Trent Lott has never said his ability to lead was in jeopardy. Trent Lott's ability to lead is in jeopardy because of his inability to stand on his principles. My doubts in Trent have nothing to do with his comments at Thurmaonds B-Day party, My doubts in Trent Lott started tonight when he said he "SUPPORTED" affirmative action. Ray Charles can see through that bold face lie and that fact is that he has never supported affirmative action.

To the dismay of some conservatives, the Bush administration plans to file a legal brief by an Aug. 10 deadline backing a Department of Transportation program designed to help black and other minority highway contractors, the sources say.

The case, arising from a challenge by a white contractor in Colorado, is the first big test for affirmative action in George W. Bush's presidency.

The White House's apparent reluctance to shut the door on race-conscious policies already is drawing fire from conservatives who expected Bush to reject measures they say discriminate against whites. Liberals say they are heartened by the move.
