African American

Walked 20 miles to join the Army - because his mother put the keys to all of the vehicles under her pillow.

This was after graduating two years early from a segregated high school in Alabama, and completing 2 bachelors degrees at Tuskegee in 3 years.

He became one of the first Green Berets - hand picked because he sent RFK a letter from a Navy ship at the end of his service (Purple Heart recipient, Broken Arm, Army Captain) that he was being held against his will and his commitment to the military had ended two days prior. Also, if he could get this letter to him, the Navy and Army could find a way to get him off the ship and back home.

That's called chutzpah in some circles . . . in RFK's mind - an AMERICAN man with brains and brass.

He also happened to be black.

Mitch McConnell didn't whistle - he welped and loudly.

Dog done welped, dog done did it. He's my late father's contemporary and it was DELIBERATE.

And Tim Scott is an Uncle Tom. And I hope that's offensive.

I see two wimps who didn't have the brass to serve their country HONORABLY. McConnell's "medical discharge" was bullshit.
