We report; you decide. Please excuse me if this is a duplicate/multiple post. I did a FR search and didn't find it. Pretty interesting! Does sound a tad bit bitter, however. Sheeeeeesh.

The blacker the berry the sweeter the juice. Ol Strom had good taste.

Thurmond was almost certainly her father

"Almost Certainly?" What the heck does that mean? Was he "ALMOST" her father or was he ?CERTAINLY" her father? Was her mom "KINDA PREGNANT" or was she "REALLY PREGNANT?"

... was almost certainly...

This is why it isn't making the headlines, because it is not a certainty. Such rumor-mongering is best left to the tabloids. Interesting that the author refuses to accept the alleged daughter's veracity when she says that they are family friends. Could it be that a black mature woman could not be counted on to tell the truth? Foreshame.

Can't wait for Diane McWhorter's commentary after KKK Byrd's demise.

Pity the poor sap who subsequently and diligently searches for "skeleton" (as in "Strom's Skeleton", the actual title on the source article) to avoid duplicating this thread...

Is Robin Quivers related to Strom Thurmond? Howard Stern needs to ask her that.

Could this story be "payback" for the recent story on the Kennedy's Jr.? More scandalizing the dead who cannot defend themselves? Do we retaliate by again bringing up the "Clinton fathered a black boy" story?

The reason the South is the most interesting region in the country is that it's the only place where the psychic landscape is parceled out equally among Marx, Freud, and God. ... The Marx part of Thurmond's story is the best-known: The States Rights Party ("Dixiecrat" was the coinage of a waggish newspaper editor) that drafted him for president in 1948 was a top-down junta of oligarchs who had been plotting their bolt from the New Deal Democratic Party since 1941

States Rights = Marxism? This author's conclusions are extemely light on facts.

What is with these liberal goofs? First they totally trash John and Caroline Kennedy with information that is best left unsaid since they are dead and can't defend themselves, and now they trash Strom.

The liberal media and writers are probably the vilest things I've run into yet. They not only can't write without resorting to innuendo and unsubstantiated rumors, but take pride in their obvious nastiness.

Whatever the facts and opinions expressed, she sure sounds like a nasty person. Note that this is from Slate Magazine, not MSN itself (even though they're the owner, it's good to be specific.)

Thurmond's second bride, young enough at 22 to be the 66-year-old senator's granddaughter, was a former Miss South Carolina.

This is more interesting than a possible love child. 22.... 66.... perv. Lucky perv.

"ALMOST certainly" + ladies "he's a family friend" = this article is a load of crap!
