Byrd would say: "Back in muh day we knew how to handle uppity nigresses."

[Alex Marko]

oh ..imagine that....a liberal democrat shunning her morals for greed....oh geez..big surprise

[Grendel9]

VBG!

It will be a cold day in hell before I believe that anything other than a insult was intended by putting this man in charge of anything having to do with the career path of a minority! Any party with the slightest semblance of decency would take into consideration the appearance of this act.

[DTogo]

Yeah, and I bet Pelosi had the same this to say about Trent Lott after Srom Thurman's birthday party a few years back. The old Liberal double standard.

[Always Right]

Well as long as he is pro-abortion and anti-war he can get away with anything. Byrd could probably show up in full KKK costume to Condi's hearing, and little would be said.

[LRS]

"I don't think that whatever Sen. Byrd is doing has anything to do with his sad past," Pelosi told WWRL...

Well, Nancy, do you think it has everything to do with his (and your) pathetic present?

[BibChr]

To say this is a tone-deaf move is sheer flattery.

However, sadly, the MSM will never take it up, as they would if the parties were reversed. NEVER.

Maybe the blogs?

"Sen. Byrd was also a fierce opponent of desegregating the military, complaining in one letter ."I should rather die a thousand times and see old glory trampled in the dirt never to rise again than see this beloved land of ours become degraded by race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen of the wilds."

And despite that, those idiotic citizens keep sending
him back to the Senate!

[Sacajaweau]

How doew someone like Byrd ever get elected? It leaves me breathless.

[Arpege92]

Condi can hold her head up high and be proud of who she is and where's she's going. She didn't allow the likes of Robert Byrd get in the way of her future.

[Calpernia]

How is Byrd a SENATOR?

::I found another bird::

[skinkinthegrass]

...looks like the 'RATs are really showing thier true colors...sheets today. ..where's Jesse "I Have a Scheme" Jackson, still "carrying water/lifting that bale" for the rats? :/

[lonestar]

The old Liberal double standard.

Without "double," most Liberals have no standards.

I'm still trying to figure out the use of the word "assault" in the headline.

[Calpernia]

I tried to write a blog about Dr. Rice.

It didn't get much traffic or commentary

>>>How doew someone like Byrd ever get elected? It leaves me breathless.

Maybe he is Selected vs. Elected?

Look at all the articles coming out on voter fraud.

I'm trying to figure out the use of the word "ex" in the title. Byrd looks like he's still active to me.

This stinks so bad, but I'm wondering where the NAACP is on this. Just imagine if roles were reversed and Trent Lott stepped up to stall a black Democrat's nomination to a cabinet position. Its just so hypocritical and will hardly be news in the media's eye.
