Her accent is fun to listen to . Check out some of her interviews on YouTube . <| sep |> You ' re saying it ' s not HRC or Byrd was never in the KKK ? No , I ' m saying Byrd recanted his time in the KKK and was memorialized by the NAACP when he died . They said Senator Byrd reflects the transformative power of this nation , stated NAACP President and CEO Benjamin Todd Jealous . Senator Byrd went from being an active member of the KKK to a being a stalwart supporter of the Civil Rights Act , the Voting Rights Act and many other pieces of seminal legislation that advanced the civil rights and liberties of our country . Senator Byrd came to consistently support the NAACP civil rights agenda , doing well on the NAACP Annual Civil Rights Report Card . He stood with us on many issues of crucial importance to our members from the reauthorization of the Voting Rights Act , the historic health care legislation of 2010 and his support for the Hate Crimes Prevention legislation , stated Hilary O . Shelton , Director of the NAACP Washington Bureau and Senior Vice President for Advocacy and Policy . Senator Byrd was a master of the Senate Rules , and helped strategize passage of legislation that helped millions of Americans . He will be sorely missed . mournsthepassingofu . s . senatorrobertbyrd . So what was that about your bullshit claim again ? You ' ll have to concede that you didn ' t win bingo after all and just had a premature celebration . Nope , I definitely won . Or is the NAACP praising him for supporting their civil rights agenda fit in with your complete bullshit view of him ?
