It'd help if LOTT would zip his lip as well.
Before this we were hearing that he should speak up. Now, we are told he should shut up. I'm sure he has been given advice from all sides. Trying to clear his name and do the right thing will never be enough for some. It wouldn't matter what he did or didn't do. Some people are going to trash him no matter what.
One day I hope that we wake up and figure out that we need to tell the race baiters to shut up and stay out of our faces. The people who believe the Republican Party is any worse at race issues than the Democratic Party aren't paying attention anyway.
