foxfrye and others
I agree with others that this discussion is getting tiresome. It was a fine point I was attempting to make that made the difference between the two individuals. I personally feel it is as plain as day. However, I feel that I have beat that horse to death.
Regarding Bryd and his voting records, I have no idea. If he still continues to vote against things that are for better civil rights then he should not be respected regardless of how good a speaker he is. If he votes against people just because they are black or of another minority race he should not respected either. If those things are true then that would make Dodd's praise of him seen as praise for his racist views. Since I have no idea and I have no intention of finding out, I am opting out of this discussion and let other more informed hash it out.
