Limbaugh asks -- Let's compare the number of Robert Byrd "Memorials" to Saddam Hussein "Memorials."

KFI (AM 640) n Los Angeles -- 9 May 2003 | 9 May 2003 | Rush Limbaugh -- on his radio show

[thinktwice]

Rush thinks the number of "memorials" to Robert Byrd in West Virginin is going to be a "close call" when compared to the number of Saddam "memorials" in Iraq.

Notice that the picture in reply #19 is nothing more than a glorified parking garage.

[breakem]

mountaineers will still be voting for him 50 years after he's dead. The king of pork

[Sonny M]

You forgot the Robert C. Byrd tree O' Lynching, for his outstanding leadership in getting rid of them pesky rabble rouser negros.

[Sonny M]

I'm keeping hope alive.

[Wondervixen]

I was going to mention this one. Nice pic! My co-author partner (for the book we're writing) and I use the parking garage in this building frequently on trips into Wheeling. The people of this town are just fabulous.

Too bad the building's named for a blithering old fool.

If you will take the time to peruse the Citizens Against Government Waste $22.5 Billion in Pork Report for 2003 , you will find the following entries for the old Kluxer, Robert Byrd.

$7,115,000 for projects in the state of then-Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Robert Byrd (D-W.Va.)

$75,872,000 for projects in the state of then-Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Robert Byrd (D-W.Va.)

$13,589,000 added by the Senate for projects in the state of then-Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Robert Byrd (D-W.Va.)

$34,900,000 added in conference for projects in the state of then-Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Robert Byrd (D-W.Va.)

$20,915,000 added by the Senate for projects in the state of then-Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Robert Byrd (D-W.Va.)

$51,950,000 added by the Senate for projects in the state of then-Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Robert Byrd (D-W.Va.)

$39,913,000 for projects in the state of then-Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Robert Byrd (D-W.Va.)

The total in pork extracted from the paychecks of working class Americans, by this old geezer amounts to $244,244,000. (just during the current session of Congress)

While it's really not a memorial...yet, someone calling into Hannity's radio show was wondering how much tax payer's money was used to renovate Byrd's Capitol Hill office. Doesn't he have a replica of the Oval Office or something like that?

[Wiggins]

And I thought the "Javits Center" was overkill.
