Funny how a democrat who was the only member of the senate to have been a KKK member in good standing, is foundly remembered...yet Strom Thurmond was called a racists-too-old-SOB because he once opposed some civil rights laws.

While Al Gore SR voted AGAINST the Civil Rights Act of 1965, as did a MAJORITY of democrats...while Joe Kennedy Sr was a vocal supporter of Hitler...but they and their children are idolized.

He is a shining example of everything that is wrong with Congress. He’ll go down in history all right.

It’s almost like everything the Dims stand for, is the direct opposite of what they really stand for. In the end, it’s only about accumulating power. They have no real agenda. It’s all about obfuscation, lies, deceit, and creating turmoil in order to advance themselves.

It’s a sorry day when Townhall uses the term “All American” to describe the likes of Robert Byrd.

Yes, Mary. Conservatives would point out membership in such organizations, except that it’s never happened to my knowledge. Tell me who and what?

By-the-way, the KKK was founded as the political action wing of the Democrat Party.

Townhall didn't write the article. Michael Barone Barone did. The same article btw is also in The Examiner

Perhaps you need to complain to the author

Wow...that thief stole 3.3 billion dollars from hard-working taxpayers to pay off his cronies.

And they say Capone was a crook...

Obama and Kagan can’t be each others’ sex kittens, they both suffer from same-sex disorder!

Okay. You’re correct. However, Townhall published the article, so my complaint stands.

Do you agree with Barone? What do you think of Byrd?

Wasn’t asking you to correct it. Of course, you can’t. I asked if you agreed with Barone’s assessment, and what your personal thoughts on Byrd are.

Thanks for posting it.
