Good for them. But let's not stop there. Another KKK Kommunity Organizer recently passed away, and it would benefit our nation to rename the following facilities, also known as Byrd Droppings:

The cost of new signage for these facilities could be covered with Porkulus funds. This would be appropriate, since it was Pork that built all of 'em.
After that, no more pork projects named for racist Democrats. Ever.
No more pork projects named for racist Republicans. Ever. Or left-handed people. Or right-handed people. Or anyone else.
No more freebies.
That would solve the problem, wouldn't it?

Washington Post eulogized Byrd as a 'Champion of the Constitution.' They must be reading another version of the Constitution.
There was a brief period in history when mighty warships, great edifices, and urban areas were named after shared VALUES and noble QUALITIES.
Naming things after the people, especially those who built them with appropriated funds, was the common practice of TYRANTS.
Only companies which are the accomplishments of great entrepreneurs deserve to bear their name, and many of those entrepreneurs weren't vain enough to use their own names.
I can see it now....
The U.S.S. Kickback
H.M.S. Porkulus
Stimulus Row
etc etc etc
