"Go choke on your kumbaya bend over. You ain't got the stomach for a culture war homey."

Your juvenile ghetto rhetoric is self-defeating.

Unfortunately, you appear to be blinded by hostility and/or ignorance to the gravity of vacant Lott's faux paus. It is equivalent to Jim McDermott and David Bonior going to Baghdad and criticizing Bush. Lott reinforces all of the suspicions (fair or unfair) that minorities and touchy feeling soccor moms have for conservatives. Just as the Baghdad Boys reinforced all of the suspicions mainstream Americans have about liberal democrats and the use of military force.

You sound like the Buchaniite fringe. Righteously indignant but also absolutely powerless and ineffective.

Fine. Roll over and enjoy it. You won't get a blip of crossover from black voters on this one and are only empowering our foes.

If you think standing up to political correctness even for the doofuss Lott is wrong then so be it. I don't. I'd be glad to see him gone but not under the boot heel of Dems and collaborative Republicans.

Yep....I'm big on taking a stand on the culture war. I have a profile page(where's yours?)...you can read all about it. I'm no Buchananite....you are too funny. I was broken glass for Bush but now I am not sure on this issue. I do like Bush no doubt but he's no serious conservative. He's a moderate Pubbie. Fine...he is a very good war leader and that counts for a lot in my book. I didn't agree on everything with Ronaldus Maximus either.

I don't like Lott at all(and I and my family know him and have had dealings with him)...never have but I despise caving over the usual race smear garbage even more.

I also despise the blantant double standard ALWAYS at play over this issue.

Conservatives fear being branded a racist or sexist or homophobe more than just about anything and with the media's dutiful compliance and our own lack of spine we simply roll over every time. Neither the Dems or Blacks or Latinos or Media are going to recognize toppling Lott as anything other than the lack of spine that it is and our foes will only be further encouraged. Somewhere somebody is going to have to stand up.

You prefer the other route hoping it will matter vote wise. I wouldn't hold my breath.
