WV wouldn’t be anything like it is without him. My mom is from WV so I spent a lot of time there.

His family admired Sen. Byrd. I grew to admire his ability to grow. I hear political ads for azinger. He's a butthead.

I know because Fort Boreman Park in Parkersburg.

The name of 'Byrd' has a looooong history in the area and the country. You can try to 'remove' his memory, but it won't happen.

Now, as to anyone remembering the jackass who proposed this.... well...

West Virginia would have zilch if not for Byrd.

They have a turncoat gov, who just had his property siezed, to be auctioned to pay off $300 million in back taxes he won't pay.

They elected a bunch of rwnj anti-bortionists who banned abortion in WV and are stripping away advances in education, local opportunities, environmental protection. For a state that relies on tourism, they may have to change the state motto from Almost Heaven to Hell in a Handbasket.

The same rwnj they elected because gunz? Are now working at removing the memorial to one of the best politicians WV ever fielded.

There are citizens of WV alive who lived there before the Interstates were built, before Bureau of Public Debt and FBI offices were created there. Because of Sen. Byrd, there was a noticeable improvement in opportunity, if not the standard of living.
