WV Senator Robert Byrd Endorses Barack Obama … So Much For Following the Will of the WV People

 

So much for the will of the West Virginia voters, Senator Byrd tells WV votersByrd_robert that their votes mean nothing. Maybe some would would like to wake the Senator Byrd and tell him Obama lost by 41% points in the WV Primary.

Yes, this story is correct. Robert Byrd is endorsing Barack Obama for President. Byrd’s endorsement is so comical that one does not know where to even begin. So much for Byrd following the will of the people. Byrd does know that he is the “senior” Senator of West Virginia.

He said he had “no intention of involving myself in the Democratic campaign for President in the midst of West Virginia’s primary election. But the stakes this November could not be higher.”

Maybe some one needs to inform Senator Byrd that Hillary Clinton just won his state’s primary 67% to 26%. Does Robert Byrd not care how his own state cares to vote? How can Byrd even think that Obama could carry WV in a general election?

Byrd praised both Obama and Hillary Clinton, saying their “integrity, honor, love for this country and strong belief in our Constitution I deeply respect…

I guess Senator Byrd cares less what Obama’s wife has to say about her honor and love for this country.

“Barack Obama is a noble-hearted patriot and humble Christian, and he has my full faith and support,” Byrd concluded.

Humble Christian? I guess Barack Obama learned his humble Christian ways from sermons like this from the “Humble” Reverend Wright. I guess Senator Byrd has a guilty conscience over his past ways and feels the need to remedy his past even though Obama does not have a prayer of winning WV in the Fall. The Gateway Pundits points out the fact that Byrd endorsing Obama, This Ought To Make Michelle Proud.

This must be where Obama learned his humble Christian ways over the past 20 years.

      One lifelong racist passes the baton to the new generation of racists, and against the will of the people, too.

      Absolutely incredible.

      According to Michelle Obama in her own words … American is not the issue … the separation of Blacks and Whites is the issue.

      This is the same ideology that Senator Bryd openly embraced at one time.

      “I guess Senator Byrd cares less what Obama’s wife has to say about her honor and love for this country.”

      I guess these others care less as well? To say the Obama’s are anti-American would mean the following are as well (guilt by association & they have endorsed him):

      * Susan Ahn Cuddy, first female gunner officer in the U.S. Navy and daughter of Korean Independence fighter Ahn Chang-ho
      * Tom Daniels, Texas Air National Guard
      * Richard Danzig, former Secretary of the Navy
      * Larry Gillespie, Brigadier General (Ret), Assistant Deputy Commanding General, (ARNG) Army Material Command
      * Scott Gration Major General (USAF-Ret), former Director of Strategy, Policy, and Assessments of the United States European Command in Germany
      * Donald Joseph Guter, former Judge Advocate General of the Navy, current Dean, Duquesne University School of Law, Pittsburgh
      * Richard D. Hearney, former Assistant Commandant of the Marine Corps
      * John Hutson, former Judge Advocate General of the U.S. Navy
      * Jeh Johnson, former General Counsel of the U.S. Air Force
      * Lester Lyles, former Vice Chief of Staff of the United States Air Force
      * David ‘Dave’ McGinnis, Brigadier General (Ret), former Chief of Staff of the National Guard Association of the U.S.
      * Merrill A. McPeak, four star General (Ret), former Secretary of the United States Air Force during Operation Desert Storm
      * John B. Nathman (Ret), former Commander, U.S. Fleet Forces Command and Vice Chief of Naval Operations
      * F. Whitten Peters, former Secretary of the Air Force
      * Hugh Robinson, Major General (Ret), Commander of the Southwestern Division
      * James Smith, Brigadier General (USAF-Ret), former Commander, Joint Warfighting Center, U.S. Joint Forces Command, Joint Training Analysis and Simulation Center

      #2 – Did ya read it or did ya just robo post again?
      I’ll give you the benefit and assume you read it…sooo…does she advocate any idea of black racial superiority or white racial inferiority or does she incite any hatred against whites? No, and I dare you to point it directly out to me. It is a Sociology thesis, so it’s analyzing a specific social group. If you have even taken sociology, (i’ll even accept Community College courses), then you would know that you analyze social groups and their beliefs all of the time.

      #2 – What was your undergraduate senior thesis about?

      Once again the TROLL yoyo brainlesstop chimes in with it’s skewed sense of reality.

      I am from WV and I say to the rest of America… SORRY. THis man has never cared what WV think. He is all about getting roads, streets, and building named after him. We should have voted him out years ago. Again I am sorry that we keep putting him back in the Senate.

      I think that Byrd finally got a bit of common sense along with his age. It appears he has learned that you don’t ALWAYS have to say what folks want to hear at the expense of being right. And BRAVO for that.

      No, I don’t support Obama. But he SEEMS to be the “lesser of evils” at least on the surface.

      Don’t forget, in the Repub caucus in WV “we” voted for a loser. What makes the Dems any different?

      Ron Paul is the only person worth voting for.

    10. maddy on May 21st, 2008 12:24 pm

      none are worth voting for… all three are the SAME EXACT Politican…

      And all three will screw Americans…. and do it with pride and satifaction.
