UPDATE: MORE DIRT KICKED ON DIXIECRAT THURMOND'S GRAVE

The late Senator Strom Thurmond was not only an unrepentant racist after all these years, it also seems the segregationist Dixiecrat fathered a daughter with a Black house servant back in 1925. Shameful all the way around, though not without analogy to Thomas Jefferson, who we celebrate on Friday, among others.

As I'll write about in another update, it's John Adams who we should really be celebrating. More later.
