Well here’s a more fitting place for my comment in another post about this racist douche. The AP wrote this:

Robert C. Byrd, who rose from the poverty of West Virginia coal country to become the sage and conscience of the U.S. Senate in a political career stretching more than half a century, died Monday. He was 92.

My anger was all that kept me from vomitting when I read this.

Of course, just S.O.P. for the leftist media. I now need an antonym for my dictionary entry “demaeulogy”

Althing, yes I read that on Yahoo! news, so I guess that’s the Party Line. I dunno, though, “conscience of the U.S. Senate” seems to be a fairly accurate assessment, given the Senate’s state of “consciousness.” And I love that phrase “political career!” That is *exactly* what’s wrong today! Politics is not a “career” — it’s supposed to be a time of *service* to a constituency. I’m just waiting for someone in the MSM to refer to it as “Byrd’s seat.” >:-(

And why don’t my emoticons work? Or my font styles? What do you folks know that I don’t? Can you help me out, 1MadJack?

Byrd changed his views. Thurmond was a Republican. How can people not understand the difference?

Byrd never changed his views. In fact, he used the word “nigger” in a speech just a couple of years ago. I thought his handler would shit a brick.

How about “Old Grand Wizard of the KKK meets Satan”.
This guy was so crooked they will have to screw him into the ground.

Look up the headlies of Jesse Helms death and compare them to The Exhaulted Cyclops Sheets Byrd.

Rush did it when the Swimmer Kennedy acheived room temperature…pretty disgusting and pathetic.

I hope Byrd made peace with God before he died, but I doubt it.

So what will be the thread count of the sheet they wrap the old Byrd in when they bury him? Or will the Libs just have him stuffed so that he can continue voting for their crappy legislation?

segregationist? WT?
The lamestreammedia thinks no one will look up what it means. Use the big word so the morons(voters) don’t get wise.

Tell them the truth- HE WAS KLAN!!!!!

Someone should’ve carved a KKK on his forehead decades ago. That would’ve fixed that old racist’s politcal “career” but good!

Yeah Jesse Helms was demonized his entire life. People celebrated his death like he was Hitler himself. Trent Lott got canned for just complimenting Thurmond at his funeral. This asshat gets the red carpet rolled out for his casket. I have asked some of my wife’s relatives and old high school friends why they kept voting this morom leftist in every year… Most of them actually touted the fact that he was in the Klan as the reason they kept him! Of course they always try to minimalize their “yankeeness” to me because I’m from NC. To which I always remind them that the only reason there is a West Virginia, is so they could BE Yankees. Yes the stereotypes are pretty much accurate. Oh God, I have to go there this weekend for my wife’s family reunion. I hope she doesn’t dump me when we get there.

Barbaric!! Barbaric!!

I wonder why they never referred to old Strom Thurmond as an “ex-Democrat”. Unlike Byrd, Thurmond changed his mind and switched to the party of civil rights — the GOP.

Come to think of it, wasn’t the old fart already serving in the senate when “West” Virginia decided to leave the Confederacy and join the Union in 1863?

Maybe Byrd will be buried in an Obama t-shirt.

Now he can get drunk with his old buddy Teddy in hell’s local bar.

There’s no fool like an old liberal fool.
If he was right of center the headline would have KKK 3 inches high.

Hiney,

Brush up on your history:

And remember two things: 1) there was a reason they were called SEGREGATIONIST DEMOCRATS and 2) Martin Luther King, Jr. was a Republican.

He was the lead horseman in Birth Of A Nation.

[...] Indeed– if the Dems were truly as nice, kind, pro-minority as they proclaimed… well, they wouldn’t be the Democratic Party.  Just remember, folks– this was the song the DNC used in 1864…  they were Copperheads then, and they’re Copperheads still.  For reference, compare the treatment of Byrd to the treatment of Thurmond.
