I am angry about the things of which you speak.

And I'm not watching so I have to take the word of others.

But I just don't care for Trent Lott, haven't for a long time. I think he should be more militant in his own defense than I'm hearing on this thread.

BET, indeed! That is stupid, that is not his job to entertain on BET. I think he should at least go on Oprah instead.

I'm no big fan of Lott..I didn't like what he didn't do during impeachment and I certainly didn't like the "power sharing" nonsense with the democRATs. Agree or not, like it or not, the Republican caucas reelected Lott. Probably to keep the more moderate/liberal Republicans on our side of the isle.

But, this is not fair. This is painful to watch because even if he is too accomodating, he is not a racist.

I tend to dispise anyone who uses the "r" word. It's cheap, it's painful, and 9 our of 10 times untrue.

Maybe Lott will resign his leadership position for "family reasons" in the months to come. But, I sure hope we don't allow ourselves to be held hostage to this bs any longer.
