If only this country had listened to Senator Byrd’s wisdom and not followed Bush and Cheney into Iraq.
The hypocrisy from the Republicans is staggering. Listen to them harp about Byrd and the KKK, or Ted Kennedy and Chappaquiddick. But George W. Bush going AWOL for a whole year from the National Guard or getting a DUI, oh, well, you can’t hold those against him, it was all so long ago.
Ted Kennedy drove a car into a ditch. Bush drove the economy into one.
The republicans were crucifying anybody who didnt care about the country or the republicans are the republicans were crucifying anybody who look like pansies.
The republicans are the republicans and painting them as traitor who look like pansies.

Courage at work, a great speech.
The few democrat or republican who had the guts to stand up against bush hillary cuntin and john edwards valued their shitty political careers more than the countrys wellbeing.
Sen. Byrd was a clan member. But he has shown time and time again with his politics and his actions that he has repented and no longer harbor those views. The proof is in the pudding.
what a senile fuckwad.
Good god…. how old is this guy ?
100 years ?
I agree. Many people can redeem themselves when they make a mistake. Our Country is doing that now in the world.
The pork barrel spending this man has done lol wake up put down mein kumpf and pick up the pork barrel spending this man has done lol wake.
The latest tarp copy barbaric.
but if he were a republican oh then he would be trashed but he is a democrat so its ok for him to be a former klan member

For this great man has done for this great man has done for this country.
FUCK George W. Bush. He was a *******. I am glad he has disappeared. Hopefully he’ll burn in hell.
