"An incredibly smart man? Who are you listening to? Byrd is a complete moron."
What has he done?
Have you ever watched him on CSPAN? He rants incoherently about President Bush and the war. I've never heard him say anything remotely intelligent.
I don't know whether to help you, laugh at you, or just ignore you. SHIRLEY you jest regarding Byrd??!!?? There is not enough bandwith in the world to list the problem with Robert Byrd. Of course, there is not enough bandwith in the world to contain ONE of Byrd's floor speeches. There is problem number one with byrd.
Do a search for "Byrd" in FR archives and enjoy the fun education regarding "the conscience of the senate."
