John Lewis didn’t lie when he said he’d never skipped a presidential inauguration as a sitting member of Congress.

His staff clarified the mixup on Tuesday, when they told Washington Post’s Glenn Kessler the 76-year-old had just forgotten.

We already have too many addle-brained politicians in DC. This one needs to resign, go home, and check himself in to a facility. That is, if he truly “forgot”. Personally, I believe he’s lying his ass off.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Gotta love it when Democrats “Misremember” things/sarc

[Kudsman]

Why all the surprise? He’s a Democrat. They are collectively allergic to truth telling.

[Steely Tom]

Another Democrat “mix-up.”

[IVAXMAN]

Then he needs to resign if he is that senile.

I guess 16 years is almost 20. LOL Common Core math.

RATspeak...round up

“That was almost 20 years ago.”

Math is hard.

RED FLAG!!! He lied, out and out LIED...now he’s trying to cover it up...sorry, to late, it’s out there and it isn’t going to go anywhere but back in his face...

[doosee]

I heard NY Congressman Nadler saying the wont go either. Now that is a real sacrifice there. The fat slob would have had so many free buffets to hit in DC. I bet when they heard that, the futures market on chicken wings went down.

Boy, does this sound familiar. From wiki:

“In January 2001, Lewis boycotted the Inauguration of George W. Bush by staying in his Atlanta district. He did not attend the swearing-in because he didn’t believe Bush was the true elected president.[39]”

[ex91B10]

Nah...it’s ‘cause of the box-on-the-head trauma in Selma.

[Gator113]

He lied then and he’s lying now. He has a long history of lying. John Lewis is unfit to hold Office.

[KeyLargo]

Yeah, right.

Typical 'Selective Memory' of a habitual liar.

[1Old Pro]

The guy must be a stupid idiot, one doesn’t “forget” attendance at a Presidential inauguration.

[eyedigress]

Go away Lewis, you stupid racist son of a bitch.

[thoughtomator]

The guy couldn’t be making a better case that he’s been in office too long.

“In January 2001, Lewis boycotted the Inauguration of George W. Bush by staying in his Atlanta district. He did not attend the swearing-in because he didn’t believe Bush was the true elected president.[39]”

Lewis is a useful idiot
