Robert Byrd KKK Update

Lou Minatti updates the Robert Byrd bio by documenting one of the Senator's latest gifts to America.
Former Ku Klux Klan Kleagle* Robert "Sheets" Byrd, the senile yet incredibly powerful Democratic senator from West Virginia, continues to piss people off. Byrd authored the stupid and evil Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act of 2000, which generates fat profits for slick corporate lawyers and a handful of uncompetitive companies.
Kleagle? What's "Kleagle"?
* Byrd didn't just dabble in the Klan. Byrd was a full-fledged "Kleagle," or recruiter.
