To be shamed requires a certain amount of conscience, ethics, compassion.

It shows the generous big hearted spirit of Mr. Lewis that he believes Rs can be shamed. He himself would be ashamed if he could not attend such an event for some reason.

âThe article noted that Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) and Rep. Martha Roby (R-AL) co-sponsored the event and encouraged at least 23 other GOPers to join them.â
What an ingenious way to claim theyâre interested while making no public showing.

To experience shame you must have a conscience, to have a conscience you have to have empathy, to have empathy you must recognize that other beings are people. The Eliminationists donât believe weâre people.

John Lewis is a real American hero. His Republican colleagues are apparently real American cowards.

The Truly Guilty donât come to such things. That is why they are named as such. On the other hand, those who have some contrition DO try, often receiving mixed resultsâŚ
Malcolm X was once at a college campus delivering a scathing indictment on racism. The audience was moved by it. Malcolm was aware of this as well. Afterward, a blond coed came to him nearly in tears from his words and the events went thuslyâŚ
âAnyway, Iâd never seen anyone I ever spoke before more affected than this little white college girl. She demanded, right up in my face, âDonât you believe there are any good white people?â I didnât want to hurt her feelings. I told her, âPeopleâs deeds I believe in, MIssânot their words,â âWhat can I DO?â she exclaimed. I told her, âNothingâ. She burst out crying, and ran out and up Lenox Avenue and caught a taxi.â
TeaBagg Nation has made racism acceptable. I suspect that the majority of the population would understand Lewisâ concern. But a large swath of America has no such feelingsâand this group of people, I am afraid, are extremely engaged, politically.

note to congr lewis ⌠the gop is incapable of shame â esp when it comes to issues of civil rights. and frankly, i suspect his highlighting the black caucus disappointment will result in a great infusion of donations from their supporters.

The GOP leaders donât âdoâ shameâŚ
Give the GOP a break. It has been a tough half century since Selma that has turned them from the Party of Lincoln to the Party of Limbaugh, and they were just getting over the Emancipation Proclamation when Selma happened.
