Does confirm or refute his being a racist or having qualities that would lead one to believe he has said or done racist things.
I don't think you understood my post at all.

On a more serious note, I made sure to say "allegations". My beef is with current comments on marijuana users and voting rights. I won't call him a racist for being a typical Alabamian during the 70's.
Ted is a fair comparison. I just don't think it's the same thing. You can't call him a murderer without being sued and calling him a drunk is just a personal attack as being a drunk doesn't prohibit you from being effective at your job. The point being made, and I know you got it, is that if Sessions were such an obvious racist, as is now being claimed since he's being nominated for AG, why did a slew of Democratic senators work for him for close to two decades without calling him out on it?
