Why Gang Up on Lott When Rather and Wallace Get Off?

Lott is a recognized leader of the Republican Party; a party that has been stereotyped as racist and Lott's comments only reinforce that mistaken impression and hurt the entire party.

"The liberals would love to see Trent Lott out as Majority Leader"

Why? Lott is one of the best things they've going. Almost as good as Daschle. He and Daschle hatched the agreement that saved Bill Clinton from removal. Nah. I think they want a lot more than to have him step down as Majority Leader. They want him to resign from the Senate so the governor can appoint a new Senator -- a Democrat Senator. I say, no way. Hang in there. If he's forced to step down from the leadership position, then they'll howl until he's forced out of office altogether. Blank 'em if they can't take a joke.

>>>I believe Lott. For several good reasons, but one important one. He would have been crazy to want to imply he supported segregation.

My thoughts, exactly!

>>"Mr. Lott's remarks will be a bludgeon with which to beat the Republican Party mercilessly. Morton Kondracke made this clear on Fox News Channel. "This will be endlessly repeated and used to increase the base vote, the black vote in elections from now on," he said.<<

I couldn't agree more.

Yeah, the American Family Association is made up of a bunch of RINOs who just want a little love from the liberal media.

Yeah, that's the ticket.

Maybe it's because Lott is an inept, ineffective leader.

If Trent Lott caves-in to the race hucksters and resigns his leadership position, then he is the spineless panty-waist cheerleader I've always thought him to be. What suprises me is how many spineless race hucksters are here in a "conservative" forum calling for his head. I guess they think if Trent leaves then the blacks might vote 97% socialist democrat instead of 98%.
