What I don't like about this is that it employs the leftist tactic of denying the possibility of repentance and redemption.
Even a former KKK member can see the error of his ways.
For instance, this "white ni***r" remark has to be the most broadly misinterpreted statement ever uttered by a democratic party figure.
This is actually an *anti-racist* concept.
When I started kindergarten in Oklahoma in 1956, there was quite a bit of racism around. When I left Oklahoma in 1974, the picture had changed substantially.
One of the things I particularly noticed was guys coming home on leave or getting out of the service, who took exception to the racist remarks of their erstwhile school chums. It seemed that serving with blacks in the military had changed their points of view.
The term "white ni***r" often arose during conversations on this subject, in the context of the serviceman explaining to his old buddies that he had discovered that individual character and behavior were much more important than skin color. They would say that they knew white men who were "ni***rs" and black men who were not.
If you think about it for just a second, it's obvious that if a white person can be a "ni***r", and a black man not be a "ni***r", then skin color is irrelevant in judging a person. That leaves only the content of the person's character as a guide.
I really hate it when the PC hoste malígno assigns some discreditable connotation to an innocent remark by a decent person. I would hate it even worse if my side started doing the same thing.
There was a time in American history when being a member of the democratic party didn't necessarily mean that a person was an utter scumbag.
There was a time in American history when being racially prejudiced didn't necessarily mean that a person was an utter scumbag (Unless you want to argue that Abraham Lincoln was an utter scumbag).
There was a time in American history when owning slaves didn't necessarily mean that a person was an utter scumbag.
Events *and people* have to be understood in historical context. And Byrd is old enough to *have* historical context.
