In the late seventies, during one of those end of the term marathon sessions of congress, then majority leader Senator Byrd invited members of the press to his office for an early morning briefing at the conclusion of which the Senator, wearing a bright red vest, picked up his fiddle and bowed a hot “Turkey in the Straw”. I wish I could find that sketch.
The above sketch shows Senator Byrd during the Clinton Senate Impeachment trial in 1999.
