McCain asked to name the Three Wisest People that he knows in Aug - One was Rep. John Lewis!
Edited on Sat Oct-11-08 02:52 PM by FrenchieCat
At Saddleback Church, the Rev. Rick Warren asked John McCain to name “the three wisest people that you know that you would rely on heavily in an administration.”

McCain listed three people: Gen. David Petraeus, Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.), and eBay CEO Meg Whitman.

exact quote: "I think John Lewis. John Lewis was at the Edmund Pettis Bridge, had his skull fractured, continued to serve, continues to have the most optimistic outlook about America. He can teach us all a lot about the meaning of courage and commitment to causes greater than our self- interest."

In otherwords, John Lewis is one of the wisest people he knows according to John McCain himself.

1. Yet McLame disdains everything that Lewis fought for
and gave the go-ahead to his au pair to stir up the same mobs who cracked open Lewis' skull! :crazy:

Way to go McLame!!! :applause: :sarcasm:
