He was a democrat which means he was a piece of shite. Same goes for anyone who votes democrat. There is no other way to describe the treasonous rats

Of all the MLK entourage guys, he was probably the most agreeable. That's a heavily sliding scale though.

He's was fraud and a swindler who has been lionized because he hung out with MLK. He used his position and power to enrich himself and his allies, just like Maxine Waters and Elijah Cummings.

Theres a lot of libs/progs that seem to like Che Guevara (at least, they wear t-shirts with his face on them all the time) and I suspect some Cubans still like him.

I don't and I don't think it makes me a bad person.

I feel the same way about Obama...I hate the traitorous piece of shite.

I live here in Georgia about thirty miles ENE of Atlanta. I had no love for Lewis, nor do I think much of Hank Johnson. However, Lewis served his constituents well. He fully represented the leftist views of his district. Lewis was a symptom of the disease that has infected Atlanta and many other large cities for decades.

My prayers are with his family. I will not bring myself low enough to tromp on a man's memory while his family is going through the loss of their loved one.

However, just as Lewis refused to attend the Bush and Trump inaugurations, I refuse to attend his funeral.

I have never liked the idea of hating someone (for just cause) while living, and then pretending to honor them when they die.

Rush Limbaugh avoided the dilemma by merely saying, "Ladies and Gentlemen, today (name of left winger) assumed room temperature."
Then he went on with the show.

Regardless of your political beliefs....ask yourself this. Would you have had the courage to walk across that bridge?

I didn’t agree with the man politically or with his desired vision of the country, but make no mistake much of what he took part in with MLK took courage.

---

His inability to make a difference from a position of power and influence over the past 50 years far outweigh his crossing of that bridge. As it turns out, it was just a symbolic gesture, a spark, that allowed them do whatever they wanted in the urban areas they've controlled ever since.

If only we could get about 10 million more people to visit the Rant and read this. If you look at their stance toward abortion alone, you realize they're truly evil people.

well, most that dont like him is due to his fight for civil rights. most racist whites dont care when any type of black leader dies

Lewis didn't like white people. He spent most of his life UNJUSTLY accusing white people and white politicians of vile things. He used a methodology of Lies to consolidate and maintain his political power and the political power of the US Democratic Party. I challenge you to survey his congressional district and tell us about the tangible improvements that he provided with his "leadership."

I love his courage during the Civil Rights Era when the Republican Party was his friend and the Democratic Party of the South was his enemy. But we are not judged well in this life if we are virtuous during our 20s and 30s and then lack virtue for the remainder of our lives.

Some think that Lewis "redeemed his Soul" and was "Saved for all time" for his actions as a young man. I don't believe that. I believe that if you are virtuous as a young man, but lack virtue as an old man -- the judgment is that you are not virtuous. Lewis should have persisted in his virtuosity. He did not, and . . . THIS is his Eulogy. The real Eulogy. NOT the fake ones that we have recently heard.
