Just how vicious could it be...

I concede that the term vicious was an exaggeration.

[Sabertooth]

Now I'm telling you that you missed, Lott will be staying. See my previous post.

Lott is a dead man talking. He's not the most valuable player, he's been the weakest link for years.

The GOP isn't about to leap into the swirling bowl with him.

[jwalsh07]

Tell me, what is admirable about hamstringing our Senate, letting the Dems make us the Party of Lott, and couging up the Legislative and Executive Branches in two years, just because it galls you to concede a lost and worthless cause to the Democrats?

My defense of Lott was a simple matter for me. Since I didn't believe he was a racist, I do believe in redemption and I find loyalty in bad times an admirable trait, I was locked in.

And if you or anybody else doesn't like it, that's life.

[Sabertooth]

I find loyalty in bad times an admirable trait, I was locked in.

When the Japanese took the Philippines, should MacArthur have stayed and fought it out?

Thurmond went on to reject segregation, become a Republican, and serve his country well as a U.S. senator.

Ann Coulter

Exactly, which is why nobody has a problem with Thurmond. LOTT stupidly praised Thurmond's stance before Thurmond changed it, which is why all the brouhaha.

[KansasConservative]

The GOP isn't about to leap into the swirling bowl with him.

What do you make of tonight's news that most of the Republican Senators want him to stay? Last night I thought he was a goner.

[jwalsh07]

I have good news: there is life after Kool Aid.

You should get out more.

But we'll see what happens.

[Sabertooth]

LOTT stupidly praised Thurmond's stance before Thurmond changed it, which is why all the brouhaha.

It doesn't seem that hard to understand, does it?

[TLBSHOW]

You lose apes. Isn't the du calling yu and your friends

,.,.,..,.,

This whole brouhaha is about a

former Democrat

praising another

former Democrat

for what was once a Democrat policy.

Ann Coulter

The democrat policy is racism

TLBSHOW

[outpost44]

But its Lotts PRIVATE LIFE....

You take yourself much too seriously, this is politics, not war. And generals never become sargents.

[ApesForEvolution]

"I only hope that once and for all America can have an open and frank debate about race in this country."

Me Three! Lott couldn't lead the herd of cats before, he doesn't have a prayer now.

He'll be gone from ML and in the Senate by Christmas, if not Friday at 5:30 eastern time.

He was jeopardizing the conservative agenda and we weren't going to get to the playoffs and WIN. THOSE ARE THE STAKES. You don't understand what Lott was, is and will always be.

In fact, it appeared that, in patent LIMPA-LOTT, RAT-genuflecting style, he was willing to sabotage the whole season...all because of...the Trent, his stupid, indefensible and wrong-headed comments as Leader-designate...with cameras rolling!!

And, what's worst of all...is that SOME want him to stay after all this patent Lott crap! Unbefrigginlievable!!!

[jwalsh07]

I like Ann but she's wrong there. They aren't democrats, they are republicans.

[FreedomFlyer]

YOU WROTE: "I'm totally confused because Carville seemed sincere. ???"

---

Don't buy it.

Carville wants to do the attack ads on Lott the way they did on Gingrich. Gingrich, who was a pretty innocuous guy, came out looking like Attilla the Hun and the Republicans lost all they had gained. Carville doesn't want the issue to go away by Lott stepping down.

We now know how the story was spread. It appeared in "Notes" but few noticed it. It was Carville and Sid Blumenthal who were the first to spread the story, along with the negative spin. They called or emailed everyone they knew--then the liberal bloggers got on board, then the conservative bloggers, then the Washington Post, then everybody.

[Sabertooth]

What do you make of tonight's news that most of the Republican Senators want him to stay? Last night I thought he was a goner.

It's a perforated trial balloon, at best. It's not unkown for dead chickens to twitch.

[my right]

Of course Carville would love to see Lott remain SML. This ought to tell all of you Lott apologists something.

[EternalVigilance]

They are able to do this because the republicans do not stand up to assaults that have any reference to race.

Bull. I remember some Conservative instigated referendums in certain states that disallowed the kind of race-based discrimination endorsed by Lott on BET...seems to me Republicans held up quite well to the pressure...and succeeded wildly. Polls show that a large majority of Americans agree with us on this issue.

Republicans have made great strides in working towards a color-blind society, at great personal cost, and over a very long period of time.

Your statement is an insult to all of those who have labored so mightily in this cause. It's not true, it is simply an attempt to shore up your faulty thesis that somehow because we wouldn't defend Lott's stupidity, we will somehow be open to the race-baiters tactics. Nothing could be further from the truth. You're fear-mongering. The true surrender would have been for the whole party to have followed Lott down his destructive path. He's the one the left has by the short hairs...no one else.

This has all been about Trent Lott from beginning to end. 99% of conservatives are not racists, and the left has gotten a big shock because this debacle has ultimately done nothing except highlight that fact. The American people are seeing that clearly, why can't you?

[Darling Lili]

Lott is a fine fellow; he just has some sort of liberal-Tourette's syndrome that makes him spout Democrat ideas at random. A few years ago, Lott practically wanted to give the adulterous Air Force pilot Kelly Flinn a silver star for her service.

Earth to Ann: People are weary of Lott's "liberal-Tourette's syndrome" which is why they want him to step down.

Lott's "liberal-Tourette's syndrome" has hurt his party and his president's agenda. What the hell happens when a non-affirmative action, judicial nominee vote comes before the Senate? With a nearly 50-50 split, I wonder how Lott will vote now, after his "promises" on BET?

Either way he's screwed, the idiot.

War is politics by other means.

It is the natural/logical extension of Politics.
