It could probably be shown by facts and figures that there is no distinctly native American criminal class except Congress.

"Former senators John Breaux (D-La.) and Trent Lott (R-Miss.) are opening a new, all-in-the-family lobbying firm... "Bipartisan Lobbying Firm"

Translation: " Hi ya'll. Our doors are open and we take any ones money. Then push our agenda to Congress. Thank you!"

meanwhilst, Lott has left Mississippi in a legal augument as to when the replacement election must be held. Had he waited till after the first of the year, Gov Haley Barbour’s appointment would have been in office till the Nov election. Now there is a challenge by the Atty General that the election must be held in 90 days, that seriously erodes the incumbent factor for reelection.

Lott is all about Lott and none about the Republicans that supported him for years.

Does anyone know if Lott supported the law he is skirting by the early retirement?

This explains why Lott did nothing to help Woody Jenkins gain the Senate seat from LA in 1996. Instead, Breaux’s candidate, Mary Landrieu, was seated under questionable circumstances where the dead leaped from New Orleans graves to cast ballots.

Lott and Breaux Open Bipartisan Lobbying Firm

Translation: "We don't care who we whore ourselves out to, as long as you're paying us enough..."

Sort of like Jody Foster's character in "Inside Man."

I’m thinking a better name for the Lott-Breaux lobbying firm would be “Brott-Leaux”.
