It's his fan club I can't stand!!
That's the way is should be!
The dem senator Robert Byrd who died recently, held high office in the KKK.

Did your grade school teacher just tell you that? Republicans believe in what MLK jr. said, " I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character."
