Lordy be. Where is Jesse Jacka$$ when we need him.

EXCELLENT COMPLIATION....VERY IMPRESSIVE.

Now we need to send this off to the media.....fax this to Fox!

To be fair and balanced there should be some mention of the democrat bigots of color. We must not leave out Jesse Jackson's "Hymietown," Donna "we ain't gonna let the white boys win this one" Brazille's racie rants, the two Mckinneys' repeated verbal assaults on Jews and whites in general, Al "Diamond Merchant" Sharpton's attack on Jews, of course Louie "it's a gutter religion" Farrakan, and Charles "I wanna slap a white person for my mental health" Barron---the list of black democrat hate mongers is as long as the one of their white bigots.

Good...the Dems are the real racists.

Sean Hannity was right....let's really air this issue fully!

Is there a double standard? Sure. What of it?

The fact is, the media feeding frenzy is keeping this issue in plain view. I'm curious how they will feel when they get McConnell or Nickles as the new majority leader.

Lott won't step down. He will resign. Mississipi has a Democratic Governor. He will appoint a Democrat to replace Lott. When Chaffe or Snowe move over to the Democratic side the NEW MAJORITY leader in 2003 will be DASCHEL. McConnell or Nickles will be the new MINORITY leader.

Hug a RINO today. If they bolt, the true conservatives lose the power of the majority.

Great thread. Thanks for the effort.

They don't care, the important thing is Trent Lott's scalp, everything else is secondary.

Yes, Clinton called Fulbright his “mentor,” but some how you feel that isn’t praising Fulbright’s past? You sound like some sort of Clinton apologist if you ask me. At least Lott’s innocent gaffe was just an attempt to make an old man happy rather than erecting a statue of the segregationist he though of as a mentor and visionary.

Is this not the largest example of hypocrisy, selective moral outrage, and demagoguery?

[Republican_Strategist]

I agree we need to start a freeper campaign to get this out to as many voices as possible to counter the DNC-Liberal Media attack. Do I know you from the old days of Yahoo! Clubs? Same rwfromkansas?

It is a given that the democrats are hypocrites. So what. Does that mean that the republicans are going to get any mileage off that? No. Republicans can't afford to be hypocrites. That is Life. Get used to it. Democrats can be racists and there is not political fallout. Republicans are held to a higher standard. Frankly I'm glad we are.

That said, do you think there is any political gain for the republicans if they insist on throwing their unqualified support behind Lott? I am distancing myself from him. I don't need an idiot as the face of leadership in my party. Sorry.

Clinton is not quite as stupid as Lott. Notice that Clinton did not praise Fulbright for his segregatist past...and Lott never praised Thurmond for his segregationist past - he said only that had Strom been elected prez we wouldn't have the problems we have today - like maybe bloated government, weakened defense structure, out of control judiciary, misdirected budgets, government policies derived from political correctness, etc. etc.....

Allow me to give you a slap in the face for that condescending rant.

It isn’t about me wanting the republicans to be held to a lower standard. It is about me wanting the democrats to be held to a higher standard, but for some reason you just felt you’d go hurling accusations like some crazed Clinton War Room on a rampage. You want them to be allowed to attack republicans over things they do and worse. Some republican you are.

And for your information, I have long supported ousting Lott as a majority leader, but obviously you feel that you can interpret my motivations, which aren’t suggested in the post, as being some sort of effort to empower Lott and keep him as majority leader. You make about as much sense as the N.Y. Times editorial page. crazed Clinton War Room on a rampage. You seem quite content on the status quo of giving the democrats a free pass to bad
