Trent "Vacant" Lott is up to bat at 5:30 EST.

I guess the purists among us feel so superior. They have never put their foot in their mouth.

I've tasted so much shoe leather in my life I'm suprised I'm not mooing.

But then this is all about the impeachment.......and these are the same folks who are ridiculing Gore for not getting over the election he tried to steal.

Putting Monica Lewinsky on national television in front of a bunch of old men while she cried and moaned about how horribly she was being treated by mean old Henry Hyde seemed to be just the thing to get soccer moms (who hated the Republicans over impeachment anyway) in our corner, don't you think?

republicans have a real resistance to USING that kind of ploy... but they shouldn't.

It's jugular time.

[Robert_Paulson2]

beautiful chris.

"But then this is all about the impeachment"

Not for me OldFriend. It's about what mr spinless did about the sale of our technology to china. It's about our White House for sale. About no controlling athority. It's about alot of things. It's about Murder inc. It's about treason and absolutely nothing done about it.

I sincerely do not care if clinton got 20 bj's a day from the troop leaders of the girl scouts. None of my business. I don't like the way lott compromises on every conservative value. Plain and simple.

Can you tell me the last time you actually admired something Trent Lott has done? Repeat done, not said.

[Jeff Chandler]

This is a tough one. Lott is a spineless, self-serving wimp with no visible core values beyond his own ambition. He consistently caves in to the rats without even negotiating. Now he hands the rats free ammunition with which to blast the Pubs.

 

However... just because he is a dolt, a nincompoop and a buffoon does not translate into his being a racist. (If he were a racist, it would imply that he actually had principles-wrong principles, but principles nontheless, which he doesn't. But I digress.)

 

The rats should not be allowed to get away with mislabeling a fool as a bigot.

 

My fear, though, is that he will now attempt to prove his embracing of diversity by giving away the store to the the rats. If Bush were to try to guide the senate in a conservative direction, approve constitutionalist judges, etc., against Lotti's will, he could threaten to resign his seat, which would be filled by a rat (by a rat gov), which would leave the senate one Chaffee defection away from a rat majority.

 

 

[OldFriend]

You certainly have the right idea.......it was time to dig the hole that the media dug for us a lot deeper so we would be truly buried. Would have made some freepers happy as a lark.

[OldFriend]

Frankly, I don't care if he never does a thing for me or anyone else. I would prefer not to have the government 'help me' in any way shape or form. That said, I will be damned if the republic hating media and their hateful friends in government decide who shall live and who shall die.

[Rightwing Conspiratr1]

But it's a LEFTY non-issue which means it'll hang on like the 2000 re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-count fiasco BECAUSE IT ISN'T LOTT THEY'RE AFTER, IT IS PRESIDENT BUSH THEY ARE AFTER.....come to think of it, AL GORE started THIS fiasco TOO.

They ran on these non-issues this past November. If they want to run on these non-issues in 2004 that's fine by me. Let them squawk all they want.

[Rightwing Conspiratr1]

Ack sorry, same question though. Is South Carolina proud of their Senator Thurmond or not?

[Geezerette]

Ooooops! I forgot to do a search for Kleagle! I have "Googled" before, but it didn't occur to me this time.

At least my inquiry can be considered a "Bump" to the top for a good thread, huh?! ;-D

South Carolinians love Strom, according to my son who lives there.
