Senator Robert Byrd died this weekend The 93-year-old senator was a respected voice in Congress. He was known for bringing huge amounts of federal money to West Virginia. But not a single dentist.
He was 93. Up until the end he worked a full day. All the way through dinner at 4 PM.
He was so old his first year in office was marked by high praise from everyone in the 13 colonies.
Senator Robert Byrd died this weekend. The 93-year-old Byrd was a respected voice of the Senate. The respected voice of the Senate brought huge amounts of federal money to West Virginia. But, apparently, not a single dentist.
Byrd actually wasn’t the oldest living thing in Congress. Corruption, bribery and petty infighting go back even further.
