It appears the Democratic Klansman from West Virginia might be down for the count. I wonder if Oboma will acknowledge him in death, since he was a hood & robe wearing Cross burner.
Just sayin.

Of course he will. That clan stuff; which he turned away from long before you were born, maybe before your grandfather was born, is really old news. Byrd is really an old bird.

Good riddance. Now they can get a fresh face to replace him.

Byrd's Klan activities were mentioned toward the end of the NYT obit. When Strom Thurman died, the Times mentioned the racial angle in its headline ("Strom Thurman, foe of integration, has died" or something pretty close).

Byrd was also remembered for filibustering the Civil Rights Bill. It's amazing he was able to survive in the political world, a testament to his campaigning prowess.

I hope it was a miserable and painful end.

I hope it was a miserable and painful end. Ya, I was thinking the same thing. Like maybe the last 2 faces he ever saw before expiring were Maxine Waters and Nancy Pelosi.

That was awesome. A Black man speaking to honor a Klansman at his funeral. What does Obama think? That a young white kid from the south can join the Klan out of high school, then get out and not be a Klansman for the rest of his life? Is the Ku Klux Klan like the Peace Corp now? Join the Klan, see the world? Then grow up and get a job? LMFAO! Obama is a Bafoon. Did you catch who spoke at the funeral?

Ya. I thought for sure because Obama said his Presidency would not be Political, that he could resist pandering to the Klan. But I guess when you are from Chicago, a vote is a vote. I am enjoying the whole circus show that is Obama mania. Lots of Clowns, Klansmen, and Bloyogovich. Priceless.
