I will leave it to others who knew him better to eulogize him. But what I knew I deeply respected. The giants are passing from the earth. May the memory of the warriors who have gone before us be forever cherished in our midst.

Of such was Representative John L. Lewis.

The shoes he wore will never be filled. Seriously, a lot of history is associated with this man. And he will be sorely missed.

Son, your mother says I have to hang you. Personally I don't think this is a capital offense. But if I don't hang you, she's gonna hang me and frankly, I'm not the one in trouble. —cthia's father. Incident in ? Axiom of Common Sense

It's a shame that Marco Rubio mistook Elijah Cummings for John Lewis. Which made his comment seem disingenuous. How embarrassing. I suppose Blacks look the same to him.

Another Republican senator made the same mistake...McConnell maybe?

One of them blamed a staffer, which may be true.
