So, there are no good options. Best to do the right thing. After all, we should be better than the liberals.
I agree with doing the right thing. In this case, however, what is doing the right thing? He said something stupid. Does that justify removal on the RATS' terms? He did not rape a nursing home owner. He did not sell missile technology to the ChiComs. He did not commit perjury or suborn perjury. He did not obstruct justice. He did not get disbarred. He did not introduce a false affidavit to the court. He did not intimidate witnesses.
I don't want Lott gone for saying something stupid. I have wanted him gone for being ineffective and a pushover for the RATS. But I don't want him gone because the RATS are making it happen. He did not commit an "impeachable" offense here.
