I missed this interview. Did he say that he is now going to work for affirmative action?

Even more than that, he said he has used affirmative action and that the proof is the minorities he has hired!

I didn't see it myself either, but a freeper posted the quote and assured me it was accurate. I'll go find it.

Here's the quote:

"I'm for that," Lott said when asked by Gordon again. "I'm for affirmative action and I've practiced it. I've had African Americans on my staff and other minorities, but particularly African Americans, since the mid-1970s."
