nothing.
I warned him that slander and smearing of private citizens and groups results in lawsuits .

He hung up.

[VRW Conspirator]

Where’s the proof?

It's Alinsky! (paraphased) It is not facts or evidence that matters; it is the seriousness of the accusation.

[goat granny]

Even with proof, who cares. They deserve worse than that for what they are trying to do to the citizens of this country....Democrats yelling racist is so 1990’s...meaningless word....too thin skinned politicans, sticks and stones is what Ilearned as a child...damn hard to offend me, I don’t give people that power...Washington is full of whinning wussies....

[spodefly]

If this had actually happened there would be 50 videos on YouTube already.

Lewis is a liar.

[jazminerose]

I’ve been angry many times in my life, but this is different—I’ve never felt so completely abused by my own government, the people I work my tail off to finance.

There is only one way to deal with an abuser—end the relationship. That process will commence in November.

[jazminerose]

As of this moment, they can’t possibly have the votes. If they did, Peelousy would drag this thing to the floor immediately.

[norton]

"What is wrong with nit wits?"

I was thinking "nut cases".

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

I suggest that the incident was pertrated by a union agitator, either Walmart employee or not.

Nope. 16 year old teenager, who was arrested.

[Texas Songwriter]

Does this remind anyone of the democrat dirty tricks they unveil a day or two before election. We have watched the Teaparty people act like gentlemen for over a year now. The only sh*t we have seen has been the left biting off the finger of an elderly conservative man, and the SEIU thugs beating a black man. All of that is on film.

This is Matthews type dirty tricks. Screw him.

I have met John Lewis and he seems to be a very nice person. He is on the wrong side of most issues, but he is decent in his behavior. I don't believe anyone on the conservative side would, without provocation, say what is reported.

[zzeeman]

Alinsky tactic pure and simple.

Absolutely!! Right out of the playbook; and of course, media lapdogs can't wait to broadcast as often and as loudly as they can.

[dforest]

What did they yell? Why do ya’ll hate whitey?
