1. And remember that Hillary got up and asked for a chunk of time to rise and speak

and then she divided the time btwn herself and Joe Biden and both of them spoke IN FAVOR of the resolution. It was absolutely disgusting.

2. He made me cry when he gave his anti-war speeches. I was so

angry about no one paying attention and no one speaking out and here comes Robert Byrd. I cried and cried listening to him and then I followed all his speeches. I watched him fight the good fight as he called it for 10 hours on the senate floor. He was mighty powerful and NO MEDIA carried his beautiful speeches.
"The moving hand writes and having writ moves on. Nor all your piety or wit can call it back to erase a single line, nor all your tears wipe out a word of it. So said the Persian poet..............."
Does anyone remember that speech?

4. actually, the link that pops up at the end that goes to Warner vs. Byrd dicussion

is also worth a watch - even better than Byrd's prepared remarks to me.

(I mean of the extra video links that pop up at the end)
