You raise the interesting point that this attack on Lott has underlying it an attack on Pickering. That would make just about everyone on this thread very "useful" wouldn't it?

Jerry Oppenheimer s new book STATE OF A UNION: INSIDE THE COMPLEX MARRIAGE OF BILL AND HILLARY CLINTON
In one particularly shocking passage in the book, Oppenheimer quotes a campaign official who describes an angry attack by Hillary in which she screams at him, "You fucking Jew bastard!"
Two sourced eyewitnesses confirmed to Oppenheimer that they heard the verbal assault.
[Dick Morris is not the campaign official.]
"One anti-Semitic slur slung in anger hardly defines a person, and Hillary has always had a tendency when angry to go for the gut," Oppenheimer writes.
But, unfortunately, according to UNION, that was neither the first nor the last time Hillary had used such a slur. And there is a darker side to the story.
In probing Rodham family roots, Oppenheimer writes that Hillary paternal grandmother was known for her violent antipathy toward Jews and Catholics, something Hillary s father heard while growing up.
Oppenheimer discovered from family sources a vein of anti-Semitism that was sparked after Hillary s maternal grandmother got married for the second time to a Jew, a Chicago businessman named Max Rosenberg.
According to the book, Hillary s mother, Dorothy Rodham, held a life-long grudge against Rosenberg, and made Jewish slurs, according to an on the record family member quoted by Oppenheimer.
When asked about Hillary s Jewish connection and the Rosenberg marriage, Hillary s brother, Tony, told Oppenheimer firmly, "It was no big deal. In our family, with my brother, myself, my sister, my mother, my father, we're not Jewish in any way, shape or form."

I dislike Lott as much as the next person. I just don't think I will jump on the Democrat wagon of "let's get him" because they say so. Pot meet Kettle...IMO!
