Intelligent people can handle things intelligently. Lott can step down as Majority Leader graciously, and continue to serve, without coming out and "admitting he's a racist."

And, just exactly how would he do that, with the press and the Black Caucus hounding him every day?

Lott has already humiliated himself, and his party, with his words. If he has any cojones, he would swallow his pride and stay on for the good of his party (and his country).

Swallow his pride for the good of his party? What kind of dumbass are you?

You know what I would do if I were Lott? I'd tell all you dumb-sh*ts to pound sand.

Trent Lott could make millions in the private sector as a lobbyist.

Why would he put up with the grief and humiliation from the likes of you?

Lott has to step down because the the 100 megaton political ads the 'rats are going to make, which will KILL the Republicans in the next elections, as more blacks than ever before go out and vote 99.9% 'rat.

Just imagine the Lott voice "we wouldn't have had all these problems..." over video of police dogs at Selma, Martin Luthor King marching, elderly blacks signing up to vote for the first time in their lives in 1965...

That ad will KILL us.

Lott has to go. He is a liability, an albatross, he has to go.

Swallow his pride for the good of his party? What kind of dumbass are you?

Uh oh... namecalling?

Okay... Let me tell you what kind of a dumbass I am. I am the kind of dumbass who expects my party leaders to behave graciously at public functions.

I am the kind of dumbass who expects good Republicans to do the right thing. When they screw up to that degree, hurting their party, they should accept responsibility and step down.

I am the kind of dumbass who doesn't want to see my party "going Clinton;" kowtowing to idiotic screw-ups in the name of power.

I am the kind of dumbass who would expect a screw-up to turn around and do right by his party, after inflicting such a major wound on it.

If you were Lott's spokesman, you would have just made the case against him. It's not about America, it's not about the GOP...it's about Lott. That's his #1 problem, always has been. Lott, the has-been GOP Senate Leader.
