But none of us are the GOP leader on the Senate. Lot is a veteran politician and knew better. Since he knew better, why did he do it? This was only speech #12,500 or so for him.
He is human. He makes mistakes. GW said something the other day like 'we want to put food on the family' instead of we want to put food on the table. Does that mean he wants to start food fights??
Lott should not have said what he said, but he apologized. Why can't people take that at face value?
No I am not the leader of the senate, but what I say does matter to a lot of people every day. Thank the Lord above that if I mis-speak, most will understand and know my character enough to know if something was truly a mistake. Most don't look for hidden meanings.
