I am in SC right now and everyone is soooo sad, all over the news saying how great Strom Thurmond has been to SC. Puhleeze, I remember not to long ago, they asked Thurmond if he was still racist and he said "No, I swim everyday." Huh, WTF?
Now his daughter, she is his not adopted. And he did take care of her. He claimed her, visited her at school, paid for college, and took care of her financially. But he has more than one black child, I just can't remember the details.
I must say, though, as racist as he was, Strom loved Black women. When I was in high school, we went to the capital and he was all over the Black girls-hugging, "mistakenly" touching them. Just makes you wonder...
Well, I am off to CC to see how wonderful Strom was
