I knew Byrd had recanted his KKK membership and position but wasn't aware that he had helped filibuster civil rights legislation in the 60's. I don't wish him ill will, God rest his soul. It's too bad that it took him longer to figure that stuff out. At any rate, he served over 50 years in the Senate and that's quite an accomplishment. With all due respect to the recently departed Senator and I will pray for him, I also hope his replacement is a conservative.
