Not to disparage the dead, but I hardly think that newly-deceased Senator Robert Byrd can pass off being a member of the Ku Klux Klan as a mere regret. Wearing white pants in the winter is a regret, joining the Klan is pretty much a blight on your character that it's impossible to come back from. I'm glad to see Senator Byrd was apologetic about his racist past, but I'm not sure a life of saying "whoopsie" makes up for this particular mistake.
