WOW! Rep. John Lewis has just unmasked the KKK gathering last week

[Hutzpa]

on their assault on voter ID Laws.

Very breath taking, overwhelming and emotional.

I hope someone can post the video later.

1. Such a great man.

The republicans can not come near this man's decency and commitment to justice.

2. Absolutely

all they have is hate, division, hate.

3. That was incredibly uplifting. John L. did an awesome job on voter suppression

like no one else could, given his personal history in the 60s with poll taxes,
and other bizarre obstacles in the deep South to suppress the black vote,
which he fought to change, and got physically beaten to a pulp trying to
oppose these gross injustices.

He's a gem.

I DO wish however that MORE speakers shed a bright light for ALL to see
exposing the GOP' egregious dirty tricks at the polls.

Here's a link to email or phone UCS if anyone else would like to school American Cancer Society
on this issue.

4. I am sorry I missed that. I posted his smack down of a GOP legislator a while back who was trying

To defund the Voting Rights Act. The little klanner backed off, but then later another GOP running against Lewis tried to say he was too old to be in the legislature. This from the party that had to wheel in a drooling Storm Thurmond for years to keep their majority. What a bunch of KKKlowns, we can't get them get away with this.
