This is just your prototypical liberal nutjob double standard and hypocrisy. Just look at how the NYtimes did the obituary different b/t Byrd vs. Thurmond. They are both racists, but one was lib, one was GOP. And liberals constantly forget that the KKK was formed as a paramilitary branch of the DEMOCRATIC party. It was the GOP who had as their original platform to abolish slavery.
the libnuts got bent out of shape with Rand Paul’s comments about the Civil Rights act, but they seem to forget that their exalted Byrd voted AGAIST the act in 1964.....so he’s not a racist, right?
So the libnuts defend Byrd, a card carrying member and leader in the KKK. Can you imagine all the hell that would break loose if Palin were to just talk to a KKK member in a grocery store?
NO MORE HYPOCRITES!!!
Bryd didn’t just vote against it he tried to fillibuster to keep it from being brought to the floor.
