Sheets Byrd Speaking on C-SPAN 2 - He's the "Ramblin Man"

C-Span 2 ^

Any time this man speaks, it's always worth watching if for no other reason than it's great comedy.

He's spoken for 5 minutes and has covered the fact that he has been in the Senate for 53 years. He's the equivalent of a Democratic sponsored quorum call.

Sheets reminds me of Dick Tracy's old nemisis, Mumbles.

You've got to love how he spends 100% of the time allocated for debating Prescilla Owens, complaining how they don't have enough time to debate Prescilla Owens.

What a disgrace the Democrat party has become. However, the media and many of the voters, including some the Republicans are just as stupid.

Byrd is a hypocrite, but the Pubs are weak and will no doubt be tricked into withdrawing from the option. Hillary wins again.

That's going back a few years.

FYI - it was replayed over the weekend on SNL (NBC)

You're right, he's rare entertainment. The last time I tuned in on his remarks about the Priscilla Owen nomination he was discussing what went on during the pre-Civil War administration of John Tyler. The old buffoon can actually be rather interesting.
