Jeanine Pirro Blasts Hillary's Party for Ex-Klansman
2005-11-16
New York Senate hopeful Jeanine Pirro is blasting 2008 presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton for throwing a birthday party tonight for Ku Klux Klansman-turned-Senator Robert Byrd at the home of a civil rights pioneer.

"It's outrageous and shocking that Senator Clinton and her Democrat colleagues would choose Frederick Douglass' house to honor Senator Robert Byrd, who has a history of involvement with hate groups and has used racial slurs publicly," Pirro spokeswoman Andrea Tantaros told the Associated Press. "Any person who has made racially insensitive comments and participated in groups that promote ethnic prejudice - Republican or Democrat - does not deserve support from a United States senator, especially the senator from New York, at a landmark that is so cherished by those who respect and honor racial equality," Pirro's spokeswoman added.

Byrd joined the Klan in 1943 and rose the level of Kleagle before being unanimously elected to the office of Grand Cyclops. He claims to have resigned a few months later. But in 1946 Byrd wrote the Klan's Grand Imperial Wizard to express his support.

#6  Why not - the Dems already want mainstream Amerikans to believe that Jefferson. Madison, Jackson, Wilson thru LBJ, etc. = Stalin, Marx, and Mao. All Dems are now prim and proper, anti-ALternatist/Hedonist/Les Bohemes RINOS and Conservatives, the "true" Party of national {Socialist]Conservativism, Rightism, Protection, and Law & Order, so why not the KKK = Douglas, and MLK!? 'TIS EVERMORE BAD OMEN(S) FOR THE GAYS-LESBIANS, LEGAL POLYGAMISTS, PEDOPHILISTS, and aligned whom continue to supp and promo the Clintons and Dems, as the Gulag and --- Camps loom.

#5  why not do a James Byrd/NAACP ad back on them:
(cuts to Klansmen surrounding a bonfire)
"Robert Byrd was a member of the KKK and said:
"never submit to fight beneath that banner (the American flag) with a Negro by my side. Rather I should die a thousand times, and see Old Glory trampled in the dirt never to rise again, than to see this beloved land of ours become degraded by race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen from the wilds."


"Hillary Clinton throws parties for only her trusted friends. Wake up and smell the coffee, before they ask you to serve it"

#3  It's not going to work. Deomocrats are automatically innocent of wrongdoing, including KKK Byrd.

#2  She normally has a better political ear. That was truly dumb.

#1  Those are the type of shots Pirro needs to take, but this race still looks like shades of David v. Goliath.
