There it is!

I was looking for the spin.

They can now “remember” Byrds Klan background, because he’s been a closet republican all along.

Prediction: The dems will finally discover Byrd’s klan history.

The call is being made to the New York Times as we speak... They'll be "oh so surprised"!

A federal judge here in Nashville was formerly Al Gore’s attorney while he was V.P. He tells a story of a time when Clinton was cutting funding for some things, one of which was another “Robert Byrd Courthouse” in WV. He confronted Gore and in so many words told him that the courthouse would be built or there would be hell to pay. The courthouse got its funding. Point is, sheets has a lot of power and he is wont to let someone take it away from him.

I wondered how long it would take before anyone mentioned this.

The beauty of this is that not a soul in WV subscribes to the NYTs, nor will they be surprised and neither will they care.

Bryd is too senile to complain. I bet he’s a hand puppet for Reid/Schumer axis of evil.

Ah yes, the obambi lovers are already calling him on the race card. So much for being an esteemed constitutionalist! He messed with the chosen one and he will pay!!!!!!!

Racist, racist, racist! That is all we’ll hear. I hope they try that one.

I have a dream, that one day I’ll wake and find that obambi’s own party has filed charges of impeachment against the little sob for abuse of power in the form of violation of the Constitution.

I can only hope that they wake up one day to figure out that the same power obambi uses for their agenda is the same power he can use to EJECT them from their power. Maybe someday, and someday soon, they will realize that he is a threat.

I can only hope.

Byrd has already factored in the KKK thing, the old man isn’t stupid, he knows what he is doing.

I’d rather have the crooked old bastard win than obambi. I wish him all the success in the world.

The reality though is that he has no moral high ground, this is all about him getting his share of the spoils and he will be bought off like all the rest.

Suddenly the mainstream media will “remember” his past. Count on it.

And it is an open invitation for us to loudly point out that the Klan is a large and historic arm of the RAT party.

Byrd is just echoing the sentiment of the genuine racists the blacks are always complaining about...DEMOCRATS.

This includes people like George Wallace, Lester Maddox, Bull Connor, James Earl Ray, and other murdering lynchers.

My brother, retired Sgt. Major, U.S. army sent an email response this morning on this:

“SOUNDS LIKE A RAT AND A WEASEL FIGHTING OVER A “PORK” CHOP!

THEY ARE BOTH A JOKE! ...even though Byrd is right.”
