Democratic Sen. Robert Byrd, Ex-Klansman
by Michelle Malkin (March 8, 2001)

Ex-Klansman Robert Byrd, the senior senator from West Virginia, casually used the phrase "white nigger" twice on national TV this weekend. Enraged civil rights groups organized a protest campaign against Sen. Byrd and demanded that he undergo sensitivity training ... not.

The ex-Klansman, you see, is a Democrat. Democrats can join hate groups and utter the ugliest racial slurs and get away with it because they are Democrats. They belong to the party of racial tolerance and understanding. They're paragons of virtue, and the rest of us are bigoted rubes.

The ex-Klansman showed his true colors when asked by Fox News Sunday morning talk show host Tony Snow about the state of race relations in America. Sen. Byrd warned: "There are white niggers. I've seen a lot of white niggers in my time. I'm going to use that word. We just need to work together to make our country a better country, and I'd just as soon quit talking about it so much."

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

In 1942, 24-year-old Byrd joined the Ku Klux Klan (KKK), whose parades in Matoaka, West Virginia, he had witnessed in his childhood. He was unanimously elected Exalted Cyclops, or leader, of his local chapter.[8]

Byrd, in his autobiography, attributed the beginnings of his political career to this incident, although he lamented that they involved the Klan. According to Byrd, a KKK official told him "You have a talent for leadership, Bob... The country needs young men like you in the leadership of the nation." Byrd recalls that "suddenly lights flashed in my mind! Someone important had recognized my abilities! I was only 23 or 24 years old, and the thought of a political career had never really hit me. But strike me that night, it did."[4] He participated in the KKK during World War II, holding the titles Kleagle (recruiter) and Exalted Cyclops [the top officer in the local Klan unit]. He did not serve in the military during the war, working instead as a welder in a Baltimore, Maryland shipyard, where he helped build warships.[citation needed]

Byrd commented on the 1945 controversy about racially integrating the military. Byrd, when he was 28 years old, wrote to segregationist Senator Theodore Bilbo, of Mississippi, vowing never to serve in such a military:

"Rather I should die a thousand times, and see Old Glory trampled in the dirt never to rise again, than to see this beloved land of ours become degraded by race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen from the wilds.[5]"

He had earlier written "I shall never fight in the armed forces with a Negro by my side".[6][7]

From the Washington Post:

"Byrd said in the Dec. 11, 1945, letter -- which would not become public for 42 more years with the publication of a book on blacks in the military during World War II by author Graham Smith -- that he would never fight in the armed forces "with a Negro by my side." Byrd added that, "Rather I should die a thousand times, and see old Glory trampled in the dirt never to rise again, than to see this beloved land of ours become degraded by race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen from the wilds.."..."

"during the general election campaign, Byrd's GOP opponent uncovered a letter Byrd had handwritten to Green, the KKK Imperial Wizard, recommending a friend as a Kleagle and urging promotion of the Klan throughout the country. The letter was dated 1946 -- long after the time Byrd claimed he had lost interest in the Klan. "The Klan is needed today as never before, and I am anxious to see its rebirth here in West Virginia," Byrd wrote, according to newspaper accounts of that period. Byrd makes no mention of the letter in his new book."

Wallace was a democrat. After he pulled his hateful little stint of standing in the schoolhouse door - after the cameras were gone -he walked away. In short he was an opportunists. With rare exception, the MSM of his day made excuses for him...

Wallace is a whole lot more like Obama... both democrats, control freaks, opportunists and two faced liars with a press that covers for them...... t\

[McBuff]

let's see. . .A man in the 1960's stood up for a position that he thought was principled and later was judged wrong by an enlightened society.

Therefore, all people who stand up for a position they believe is principled, will always, therefore, be wrong and will be judged so by an enlightened society.

Now that's some great logic!

"Now, I realize that for some Americans, this is an important issue. And I should say that, personally, I do believe that marriage is between a man and a woman." -- Barack Obama, 2006

"I believe that marriage is a union between a man and a woman ... For me as a christian, it is also a sacred union ... God is in the mix." -- Barack Obama, 2008.

Gov. George Wallace was the protest candidate of his day (Ron Paul without the peacecreeps) because many saw Humphrey and Nixon as two peas in a pod, just like Obama and Milt. My parents, all my close relatives and all their friends and acquaintances voted for him. I was eight at the time, so I couldn't vote.

[JaguarXKE]

It’s on my bucket list to go wiz on his grave before I die.

Romney owns the dude!!!

All Mitt has to do is remind him of this!

"My father and I marched with Martin Luther King Jr. through the streets of Detroit."

This might...

"Black theology will accept only the love of God which participates in the destruction of the white enemy. What we need is the divine love as expressed in Black Power, which is the power of black people to destroy their oppressors here and now by any means at their disposal".--James (Jim) Cone,

WRIGHT: If you're not going to talk about theology in context, if you're not going to talk about liberation theology that came out of the '60s, systematized black liberation theology that started with Jim Cone in 1968 and the writings of Cone and the writings of Dwight Hopkins and the writings of womynist theologians and Asian theologians and Hispanic theologians, then you can't talk about the black value system.

HANNITY: But I'm a — reverend

WRIGHT: Do you know liberation theology, sir?

“Gov. George Wallace was the protest candidate of his day (Ron Paul without the peacecreeps) because many saw Humphrey and Nixon as two peas in a pod, just like Obama and Milt.”

Nobody remembers that. Or rather, nobody really “wants” to remember that. It’s just too untidy.

[ThunderSleeps]

Just wait, as the campaign revs up, and especially if polling shows it is close or Mitt's in the lead... (honest polling that is, not what's reported in the MSM) Then we can expect to see Mitt and his running mate equated to Hitler, the Anti-Christ, Judas, Benededict Arnold, Jack the Ripper, Stalin, Hussein (as in Saddam Hussein, the guy that ruined Iraq, not our hussein, the guy ruining America), Pol-Pot, Dracula (not the cutesy vampires of current film), etc.

Seriously, when it comes to unfounded lies and character assassination we haven't seen anything yet from the left. They know their boy is in a world of hurt 'cause he's eff'd up the economy, run up the national debt and basically hosed over everyone like no-one has ever done before. They can't possibly win a straight up election, so they're going to skew it and try to steal it any way they can.

[BigCinBigD]

I can remember watching Gov. Wallace being shot on tv. That and my mother screaming.

Anderson Cooper and Don Lemon are both homosexuals. Check it out. CNN is now the official GAYNETWORK

[cookcounty]

Speaking of George Wallace, has anyone else besides me had the thought that Bill Maher looks exactly like a dead ringer for an aging George Wallace? Same slicked-back hair (but Maher’s is graying), same boxer’s bashed nose, same beady black eyes, same lips, same height. Freakish.

[ozzymandus]

Don lemon is a stupid, lying, racist hack. Since he’s black, it’s OK.

[dfwgator]

Don hit the Daily Double, he’s black AND gay.

Are you still beating your significant other, Don?

Obama is not a Christian, in spite of his 2008 election claims.

He is on record saying that Jesus is a historical figure but not the only way to salvation.

His mama taught him to be skeptical of organized religion and his own Christian upbringing came from a former muslim named Jeremiah Wright.

He needs to pull the wool over the black community’s collective eyes. He lied to them in 2008 about his stance on homosexuality and abortion. If they vote for him this time, knowing his wide-stance apart from their own beliefs, they will have to do so knowing it violates the church teachings they’ve been brought up with their whole lives.
