Sure if every dot connection ALWAYS leads to racism and that is the only connect the dot picture the race industry ever draws.
Let's be reasonable here, okay? I agree that the hypocritical dems are constantly making mountains out of molehills when it comes to Replublicans and making molehills out of mountains when it comes to their own. That's their nature. And thank god we're not like them, I say.
But are you seriously trying to convince me that Lott's statements were only very loosely tied to issues of race? That this is merely the dems "playing the race card" yet again? If so, I think you need to go back and read Lott's statement again. He said as plain as day that if Thurmond had been President when he ran in 1948 -- a race that any idiot should know he ran on a segregationist platform -- we'd be better off today.
Now, you tell me, is Lott a racist or is he just stupid? Either way, he shoved his foot so far in his mouth that he kicked his own ass right out of being majority leader. We can't blame this one on the dems playing the race card. This is the political equivalent to the winner of the Darwin awards.
