John Lewis
Last of the great civil rights icons.
from 2016 but still relevant: Rep. John Lewis Is Not to Be Trifled With | News | MTV

It's not enough to bash in heads, you've got to bash in minds
soon I discovered that this rock thing was true
Jerry Lee Lewis was the devil
Jesus was an architect previous to his career as a prophet
All of a sudden i found myself in love with the world
And so there was only one thing I could do
Was ding a ding dang my dang along ling long - Jesus Built my Hotrod Ministry
Live every week like it's Shark Week! - Tracey Jordan
Just a monkey in a long line of kings. - Matthew Good
If "elitist" just means "not the dumbest motherfucker in the room", I'll be an elitist! - Get Your War On
*not an actual doctor

Re: The "distinguished American" Rush
Rush Limbaugh was a friend of humanity.
Rush Limbaugh used to mock people who died of AIDS. Fuck him
