James Baker asked Lamar where his loyalty lay..... To his constituents or to the men in the Bush 41 administration who got him elected to the Senate.
The fact he appears now as a muddleheaded meddler is because he is paying a political debt.
He hs two names now...Lamer and Muddlehead.
It is stomach-churning to recall that the Alexander bozo once thought he was presidential material. His presence begs the question: How the hell does the Senate of the United States attract and perpetuate such mediocrities? How does Tennesee? (And I include Fred Thompson who was perhaps the laziest Senator to grace the hallowed halls of Congress since Senator Bilbo departed.)
