You should re-read the post, I did not call you scum.
I was railing against those who has decided that Lott is a racist, should resign as Majority Leader on moral grounds, but should stay in the Senate to preserve the GOP majority.
I understand your point and apologize if I came on too strong. I do not think you are wrong to want a new ML based on Lott's performance (this episode being the last straw).
I do think that those who believe he is a racist should be calling for his total resignation. To say he is a racist but they want to keep him in the senate just to hold power makes them just as much scum as the democrats that said Clinton was wrong but would not impeach him.
