I don't care how old he is, he laid it all on the line.
CSPAN2
Edited to add: Senator Robert Byrd.

I always enjoy him. This is concise and to the point (not that I don't enjoy his classical references when he is on a riff). There is a point where he needs a drink of water. The pause and his shaking two handed grasp just to get a drink tells me everything I need to know about the man. He is giving his life for his country. He will not back down! He attacks instead. Oh, the beauty of a great Senator in action.

5. No we don't, at least I don't. |

I agree with this smart man who is too old to cut corners and calls 'm like he sees 'm.

6. Read his book, read his Senate speeches. He is extraordinary |
|
and he cares deeply about our consitution and freedoms. I don't think he receives nearly the attention he deserves. Just hang out at BN for a while, get yourself a nice coffee, and browse his latest book Losing America: Confronting a Reckless and Arrogant Presidency by Robert C. Byrd.
