Sen. Byrd: I Didn't Lynch and Wasn't Racist While in the Klan
by flynn23 at 8:39 pm EST, Jan 13, 2003

A spokesman for West Virginia Sen. Robert Byrd said Monday morning that the top Senate Democrat has told him he never participated in lynchings, cross burnings or other hate crimes against African-Americans while he was a member of the Ku Klux Klan in the 1940s. And he insisted that his boss wasn't a racist even during the time he belonged to the anti-black hate group.

Good lord! I liked Byrd's comments in the recent Iraq war hearings. The stuff mentioned in this article is clearly aweful. I had no idea. If this stuff catches wind in the major media Byrd will be history. Of course, a similar effort to oust John Ashcroft for similar reasons has yet to really get going. Ashcroft may have done a better job of covering it up.


There is a redundant post from crankymessiah not displayed in this view.
