"...we come to celebrate and give thanks for the remarkable life of J. William Fulbright, a life that changed our country and our world forever, and for the better. In the work he did, the words he spoke and the life he lived, Bill Fulbright stood against the 20th century's most destructive forces and fought to advance its brightest hopes."

Senator Fulbright signed the Southern Manifesto and voted against the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Voting Rights Act of 1965.

Seems ole Fritz is still with us. 96 years old.

People always refer to Byrd with the Clintons.

But rabid racist Fulbright was Clinton’s actual “mentor” and was praised effusively by Hillary.

The Clintons have NEVER renounced themselves for the intimate relationship with Fulbright.

[TakebackGOP]

And the media gave him a pass.

[McGarrett]

We Arkansas republicans called him “Comrade Fulbrightski.”

[Yaelle]

Fulbright’s fine but TRUMP’s a racist. Tells you all you need to know.

[shotgun]

So he’s still “consuming”?

He made that speech when he was a Senator where he said “there’s too much consuming going on out there...”

[Sgt_Schultze]

Is the racist Fulbright scholarship still offered?
