Every time I hear the man speak, I think, <em>He's completely lost it. FINALLY, people will see that, and we'll be rid of him.</em> Yet, a lot of people seem to still think the man is infallible. The double-standard in the way these two men were treated <em>is</em> appalling, but it's par for the course with Byrd. Even when other liberals in this state are get toasted because of things they've done or said, everyone here seems convinced that Byrd is only one <em>tiny</em> step away from perfect. It's sickening. I border on nauseous every time I hear Byrd’s name mentioned. Every time I hear the man speak, I think, He’s completely lost it.
