Dem Rep. John Lewis Says He’s “terrified” Racist Tea Party Will Tear Obama Down…

[Ibentoken]

Once again in case anyone missed it.

John Lewis Civil Rights Icon ... and a Liar. RedState

 

[LeftofLeft]

Mabe you can point to where in that quote John Lewis said anything about Tea Party violence?

I'm pointing at YOU scumbag - with your incendiary pictures of DEMOCRATS beating blacks in the 50's and 60's. It is you shitflinger, insinuating that if Republicans win, the democrats will be beating blacks in the streets again.

Under Obama, we see a rise in blacks beating whites in the streets (flash mobs, knockout games). What is Rep. Lewis going to do about that? Most Americans want that torn down.

 

[Uncensored2008]

They look like CONSERVATIVES to me

No they don't - but because you lack even a hint of integrity, you'll make the claim anyway.

The pictures are to show what a great American Patriot John Lewis is......don't you agree?

Lewis suffered at the hands of men like Bull Conner. Now you're a piece of shit, a liar and a scumbag - so you'll start in with lies on how Conner was a conservative who became a Republican. You may know you're lying, you may not - but you don't give a **** because you serve your filthy party, not some bourgeoisie concept like ethics and honesty. Conner was Roosevelt democrat, a huge supporter and promoter of massive government projects and programs, a far left progressive pushing high taxes and an ever bigger government. Like virtually ALL the segregationists, Conner remained a proud democrat until the day he died.

Can you point to the LIBERAL cred of Connor or any of the Southern racists of the day?

I can point to the thousands of LIBERALS who fought for Civil Rights

You are quite stupid, shitflinger

Connor, along with Faubus and most, if not all the segregationists, was strong Roosevelt democrat.

{Although considered a political progressive, Connor's opposition to integration showed early in his political career, and he took a hard line in enforcing the many segregation laws in force in Birmingham. He grabbed national headlines in 1938 by appearing at the meetings of the Southern Conference for Human Welfare and attempting to enforce segregated seating, a move which angered participants and caused First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt, in attendance, to sit in the aisle between the black and white sections and refuse to move}

Colored Reflections - The Sixties Eugene Bull Connor

Hey it's cool, you're a scumbag and pathological liar - which makes you a good democrat.

My apologies to Mr. Lewis, I meant to say you are the one equating the Tea Party to racism. Apparently he doesn't feel that way because as you have pointed out that he never said that.

So you are the one that implied the Tea Party was full of racists. Maybe you need to look at the racism in your own party, there is plenty there, does their racism terrify you or is it just the Tea Party that terrifies you.

I wouldn't be too fast;

Lewis was caught lying about the Tea Party - claiming they had spit on him and called him "******." He didn't grasp the cell phone revolution and the fact that a dozen people had video taped the event - proving his claim a blatant lie. So the fact that Lewis lied and claimed he was called "******" shows that he DID claim the TP is racist.

That Lewis lied to slander enemies of the party further makes shitflinger love Lewis.

So, what is your response to this?

 

[Uncensored2008]

So, what is your response to this?

I block video feeds, so did not watch it.

But I assume it is fabricated shit from one of the hate sites, in an attempt to dig you racist fuckers out of the hole Lewis left you in after his lie was exposed.

 

[AtticusF]

You obviously are forgetting today's Border Klan, and those who want to cut programs that help the poor.

So opposing ever increasing welfare is that same as beating people in the street?

And you wonder why you Communists have no credibility?

There are different ways to harm people -- slavery; KKK; segregated troops; lynchings; then discrimination in employment and education; drafting minorities at higher rates than whites to fight in Vietnam; syphilis "research;" Reagan opens his campaign in Philadelphia, Mississippi; profiling; cutting programs that help the poor like Medicaid; Border Klan; TParty hatred; racist posts right here; Ferguson; on and on. All examples of racism/bigotry -- and mostly from conservative white folks.

LMAO. It's proof you are full of racist BS.

John Lewis is a great American Patriot, the Tea Party is a bunch of frauds wrapping themselves in the flag

As usual, he is 100% correct about what the Republicans have done

He's been making a decent and somewhat honest living all these years but all of a sudden he feels the need to dip into his 1960's well of nobility to try and add respect and prestige to this bull shit.

He reminds me of Pat Boone trying to be all hip and up to date.



But instead of being in on the joke, as Pat Boone is here at the American Music Awards 1997 with Alice Cooper, he IS the joke!

He is knowingly and intentionally lying about the Tea Party and impugning & slandering the good, decent, honest, Americans of all races, genders, political backgrounds, incomes and education levels belonging to a genuine non-violent, non-race based, American Patriotic Grass Roots political movement which is inspired by the Minutemen of New England who threw the King's tea into Boston Harbor to protest unfair taxation by an oppressive Sovereign.

He is lying and he knows it and he is doing it for shameful reasons.

He has gone too far!

He has now joined the likes of Obama and Hillary in putting their Party before the good of their Country.

Sorry, Rep. Lewis.

It is time for you to go!

You have abandoned your mandate.

Go home old man.

Next time I won't be as respectful.

I don't see any racism from the Tea Party - but I sure see plenty of racism from you.

Racism and stupidity - the two ingredients that make up a modern democrat.

How is it "proof" of anything, sploogy?

Now here's where those accounts are called into question:

Though the claims of racist epithets against Lewis and other congressmen drew a lot of media attention, witnesses say they never heard such language and YouTube videos have surfaced that show protesters booing and shouting "Kill the Bill" but not shouting the n-word.

Kay Fischer, a protester from North Carolina, said she was watching the black lawmakers walk by and, like Owens, heard nothing of the sort.

Asked about such claims, Emanuel spokeswoman Mary Petrovic noted that the online videos of the incident are under a minute — and so don't show the entire encounter. She and stood by her boss' account.

"He heard slurs," she said.

There's another oddity about that incident. Cleaver's office initially claimed that a protester was arrested after spitting on him, but that the congressman decided not to press charges.

However, U.S. Capitol Police said the protester was never arrested. He was only detained and put in handcuffs, then released.

Sgt. Kimberly Schneider, spokeswoman for the Capitol Police, told FoxNews.com the individual was released because Cleaver couldn't identify him.

"There were no elements of a crime, and the individual wasn't able to be positively identified," she said. "(Cleaver) was unable to positively identify."

Asked about the Capitol Police account, Petrovic said it's not that Cleaver couldn't identify the suspect. It's that he wouldn't identify the suspect, because the police would have been "obligated" to make an arrest, which he didn't want.

"He was aware of that obligation and so did not make an identification," she said. "He saw who did it and he could have identified that person if necessary. But he chose not to."

As for the initial claim that the the individual was arrested, Petrovic said staff members mistakenly presumed he had been arrested because he was in handcuffs.}

No need for The Tea Party to "tear Obama down".

He's doing quite a nice job, as demonstrated by his performance on 60 Minutes, all by His lonesome.

Saying Obama's performance on 60 Minutes was anything other than perfect is racist.

Of course, the TBag racists say they didn't hear or see anything. What happened is fine with them, always has been. If someone is not violated and lynched in front of their children, it's OK according to conservative TBaggers.

You are very Ill.

 

[AmericanFirst]

Let us see, what exactly does he have to be proud about when someone else gets elected? Oh right he is proud of his racism.

Let us see, the democrats have dominated the government going on 8 years now with arguably a super majority for one year and we see the results.

Notice he doesn't campaign on the accomplishment of Obama but on fear generated over old ladies with tea bags in their hats. Quite amusing, thanks for sharing the morning is a good time for a laugh.

What does John Lewis have to be proud of in the election of the first black president?

John Lewis fought for civil rights and was willing to give up his life for freedom and liberty. The election of a black man as President showed that his struggles for Civil Rights was not in vain

John Lewis is a great American

Oh please.....Your deep seated white guilt is your guide.
Utter nonsense.As far as accomplishments are concerned, Lewis is part of the very same problem about which you libs keep spewing. That is your ever annoying whining about nothing getting done in DC....
Who cares if John Lewis made it to some marches? Who cares if he shouted a bunch of slogans?
Lots of people did those very things and do not seek approval, medals or even recognition.

Lewis did not just "make it"
He was one of the leaders. He willingly subjected himself to a brutal beating in a fight for Liberty and Freedom. The very definition of a patriot

What do TeaTards do to get to call themselves patriots? Wear funny hats?

Oppose the socialist idiots on the left, idiot.
