John Dingell (D)Michigan, Elected 1955:This career politician has been a Representative longer than any other. He took over from his father, who was there since 1932. Only Sen. Robert Byrd has served in the Congress longer. Now this dingellsaurus (Moveon.org word), has said his constituents reminded him of the Ku Klux Klan. Maybe he should know, he was around for the Civil Rights Bill, which I've heard he supported. He would have been one of the few Democrats that did. He was opposed to desegregation in his own district, however. He said this in reference to a town hall meeting, here. The best he can do to defend his position is to compare his constituents to the KKK. The pattern is developing here, to attack and call names, of those who oppose your views. After nearly 80 years, it is time for this dynasty to end.
