Bill Clinton Defends Robert Byrd's Membership In The Ku Klux Klan By Saying That "He Was Just Trying To Get Elected"

Politicians sure do say stupid things sometimes.  And politicians such do like to inject political issues into just about anything.  But we were honestly stunned when we saw the following video of Bill Clinton at a memorial service for Senator Robert Byrd.  In the video posted below, Clinton explains that Byrd joined the KKK because "he was just trying to get elected".

Well, that just makes everything okay, now doesn't it?

Not.

The people of West Virginia should be ashamed for sending someone like Robert Byrd back to the U.S. Senate over and over and over.  If you really dig in and do your research you will find out that he has knee deep in all sorts of bad stuff. 

Byrd originally joined the KKK in 1942, and he became head of his local chapter before claiming to lose interest in the organization a year later.

However, in 1946 Byrd publicly said that the KKK was "needed today as never before".

But there is so much more to Robert Byrd's legacy.  The truth is that he did not just make "one bad decision" when he was young.  He spent his entire career in the U.S. Senate making really bad decisions which affected all of us.  He was one of those horrible career politicians which we never had any hope of defeating because the foolish people of West Virginia seemed absolutely determined to keep sending him back to Washington.

So, no, the career of Senator Byrd should not be honored.  He was wrong on almost any issue that you could possibly name and he tried to push America in the wrong direction for decades. 

But people were willing to make excuses for him all of his career.  Now, even in his death, Bill Clinton is making excuses for him....

Hillary Clinton As Secretary Of State? Is This Change?

All of the major news outlets are buzzing about the prospect that Senator Hillary Clinton is about to be selected by Barack Obama as the next Secretary of State of the United States.

CNN is reporting that Clinton had flown to Chicago and has met with Obama to discuss her future.

So is this change?

First Obama selects Joe Biden, who has decades of experience of being an establishment insider, for the number two position. Now he is about to select Hillary Clinton for the number three position in the government?

These selections just scream "more of the same!"

It is interesting to note that Hillary Clinton has close ties to the Council on Foreign Relations, which has produced every single Secretary of State since the 50s. In fact, almost all of the potential cabinet selections that are being floated by the Obama people either are members of the CFR or are closely tied to that organization.

So if Barack Obama keeps brining in establishment hacks and former members of the Clinton administration, what kind of "change" is that supposed to represent?

Vice President-elect Joe Biden has now appointed former Clinton administration aide Ran Klain as his chief of staff.

This comes one week after President-elect Barack Obama tapped Clinton aide Rahm Emanuel to head the White House as chief of staff.

The only way this new administration could be more "Clintonized" is if Hillary Clinton had been elected herself.

So is this change?

It sure seems to look like a lot more of the same Washington garbage that we have seen before.

Is Bill Clinton Secretly Lobbying For Hillary To Be Barack Obama's Choice For Vice President?

As Time magazine first reported, the friends and associates of the Clintons are buzzing with rumors that Bill Clinton is secretly pushing for Hillary to be Obama's choice for Vice President.

There is more and more information coming out that Bill Clinton is determined that since Hillary did not win the nomination that she should at least get the number 2 spot.

This prospect has many Democratic operatives excited, as they see it as a great opportunity for the Democratic party to reunify itself.
