[Ol'Grey Head]

Everyone knows this is just "I gotta" demogogery. What a person says spontaneously should NEVER be used to judge them, it is insidious and mean to do so. The only way to judge Lott is by his record over the last 15 to 20 years. Hopefully that record is solid or why was he ever given the power he has. We live in a society which has replaced logic, science, and thought with superstition, dogma, and fear.

Lott "spontaneously" said the same damn thing 22 years ago. He probably said it in college, too, when he acknowledges that he was a segregationist. He probably has said it many times behind closed doors, too.
