Here's my favorate part of the article:
In 1986, he was one of only twenty-one members of the House to oppose the Safe Drinking Water Act. He fought efforts to clean up hazardous waste and backed tax breaks for energy corporations. He repeatedly voted against funding for the Veterans Administration. He opposed extending the Civil Rights Act. He opposed the release of Nelson Mandela from jail in South Africa. He even voted for cop-killer bullets.
Keep those uppity black folk in their place, who drinks water - let 'em drink champagne, and discard the men who served our country when you no longer need 'em. Who needs Marie Antoniette when we can have someone like that in high office? Makes be proud to be "ah 'Merican."
