Hello. Um, everyone knows that. That's not what anyone is talking about. No one in this thread is suggesting that Sen. Lott is a racist. That's a given here.

Then what was troubling in his statement?

I got it the first time I heard it, I knew he was not racist. You said "But what Sen. Lott *did* say is very troubling", so I assume you thought it was a racist statement. If not, then what was troubling?

I am sorry but I think this whole thing is about various agendas and no matter how much I want a new majority leader I will not say that praising a man who defended States Rights is "Troubling".
