[Reagan Man]

This is real simple. This isn't about the Dixiecrats! That was 1948 and this is almost 2003. This is all about the liberal establishment seeing an opening and taking advantage of an opportunity to blow a minor event out of proportion. This is America's liberal elites spreading their political correctness and employing their race baiting tactics for political gain. You've fallen for their rhetoric and their efforts. Too bad.

Look, Lott was the one who resurrected the issue. Not the Dems.

No, this is about conservatives taking responsibility for mistakes, and not acting like democrats and blaming the other side, downplaying the transgression or playing the moral equivalence game.

This is America's liberal elites spreading their political correctness and employing their race baiting tactics for political gain.

I'm sorry, but saying that the Dixiecrats and segregation was dead wrong is hardly PC, and saying that Lott was insane for even going down this particular road is hardly PC, either - hence the disgust voiced by commentators across the political spectrum.

You've fallen for their rhetoric and their efforts. Too bad.

You've resorted to their tactics. Sad to see.
