Hillary Gives 'KKK' Byrd Freedom Award

In a little-noticed ceremony before she flew off to attend Iowa's Jefferson-Jackson Day Dinner Saturday night, Sen. Hillary Clinton presented ex-Klansman-turned-Senator Robert Byrd with the Franklin Roosevelt Institute's Four Freedoms Award.

Addressing the crowd in Hyde Park, N.Y., Mrs. Clinton praised Byrd as a mentor, saying he provided a wonderful example for her.

"When I think of the Senate, I think of Robert Byrd," the former first lady said, according to an account in the Hyde Park Townsman.

It was during Roosevelt's third presidential term that Byrd joined the Klan, saying he wanted to fight communism. And though he left within a year, he continued to advise Klan leaders on how to expand the influence of the anti-black terror group.

In 1971, Byrd co-sponsored a measure to have the Senate's main office building named after Sen. Richard Russell, an unabashed white supremacist who led the fight against anti-lynching legislation in the Senate.

"He was kind of my mentor," Byrd said recently, noting that Sen. Russell was known as an expert on Senate rules, much like himself.

In 2001 Byrd was forced to apologize after he blurted out the "N"-word twice during a nationally televised interview.

The essential re-colonization of the Islamic world, like any process critical to our survival, is more complicated than simply making pre-emptive war wherever subhumans rule.

It's more like the "Island-hopping" strategy against Japan in WWII, where you take out the strategically key points-like Iraq and Afghanistan-and allow the new colonies to exert overwhelming pressure on the surrounding subhumans. We will likely have to invade other ME countries over the next 20 years. Syria and Iran come to mind. But the strategic picture has been turned around by the re-colonization (in the MODERN sense-through creation of a nation where full humans are again in charge), and that momentum is now unstoppable, barring another Treason Administration seizing power in Washington, as Clinton and his henchmen once did...

Re: "So whenever we need to find out what is going on in another country, we should engage in a pre-emptive war"

Hey, that's not my reasoning, nor Bush's. You made it up. Silly of you, IMO.
