Yes, heard the same on CNN. Was hoping someone would post it. Thanks. I put it on a FR thread, but don’t know how to post an article.

The dem gov will appoint a replacement for 2 years. Just another unelected dem senator ruining our lives.......

[Arthur McGowan]

Pro-Abortion, bogus “defender of the Constitution.”

Fraud, wheeler-dealer, public menace, raider of the Treasury, king of pork, gasbag.

But, nil nisi bonum and all that.

He had the sheet pull over his head one last time.

May God have mercy on his soul, and perpetual light shine on him.

BTW: To those who say we should be respectful of the dead, I say: Not those who have murdered millions of babies, shredded the Constitution, and stolen trillions of dollars. I would no more think of saying nice things about Kennedy, or Byrd, than I would think it my duty to think of something nice to say about Mao, Stalin, Hitler, or Pol Pot. Democrats are not part of the American body politic. They are alien combatants.

When tyrants tremble in their fear
And hear their death knell ringing,
When friends rejoice both far and near
How can I keep from singing?

Good riddings to bad rubbish!

The Order today pays respect to Grand Klugle, brother Robert 'Sheets' Byrd in his final night ride into the sky.

Sheets was born a small, pinched headed, beady eyed penny snatcher who then went on to Congress. Well known for his love of everything Pork and constant verbal flatulence, he was a natural fit and was well loved in the Senate. Said one GOP Senator, "We all do what we can to ruin America, but Bobby did it in his own special way."

For now the echo of obscure and pointless drivel will be slightly but noticeably absent from the Senate. The Klan thanks Bobby for his long support of the New Plantation and expresses our condolences to his family. In one month the usual Klan rally will be in honor of GK Byrd. There will be the usual anti-black, Catholic, Jew, Republican toasts. All Democrats are invited, except Jews, Blacks and Catholics.

The Donks will be pulling quotes from this thread for years.

I have nothing good to say about Robert Byrd. From his days as a leader of the Ku Klux Klan to his years leading the charge for pork in the Senate, he has brought nothing but harm to this country.

But I will couch my criticism in civilized terms, because the man just died. I will not indulge in screeching tirades, and pound my chest louder than my fellow, because that sort of thing is self-destructive.

RIP


Who had the dead pool?
I mean there had to be a dead pool on this guy.

And, from the DUmmies, a predictable wailing... “Even the heavens weep”, “I didn’t think I could cry any more today”, and even a “...he was as intellectually spry as a 20 year old.”

[Haiku Guy]

Do you feel it?

WELLSTONE-APALOOZA!!!!

People all over the world (everybody)
Join hands (join),
Start a love train, love train...

People all over the world (all the world, now)
Join hands (love ride),
Start a love train (love ride), love train...

So, who is the next President Pro Tem of the Senate? Do I still have to wish for the good health of Nancy Pelosi?

[MayflowerMadam]

That’s one down, and 50 to go.

I have already had enough of lionizing the old KKK member. Once again FOX overdoing it.

Wonder if his dog Billy went with him?

I lived in Virginia for a long time. Virginia is home to a whole library of West Virginia jokes - none of them flattering to West Virginia. The fact that the folks of west Virginia continued to elect Bryd was considered proof of the jokes.

NO WAY, just no way any sentaor should serve 50 years. Talk about an illustration of what is wron with the legislative branch today!
