New York Times columnist Bob Herbert wrote a fascinating op-ed today unmasking Montana's Republican Senator Conrad Burns. According to the Herbert:
Back in 1994, while campaigning for a second term, Senator Burns dropped by a local newspaper, The Bozeman Daily Chronicle, and told an editor an anecdote about one of his constituents, a rancher who wanted to know what life was like in Washington.
Mr. Burns said the rancher asked him, "Conrad, how can you live back there with all those niggers?"
Senator Burns said he told the rancher it was "a hell of a challenge."
On another occasion, Sen. Burns had to apologize after giving a speech in Billings about America's dependence on foreign oil. In the speech, he referred to Arabs as ragheads."
Burns is giving Sen. Trent Lott, R-Miss., a run for his money for most amazing Republican bigot. It is quite a prestigious award, as the competition is rather stiff.
