So Jeff Session has always been a leading civil rights advocate. Who knew?

[Atman]

That fact seemed to escape the Republicans when they refused to confirm him for a judgeship. But I guess he's had twenty years to work on a new story, so he should now be AG of the United States.

1. Just last week he drove by a person of color without muttering the N word under his breath

I think we've found the Grand Marshall for the MLK Day parade.

The @NAACP_LDF's new report on Jeff Sessions — and his stance on criminal justice and civil rights — is a must-read. http://bit.ly/2jvO1N5

6. They can always try to use Robert Byrd as an example of how someone can "evolve.'

8. We are not merely in a post-fact era.

We are in the age of Trumpty-Dumpty.

'When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, 'it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less.'

So if Mr. Sessions says he's a civil rights advocate, then a civil rights advocate he is.

[bigtree]

10. that's a great analogy

...Trumpty-Dumpty.

11. Got into it once (bipartisan website) with KKK wizard, who called himself a "civil rights activist."

This was years ago, and the guy was an honest to god former KKK wizard from Oklahoma. He claimed he had changed, yet had a KKK site with confederate flags, love for george war bush, and more racist crap. Ended up threatening to shoot me in the head. Wasn't too worried about that, but I did wake up for months expecting a burnt cross on my lawn.

Sessions is your typical racist from the slave states.
