You cannot say he was wrong in his statements and must resign as ML and then turn around and say we must keep him in the senate to protect our majority. That is bogus and smacks of agenda, if not hypocrisy.

I disagree. Lott as senator of Mississippi speaks for that state, not me. It is that state's business to deal with Trent Lott as they see fit. But Lott as Senate Majority Leader is a significant figure in my political party, and I do not want him to have such a leadership position in the party. Two different issues.

If he was wrong enough for you to call for his head as ML then he is wrong enough for you to call for his head as a senator.


You know why you won't? Because you know he did not mean what everyone is implying and you want to keep power. If Bush said it you would say everyone was putting words into his mouth and that he was talking about States Rights (Which Lott was)

Because he is a Racist? If not then you should be defending his honor in the face of the lies.
