Please ping THIS thread. :o)

Although it would have been EASIER for thise of us who wanted to read Dennis Prager's wonderful commentary if they had let you post a link to THIS thread, and then LOCKED your duplicate thread, instead of PULLING it altogether...

If Lott would have followed this strategy, not only would this have already blown over, he'd be widely respected for the way that he handled the situation.

Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.

Perfect.

Had Lott said something akin to this, he would have been forgiven. There would have been some grumbling, there would have been some hand-wringing. But in the larger picture, Lott would have been viewed as a statesman, and an honorable man.

Instead, we're left with this sniveling, groveling, mewling animal who looks like the sick monkey on the Sprint commercials.

Lott handed the right the KY and bent over. And he's doing his level best to get the rest of the Right to do the same damn thing.

The issue is not whether Trent Lott, the man, can be forgiven for his awful comments. He can be forgiven.

The issue is whether or not Lott even NEEDS "forgiveness".

The ONLY thing the man is guilty of is saying some flattering remarks to a senile old geezer who happened to continue breathing long enough to become 100 years old.
For this, the 'Rat poverty pimps wish to crucify him on the cross of political correctness, joined by a mob of spineless RINOs who're willing to capitulate to their extortive demands.

It seems clear to just about every Republican other than Trent Lott that the senator should step down as Senate majority leader.

Great opening line... to bad it isn't the truth at least not at this stage as incompetent Lott must go and the party must now try once again to recoup from the damage it has caused itself.

Should Lott Remain as Senate Leader?

ABC News/Washington Post Poll. Dec. 12-15, 2002. N=1,209 adults nationwide. MoE ± 3. Field work by TNS Intersearch.
						.
"Trent Lott, who is the Republican leader of the U.S. Senate, recently said the country would be better off if Strom Thurmond were elected president in 1948, when Thurmond ran as a segregationist favoring separation of blacks and whites. Lott later apologized for the comment. Do you think Lott should or should not continue to serve as Republican leader of the Senate?"

Lott should apologize to Republicans for suggesting that Thurmond would have been better than the GOP candidate, Thomas Dewey. The guy can't even be loyal to his own party.

Excellent post. Bill Clinton and Lott very similiar egomaniacs.

[VRWC For Truth]

Bump. Heave ho, over the side Lott go.
