"You'll need to source that." See the actual text that paulv selectively quoted out of context below. http://chronicle.augusta.com/stories/1998/07/13/met_233245.s... Second sentence: "U.S. Sen. Strom Thurmond, R-S.C., no longer supports racial segregation." Actual quote from Thurmond below: "I may have said some things that I could have left off because I favor everybody receiving equal treatment," Mr. Thurmond said. "Race should not enter into it. It's merit that counts." And in a (probably futile) attempt to stave off another misstatement of my position: I don't believe Strom Thurmond stopped being a racist. I don't believe that Robert Byrd stopped being one either. |
