Senator Byrd Grills Condi. What a "Sheet Head!"

Former Ku Klux Klansmen, Robert Byrd of West Virginia grilled Condi Rice today. Where's the outrage in the African American community.

Robert Byrd of West Virginia said her confirmation would be viewed "as another endorsement of the administration's unconstitutional doctrine of pre-emptive war, its bullying policies of unilateralism, and its callous rejection of our long-standing allies."

Republicans pointed to the sparkling resume of the 50-year-old Rice who grew up in the segregated South, the daughter of a preacher. She became provost at Stanford University and later served in the top echelon of the Bush White House as one of his closest advisers.
