You have the right to speak your mind. You do not have a right to have the really stupid ideas you choose to express taken seriously and treated with respect. You have the right to keep silent and merely be thought a fool. You also have the right to open your mouth and remove all remaining doubt.
Trent Lott's "speech"--if you can call it that--was a tribute to the most honored Senator of the present era. It did not call for feedback, except from wacko fanatics and Leftists looking to make angry statements for the purpose of creating division among Conservatives, and intimidating the susceptible into not criticizing the socio-political fruits of "Liberalism." Whoever heard of making a poltical issue out of a brief toast-like compliment to one being honored? What you are calling "feedback," is moreover, a demand that he be purged from a position of Senate leadership--and for what? An historic opinion on a political election that took place 54 years ago! If this all seems rational to you, perhaps there really is a "dummkopf" on this thread.

I would be more than happy to have anyone judge the intellectual contents of my posts on this thread vs. your posts on this thread. Let us just leave it at that. We will both be known by our work product. Fair enough?
