[Enterprise]

"Mr.Gavin, did Senator Byrd participate in the lynchings of any blacks while he was a member of the KKK?

Mr. Gavin, "I don't know, but I'll check and get back to you on that."

(The script was made up by me, but I wish it had happened.)

[plain talk]

Mr. Gavin, "I don't know, but I'll check and get back to you on that."

[ Next Day ] Mr. Gavin, "Well I checked and found out that he participated in 14 cross-burnings, 3 lynchings and one episode where the unfortunate fella was drug behind a pick-up truck. Any other questions?

[swheats]

Either way Byrd still doesn't look good in this. Gavin couldn't come right out and say "no" it didn't happen.
