Senator Byrd’s Health Failing
I am saddened to hear that the Senator Byrd is struggling with health issues to the point where he cannot stand at his Senate desk as he has for nearly half a century. You have to admire someone who has devoted so much to our country, no matter how much you differ with them on the issues. Byrd wanted to retire this year – he probably should have. But the callous and power hungry Democrat Leadership begged and bribed him to run one more time. Sadly I think they used him in such a manner that the old war horse may end his Senate career with his only election loss in decades (I have no idea if he ever lost a Federal election). I have always felt WV would go Rep this year. A frail Robert Byrd will sadly make my prediction come true. The Dems should never have asked so much of this man.
His main supporter, his wife, passed away at 88, or 89 not long ago. He is 90, or 91, I forget which? Enough is enough. Let him Die in Peace! Let him NOT BE TORTURED any more by having to stay on longer as another immoral, soul less DemoncRat. Let him try to make his peace with God. He will face eternity very soon. As a DemonCrat, he has Major, Major Problems that he needs to resolve BEFORE it is too late.
Wonder if there will be a Klan funeral? Pomp, circumstance, hoods. If so, wonder if it will be public.
