Trent Lott didn't do anything to damage the spirit of our country. Lott was at a birthday party and made a few stupid comments. The liberal establishment has used this to define Trent Lott, all conservatives and all Republicans. You have fallen pry to the rhetorical outbursts, political correctness and race baiting of the liberal establishment. Either way this situation turns out, we lose and the liberals win, but the level of that loss will be much higher if we allow the leftwing to dictate the terms of victory. I say, we should defend Trent Lott, screw the liberal elites and move on best we can. And I suggest PresBush keep his mouth closed!

I haven't fallen for anything. I am fully aware of the spin going on.

I am, however, free to make up my own mind. I think he's too inept to lead the party anymore. He IS the story now, not the country.

Lott was at a birthday party and made a few stupid comments.

His comments went way beyond stupid. For cryin' out loud, the Dixiecrats were one of the most despicable political movements in this country's history. Among other things, they opposed a federal law banning LYNCHING. They and their ilk forever tainted the noble concept of state's rights by trying to wrap it around their racist positions. And Lott said we might have avoided some "problems" if the rest of the country had followed Mississippi's lead and voted for Strom. That's just insane. Someone that dense, that oblivious to history and political sensitivities is not qualified to be the party leader in the Senate.

"Trent Lott didn't do anything to damage the spirit of our country."

Not true. He deep-sixed the Impeachment Trial. 'Pod
