Rep. John Lewis - ignorant of history.

Reading John Lewis (D-GA) compare McCain to George Wallace is hilarious in it being sad. Lewis seems to forget his own party's history. The Democrat party has:

• Won the Dred Scot decision.


• Seceded 11 states and fought a war partially over keeping their slaves.


• Formed the Ku Klux Klan.


• Created the Jim Crow system.


• Won the Plessy v. Fergussion decision.


• Reformed the Ku Klux Klan.


• Fought desegregation.


• Filibustered the Civil Rights Act.


• Formed the "Separate but equal" system known as Affirmative Action.

Seems Lewis sold his honor for political gain. Not unheard of but still quite sad.

And that's not even touching on Wallace was a Democrat. Lewis may have good intentions but he's on the wrong side in this issue.
