Maybe Bush is letting the senate deal with their own issue. Why is that weak?

Yes, he did stand up to them and all Lott had to do was properly follow up. He failed to do that. He held a weak press conference and then disappeared. Oh, he's going to be on BET tonight, but where was he this morning? Why wasn't he out there fending off questions himself instead of expecting the senators to carry his water for him?

Bush should NOT come down on Lott's side because it's not his decision. It's for the senate republicans to decide.

If Lott had appeared before the TV cameras the first couple of days and handled this thing properly it would have been a dead issue. The race baiters would have been silenced, but did he do that? Oh no, he was on VACATION and that was too important to him. Just like not calling a vote in November on Homeland Security was not important enough for him, or the Terrorist Insurance bill that was holding up thousands of building contracts. Within days of it's passing the company I work for got the go ahead on three projects that had been put on hold. We immediately started calling men back to work.

Bush has given Lott plenty of chances and this fiasco has absolutely nothing to do with Bush, or racism for that matter either.
