I understand that nobody’s perfect, but Klan membership is unforgivable.

It’s unforgiveable if forgiveness wasn’t asked for. Apparently Byrd apologized on more than one occasion, but he didn’t truly repent. Staying in the Democrats’ Party and trying to turn us into a socialist nation/country-sized plantation was not the way to show true remorse.

I'd actually forgive Klan mambership for someone that old. It's quite possible for a weak kid back then to get swept-up. Die-hard Klan recruiter who established his own chapter is an entirely different matter.

Actually, after having read the TUCC's (Wright's church) 'about us' page, and seen excerpts of some of Wright's 'sermons' -- I'd call being a 20 year member of that 'church' more unforgivable for someone who sought to be a government official in this Country....

Well, not if your a Democrat. You obviously haven’t been paying attention.

Byrd was more than a member . . . he was a senior recruiter.
