Reply to comment by Pripat99 in It's 8pm. Things are about to get real interesting in Connecticut… by ctnutmegger

Is it too much to ask that the leaders of our country don’t have a background as Exalted Cyclops of the KKK? I don’t think so

Again, you’re talking about a guy who passed away 12 years ago and hadn’t been a member of that organization in 58 years before that. If you think this is relevant to today, then OK.

Where do we draw the line? If Hitler survived WWII and denounced his Nazi affiliation, should he be allowed to be a Senator?

Nope.

But you have no problem forgiving the top recruiter for the KKK? Do you understand how insane that sounds?

Your party is still endorsed by the Ku Klux Klan and you want to talk about a guy who was last in their ranks 70 years ago. It’s a bold choice, I’ll give you that.

My party? How assumptive of you to presume I’m a Republican. I’m a registered Independent who voted for Ned Lamont yesterday, but nice try

Of course you don’t believe me, why would I lie? I don’t often vote blue, but I did yesterday for Lamont. Fact of the matter is, both sides are hypocrites and the Dems had the Exalted Cyclops of the KKK as one of their leaders. Racists on both sides
