ABC News Reporting Lott Says He Has Votes to Remain Leader, Will Not Step Down

ABC NEWS Radio Report ^ | December 17, 2002 | Doug Limerick

[ewing]

No text yet, just a radio report at the end of Rush's show.

Must be worried about the Russert report this morning that he is 'Far' from the 26 votes needed for a Senate Caucus victory.

[ewing]

That may not be too far removed from how this is playing out.

[Howlin]

He's telling Shep Smith exactly what Lott has to do to satisfy the blacks.

And he's also saying HIS remarks about New York aren't the same.

HAHAHA.........Smith asks him when he was going to be on O'Reilly.......Jackson is UPSET.

Jackson says today this country is in an upheaval. BAH.

[Guillermo]

Lott fighting to keep the SML spot is selfish and stupid.

I hate him.

[Dog]

WOW....Shep just brings up the fact that OReilly is trying to expose some of Jesses dealings and asks him for a comment!!

ROFL!!!

[dfwgator]

Trent Lott has always been for sale to the highest bidder. It's all about the pork. He left the Rats for the Republicans, he could jump right back if the price is right. He has no principles.

[Mo1]

The Shep just skewered him on the "Hymietown" quote, and Jesse's lies about it.

LOL and asked him when he'd go on O'Reilly's show

[Cyber Liberty]

Didn't the toe-sucker used to work for Neville?

[Dog]

Yup.

[RichInOC]

"You just makin' this harder on yo'self, son..."

[spectre]

He is NOT really taking up for Lott, he's calling for censure. But we all know the consequences that go along with censure.

Jackson calls President Bush "MR Bush".

Shep is holding Jesse's feet to the fire. Jesse is quoting scripture, for crying out loud.

Jesse Jackson, the biggest Hypocrite of all times, the Rev. Jackson has no place calling for Lott to seek redemption for his actions.

But then, we could all join hands and pray for Lott, ask the Lord to forgive him, ask the Republicans to forgive him, and ask the Blacks to forgive him and push forward..like they did with the most Reverand JJ. Seemed to work for him.

[Mo1]

I have to give Shep credit .. he kept his cool and didn't go off on Jesse

This is weird .. odd .. off the wall

I think I need a drink .. LOL

[Howlin]

Look at the MESS Trent Lott has gotten us into. I am just furious. Just furious!

[Kerberos]

"(Buy out; sell out; shakedown--sounds like the making of a rap song) "

LOL...Send that over to Doug from Upland, I'm sure he can make something out of it.

[goodnesswins]

Well, sounds like the "TALKING POINTS FAX" has gone out....and Jesse is following it....

[tomahawk]

It took a Stupid Party to make and keep Lott Majority Leader until now. It will take an even more Stupid Party to keep him. If they keep him, GOP fundraising will be slammed hard, because few people will want to contribute to a really Stupid Party.

[Mo1]

He is NOT really taking up for Lott, he's calling for censure

That is because he doesn't want Lott to go .. Lott won't be a punching bag for them anymore ..

[Nita Nuprez]

The best thing for blacks would be for Lott to stay, he'll be busy overcompensating to prove he has changed.

The best thing for African-Americans would be to realize why it's in the interest of Jesse Jackson and other power-hungry Democrats to keep them powerless and "on the plantation."

[concerned about politics]

That can't be good news. The only reason that Jesse Jackson would be standing up for Lott would be if there was something in it for Jesse Jackson.

Yep. Lott said he now is for affermative action. (barf)
Time to rally against it.
Right now, I believe the issue is headed for the Supreme Court? If the Supreme Court says it favors one race above another and is unconstitutional, the left wants Washington to over ride the verdict.
Lott should stay , but not as leader right now. He's a beaten dog. Now he's anti-white .

[Mixer]

I cant help but think this guy is either the dumbest man on Earth, or ignorant beyond all possiblity. That or he is right. Which I cant bring myself to think he is.

However, if he is right then what does that say for smith288? ; )

[goodnesswins]

I am now sorry Lott ever left the Democratic party - TRAITOR.....I furious also.
