[Mudboy Slim]

"he borrowed my term"

Yep...Limbaugh FReeps...MUD

[Landru]

"And I reckon that President Reagan should have resigned when the Left branded him a Nazi sympathizer for visiting Bitburg cemetery?"

Precisely.
Or any other number of cheap-shot smears & accusations made by the demonic, insane left upon dozens & dozens of our leaders & people, for that matter.

"Daschle & Co. are playin' folks in the GOP like a fiddle."

It's NOT even the ignorant puppet-imp da-Hole, either, j.
How 'bout the poverty-pimp duo being taken seriously enough by ANYONE -- on our side of the isle -- for 'em to eeeeeeven contemplate doing harm to one of our own, hmmmmm?

"Credibility" ain't their strong suite & never has been, either.
Not exactly anything, "new" about the fact they're liars & freaks. ~Nothing new, a'tall.

But one would never know it reading some of these comments.

"Hell, why do they even worry about winning back the Oval Office, when it's obvious they are the de facto occupants."

Excellent question.
Suppose if we took that question right to the top, we'd get an answer?
Where's our leadership taking the initiative to step up & using the BULLY PULPIT, denounce this slander?

btw, & fyi?
I'm neither, "quitting" nor, "lacking confidence."
You been talking to that kid too much, sounds like to me.
I'm mean enough to bite the head off a rattlesnake while nooking it, OK?

What I am is fed-up with the fair weather flakes our side of the ideological isle seems to draw like flies to a garbage heap.
Same one's who're directly responsible for KILLING the, "Republican Revolution of '94" by permitting specious comments to be attributed to Newt Gingrich at his exwife's bedside; while, their Fueher was getting BLOWJOBS from a 21 year old government EMPLOYEE while on government TIME & on government PROPERTY!
The same people who accepted the argument that Clintigula's sexual pacadillos were, "His personal business" therefore we should just move on while Newt's marriage, wasn't?

Yes, the exact same people one can find right here, today, calling for this Lott character's head for comment(s) they *think* he said because that's what they've been TOLD he meant?
Nuts.

I suspect MANY of these troublemaking miscreants are comprised of ex-Brigadiers, Libertarian-losers salted with a generous number of sleeper 'Rats.
*All* of which who've some mighty sore sphincters given the number of times their collective butts have been kicked in the free & open election process.

Moment the going gets -- even a *bit* -- dicey?
This, "brave lot" heads for the high ground throwing any & everyone in their panicked scramble right under the proverbial bus.

That's why I'm ashamed to be associated with 'em.

...they're cowards of the worst order.

[CyberCowboy777]

But if he was evil enough to call for his ML resignation why is he not evil enough to call for his complete resignation?

[TLBSHOW]

he should not apologize at all except to say he is sorry he has to work with racist democrats.

[TLBSHOW]

If he does apologize again today will that put a end to this attack by the right wing and I say that LMAO and put an end to this?

[aristeides]

And Byrd is still chairman of the powerful Appropriations Committee, as well as president pro tem, fourth in the line of presidential succession.

[Enterprise]

Of course I realize it is Lott. But I can always hope can't I.

[Enterprise]

I didn't miss any boat. I am in my OWN boat. I have railed anngrily in the past about Lott's appeasement policies towards the RATS. I still get angry if I think about it enough about how hard Republicans worked to Elect President Bush, and that immediately after the elections Lott caved into Daschle in the "spirit" of bi-partisanship and power sharing. I love Michelle Malkin, but I can independently come to many of the same conclusions as she can.

[dfwgator]

And I reckon that President Reagan should have resigned when the Left branded him a Nazi sympathizer for visiting Bitburg cemetery?"

Hooey!!! Look, I disagreed with Reagan going to Bitburg, but Reagan never apologized for it, and he did make an eloquent explanation of why he felt it was the right thing to do. I didn't with it, but I respected the decision. That is a far cry from Lott, who simply chose the wrong words, and then apologized, even he knew there was no possible justification for the remarks.

[Austin Willard Wright]

I simply meant to say that you "missed the boat" in the sense of even dreaming that Lott is capable of revenge. Lott is an congenital appeaser and, as such, does not belong as majority leader.

[aristeides]

There's no possible justification for Lott's remarks if they're taken seriously. But he was joking. How many of us could survive having all our jokes played up in the media?

[Austin Willard Wright]

Lott never said he was joking. His latest version is that was praisining Thurmond on national defense!

[Howlin]

Lott should just apologize, shut up, and not run for Majority Leader next year. End of subject.

Agreed. And so should Drudge.

When, exactly, did Drudge stop naming sources?

[jla]

Where's our leadership taking the initiative to step up & using the BULLY PULPIT, denounce this slander?

Nancy's lookin' after him, until Our Lord's angels come for him.

btw, & fyi? I'm neither, "quitting" nor, "lacking confidence." You been talking to that kid too much, sounds like to me. I'm mean enough to bite the head off a rattlesnake while nooking it, OK?

No need to get your dander up. I just mistook your disgust for some elected officials for resignation.

I'm glad I was wrong. Sorry the rattler can't say the same thing though!

We're gonna whup 'em...I firmly believe that.

[CyberCowboy777]

"It is for the people of Mississippi to decide", what a crock. We all have the duty to stand for the Truth and Justice and if Lott is Evil we should be CALLING for his resignation. We all did it with Congressman Condit from California just because he MAY have had something to do with a woman's disappearance.

If as the Left is saying Lott is a Racist then he IS evil and we ALL should be calling for his resignation as a Senator.

If he is not a Racist and his statements were about States Rights then we should NOT be using the Left Accusations as a motor to push our agenda of getting a new Majority Leader.

We should be fighting the left and is race baiting, anti-States Right agenda. We choose our Majority Leader through a vote of our representatives, not through fain indignation and lies.

And IF you believe his statements were racist and you won't call for his complete resignation from the senate you are a hypocrite and scum. Just like the democrats who said Clinton was wrong but would not impeach.

[Landru]

I'll ask you the same question I asked another esteemed poster; who, essentially made the same remark(s) you have, Sir.
Ready?

Produce a quote -- any quote -- made by Trent Lott which led you to your conclusion.
I will NOT accept YOUR -- or anyone elses -- OPINION of what the man, "meant," any paraphrases (by anyone), or inuendo.
Specifically, I want you to retrieve exactly what Lott said which was, "racist," in any way, shape or form.

Now go get'em, my friend.
Remember: you need to find a, "smoking gun" as anything else will be unacceptable.
Keep in mind as you search it's, "anything else" the man's being excoriated for, right now.

...I'll be waiting.

[Landru]

"No need to get your dander up."

Well I'm a, "fir-ly danderful man!" (~charlie daniels band)

"I just mistook your disgust for some elected officials for resignation."

Fair enough. (~up with the, "Getting To Know You" soundtrack...)

"I'm glad I was wrong. Sorry the rattler can't say the same thing though!"

HA!
Hell's bells, you can see that ol' rattler anytime you want.
He's now my boots!

"We're gonna whup 'em...I firmly believe that."

...& I firmly believe you. ;^)

[Mr Ducklips]

Nickles as Michael Jackson?

Hee-hee. But can he moon-walk?

MJ=Brain-lock. How about ML?

[itsahoot]

Did anyone oppose Lott on the Nov 13th election? I thought Nickles was going to make a run for ML.

They made him a counter offer he could not refuse.

[Enterprise]

"I simply meant to say that you "missed the boat" in the sense of even dreaming that Lott is capable of revenge. Lott is an congenital appeaser and, as such, does not belong as majority leader."

I could not have said it better! Thank you.
