Why would I deny documented facts that were admitted to by Byrd himself. I will note, however, that he has since expressed deep regret over his remarks, and no longer feels that way, and on an NPR interview I heard several months ago, he made no bones about the fact that what he said and thought at that time was stupid.
Now that I've upheld your statement, how about you reexamining it, in the context of this thread, and admitting that perhaps you were just trying to start a war that didn't need to be started.
And for the record, I'm with Tecoyah on this one. Take note, since as y'all know I don't generally agree with his decisions in this forum. But he's right on the money here - this was not a liberal vs. conservative thread, and it was nothing short of petty trolling to bring that up.
