In this particular case it would have been better to remember your manners.......if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.

Jerk should have retired when everybody begged him.

I believe Thurmond should have passed in the last cycle as well - but, after all, it's his birthday.
Hope I reach 99. . .

I suppose your hero, Senator Byrd, with his 'white niggers' comments, is more to your liking. Well to each his own, and you are welcome to Byrd.

Last time I looked we were still a country where someone had the right to remain in office or retire as he/she saw fit. BTW, were you demanding your main man resign when it was clear he had broken the law and committed perjury?

Oh, for pete's sake. The longest serving senator turns 99, and your very first comment on the subject is negative and rude. Are you always this disrespectful of old people? Or did someone pee in your Corn Flakes this morning? Or are you just afraid of old age?

Besides, he hasn't "outlived his usefulness". He makes it to his votes, and the people of South Carolina love him. He still has a lot of pull in the Senate, believe it or not, and he's quite simply a living legend. He was a WWII paratrooper, a judge, governer and senator. He's done it all. You just don't throw somebody like that overboard just because he's old and winding down.

Lighten up, and hope that nobody wants to throw you overboard when you've "outlived your usefulness." The old geezer may be 99 and have to be walked around by his aides, but he still remembers the ladies!
