If Byrd had publicly said what Lott said and you were aware of it, would you complain that Byrd make a racist comment and that the dems and the media gave him a pass on it? Be honest.

Byrd has already made overt racist comments and is allowed to keep his seat. That standard should exist for everyone if it exists for one. We can't have the Democrats saying "It's OK for us but not you".
