My Hero, Byrd, is on CSPAN.
His brilliance and wisdom and sense of humanity is shining.

I love him for his notable evolution from a political box to an advocate for humanity.

I love him.

1. There have to be better heroes out there than Robert Byrd.
I mean, yeah, he hates the Patriot Act and the war in Iraq, but he still has a lot of problems, not the least of which is naming half of West Virginia after himself.

There must be better role models out there.

5. And the KKK thing, just means nothing to you.
A youthful indiscretion, you think?

Give me a break.

2. I wish he would be my mentor,...
,...allow me to be cultured into his wisdom, and carry his torch.

I wish.

7. And what are the odds he will vote against the Roberts appointment?
It's a bet I wouldn't make.
