I think you're wrong. I think that just as soon as the slightest, credible charge of "racism" is leveled, all other discussion will stop.

This thing has become a monster, all because our people chose to imitate a deer in the headlights.

This thing has become a monster...

Perhaps a 'little' diversion is in order to slay this beast..hmmm?

"I think you're wrong. I think that just as soon as the slightest, credible charge of "racism" is leveled, all other discussion will stop."

The operative word being "credible," of course.

Don't worry. I doubt there are too many more powerful Republicans standing in line to publicly applaud segregationism.

You're right.

"Our people" should have handed Lott a script, shoved a collective arm up his butt, and worked his mouth while he told his detractors to go to hell: he was advocating state's rights while complimenting an old man at his birthday party. Thinking he was smart enough to diffuse this gaffe by himself, they didn't, and Lott reverted to type.

By the way... if Lott hadn't imitated a deer in the headlights on BET, we wouldn't all be wondering, now, how he's going to vote when a non-affirmative action judicial nominee comes up.
