I have not been defending anything except that Lott is not a racist. The fact that people are falling for this crap again makes me sick. If Trent Lott was so bad why the heck has he been elected over and over again. Why were people willing to keep him around if he was so sorry?
You are trying to paint a person as something they aren't. If you all want to keep going down this road fine. Who will be next? I am not willing to give in again because someone decides AFTER YEARS of electing a man that he is now unfit for office because his enemies say he is.
