the Republican party's decision yesterday to "delay" the renewal of the Voting Rights Act has not a darn thing to do with objections of the Republican's white sheets caucus.

Wow, this nutcase refers to the KKK at least 3 times in this article; the only ex-KKK member I know of in Congress is U.S. Senator Robert "Sheets" Byrd, Democrat from West Virginia.

Oh, the irony of it all :-)

He is the most senior DEMONICrat in the Senate. On a lighter note, the deceased Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall who was black, would say to Senator Byrd when he had occasion to bump into him, "Whats shaking sheets?" I did not care for many of Marshall's rulings, but I did love his sense of humor.
