#1 Oh, great... maybe it's senility kicking in. At least drunks can sober up. Wall to wall senior moments is something else entirely.
Thank you all so very much, all you voters of West Virginia... you must be so very pleased.

#3 Minutes later, he was installed as Senate president pro tempore, the majority party's most senior member. "Yeah, man! Yeah, man!" he shouted. "Hallelujah!"

Sounds like he thought he was at a Baptist church...

#5 "Byrd drunk at Senate opening session?"

Just like Teddy Kennedy, how could they tell? What was different from his norm?
