KKK All The Way - Go GOP !!: "House Republican delivered a foreign policy speech yesterday in which e quoted Nathan Bedford Forrest, founder of the KKK."...
..."Poe’s spokesperson told Roll Call, 'The reference to Forrest was used in an historical context comparing the request to Congress for support of the Confederate troops to the request that is being made today by our Generals in Iraq.'
First, the comparison doesn’t make any sense. Second, when one bolsters their argument with the words of one of the most controversial Americans ever, rationalizing it as a historical comparison is unpersuasive.
Shouldn’t this be a bigger deal?"
Of course, but since everyone expects rightie lunatics to be assholes, they're allowed to get away with it.
