Sign Petition: Senator Robert Byrd (D-WV) must Step Aside

StopDemocrats.com is asking for Senator Robert Byrd (D-WV) to Step Aside.

The petition reads:
Recent comments by Senator Trent Lott (R-MS) involving Senator Strom Thurmond's 1948 presidential candidacy supporting segregation have created a controversy that may force the Senator to step aside as leader of the Senate Republicans. This petition asks that the same standards be applied to Senator Robert Byrd (D-WV) ,who is the current President pro tempore of the US Senate, and demands that he resign from any leadership post in the 108th Congress for saying the following racist comments on National television 21 months ago. "My old mom told me, 'Robert, you can't go to heaven if you hate anybody.' We practice that," the senator recalled. "There are white niggers. I've seen a lot of white niggers in my time-I'm going to use that word."
America does not need to have a Senator like Robert Byrd as a leader in the US Senate or even as the Ranking member of a committee.
Sign the Petition

If you sign it means that you are offended that certain people in government who work for US are held to a higher standard than others who also work for US.

I would like to know the names of all those who applauded Trent when he made the remarks about Strom, LOL!
I wonder if there were any Rats in attendance who applauded the remarks? Wouldn't that be something!!
