The KKKing of Pork
Posted in Politically Incorrect on June 29th, 2010 by glennm
The great respect being offered on the death of West Virginia Sen. Robert Byrd conveniently overlooks that he began as a committed Klu Klux Klan member and staunch segregationist and became over time the high priest of congressional “earmarks.” Staying in the Senate until one is senile should not, in my view, obscure others from remembering one’s past. In Byrd’s case, that past is hardly one worth honoring.
