Lott Singles Out Frist, Nickles, Allbaugh For Criticism In His New Book Mon Aug 15 2005 10:05:29 ET
In his new autobiography HERDING CATS, Sen. Trent Lott accuses Sen. Bill Frist and former Sen. Don Nickles "of helping mastermind" his fall from power in 2002!
ROLL CALL reports: "While Lott continues to work with Frist on legislative matters, it is clear the Mississippi Republican remains angry with the man he describes in his book as his former 'protoge' ... As for Nickles, Lott now says he should have expected the GOP Whip to attempt to undermine his authority. Lott contends...that 'As my whip he'd made it clear he was after my job as majority leader.'"
Lott also chastises Joe Allbaugh, a confidant of President Bush's who was then director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, for allowing the media to quote him as an unnamed Bush aide calling on him to step down. 'He admitted to me that he was one of the 'Bush aides' who were leaking statements to the press that I had to go,' Lott states in his book. 'When I asked him why, he answered, "For the heck of it. I didn't mean any harm. I though it was off the record." Really -- he actually said that."

Trent Lott is a walking compendium of what's wrong with the Senate: corruption, greed, lust and mendacity, all coupled to insatiable ego.
Did I miss anything...???

Nobody likes a whiner, Trent. Stop playing the victim. Your leadership position died from self-inflicted wounds.
