As much as I'd like to see Lott replaced as Majority Leader, the controversy over this statement shouldn't be the thing that ousts him.

All due respect, but this smacks too much of the old liberal shibboleth that "Clinton's enemies couldn't get him on Whitewater, so they're trying to bust him on Monica". People on FR, if not elsewhere, understood that Monica, Whitewater, Waco, etc. were simply different facets of the consequences of having a horror that was a sociopathic President. It never should have surprised anyone that with lying about real estate deals comes lying about adultery.

Likewise, only naive ones would think that lousy, quisling-like "leadership" of the GOP caucus and putting your foot in your mouth big time aren't just different sides of the same counterfeit coin.

Absolutely on the money, and beautifully said, too.

That's not the only "blast from the past" nonsense you'll find. If you look closely at some of the comments, you'll find the "they do it, too" defense, the "held to a different standard" defense, the "stand by your man" defense, and the "bigger fish to fry" defense. It was laughable coming from the Dems' party hacks during impeachment, but it's positively shameful when our own make the same tired "arguments."

So, are you saying that all southerners are racists? Or just the ones that you don't like(confederates)?
