I always wanted to do a documentary where I sat outside the Kennedy Compound for a month and counted the number of people of color who visited it (not including staff). I assume the number would be ZERO. Then, I'd like to ask Teddy why no minorities are invited to the compound?

I'm sure liberal Hollywood would just eat it up, right? WRONG.

[GianniV]

Is that dude in the cowboy hat none other than Charlie Wilson, former party animal and US representative from Texas??

[Simcha7]

May I please ask...

How did Mr. John Heinz Kerry VOTE, did he vote for or against Dr. Rice yesterday?

I was watching the vote on C-SPAN, and I thought Flip-Flop Kerry voted Nay?

I could be wrong though, he may have Voted for Dr. Rice before he Voted against her.

OY VEY.

[GianniV]

Um - I'm from Illinos and Durbin was easily re-elected in '02. Who's going to oust him? There are very few good Republicans in Illinois (and I'm not including RINOs).

[television is just wrong]

It's the same reason of racism for not wanting illegal aliens in this country. THEY ARE RACIST!!!

[Fruitbat]

"Sheets" Byrd was a grand dragon, or whatever he was, in the KKK. No news here!

[FreedomNeocon]

RACISTS (The 'American' Race) ;)

[an amused spectator]

I doubt these people took color of skin into account.

Robert "Sheets" Byrd was once a member of the KKK. He filibustered the landmark 1964 Civil Rights Act – supported by a majority of those ‘mean-spirited’ Republicans – for more than 14 hours. Byrd is the only senator to vote against both black Supreme Court justice nominees — Thurgood Marshall and Clarence Thomas.

In 1947, he [Robert Byrd] criticized the military's proposed integration. In a letter to segregationist senator Theodore Bilbo (D, Miss.), Byrd said he would "never submit to fight beneath the banner [the American flag] with a Negro by my side. Rather I should die a thousand times, and see Old Glory trampled in the dirt never to rise again, than to see this beloved land of ours become degraded by race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen from the wilds."

Nah - I doubt that "Sheets" even noticed the color of Condi's skin... ;-)

[FreedomNeocon]

Democrats are only racists when BUSH is anti-racist.

The people have no connection with reality. No thougth on topic, just "is it against BUSH"

Really... they are defective and suffer from some type of psycosis.

I pity the fools. (MR.T)

[Ethan_Allen1777]

Hey where is Joe "Yah suh massa boss man" Biden?

[Dazedcat]

I agree. This is what liberal democrats do when you disagree with them or their views.....

I'm glad you pointed this out.

Whew! Right On Senator,

Too many amerikkkans consider this enlightened gentleman an old gas-bag.

To me this "Byrd" is an EAGLE among buzzards!

Byrd is such a racist! (just kidding folks, but I'm sure you can find that comment at Freeperville) Everyone can see how CondoLIEzzALOT is obviously the most overqualified candidate for Sec of State - has proven that the truth doesn't matter, that failure is success, that death and destruction are magnificent human positives, and that she most obviously knows how to give a great hummer!

That's foreign policy baby! You go girl - go straight to hell with the rest of the bushit regime.

========================

The one poster on this Lefty website who actually seems to know about the sordid history of "Sheets" doesn't seem to care...

The rest of the posters appear to be clueless products of the American NonEducation system...

[wmichgrad]

So are the other 12 members of the KKK as well?

Tell me where your logic is going.

[wmichgrad]

Nowhere. I think I misunderstood the point of your previous post. Please ignore.

[Chi-Town Lady]

I called little Dicky Durbin's office today and told them that they were doing nothing but making fools out of the demoncrats and that I was embarrassed and appalled that he would vote against her nomination. Not that he gives a hoot but it made me feel better.

"I couldn't believe that Evan Bayh did this..."

I can't believe it either.

[Gypssy]

I'm very surprised at Evan Bayh. I actually liked him. Now, I'm down to have no one in the Democratic party that I can respect.

[Blowtorch]

Was the political lynching of Clarence Thomas racist? Or do you not believe that either? I believe race is a factor here, but not necessarily racism.
