Haynes only likes him some Partisan Hedy

It's ironic that Joe Haynes, after bashing Republicans and Conservatives disinclined to rubber stamp a proclamation for TN ACLU's Hedy Weinberg, saw fit to distance himself from perhaps the only principled, non-reflexive Liberal stance Hedy has taken over 25 years:

"I haven't always agreed with Hedy... like when she was for the Ku Klux Klan marching (at an event in Pulaski years ago)," Haynes said when asked why he pushed a resolution praising Weinberg. "But I respect her. But she believes in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights and has worked hard for 25 years for those principles."

On second thought, it complicates things when you consider the KKK's deep roots in the Southern Democratic Party.
