A member of the "Checked Pants Crowd" is a country club or other milk-toast Republican or independent that has made compromise after compromise weakening our nation and society, but feels proud thinking at least he or she hasn't been wringing hands as all slips away.

A member of the Check Pants Crowd will:

-Make ridiculous apologetic remarks after being called a racist (without substantiaton) like Trent Lott.

-Won't call Clinton a traitor despite loss of national secrets and treasure.

-Not resign but rather allow himself, like Gingrich, to have his tongue held because of threats his own adultery might be revealed.

-Like the California Republican leadership, push and promote the weakest, most Democrat like candidates.

The best example is the litttle story told by David Horowitz. Two Republicans are tied to posts next to each other and prepared as victims for a firing squad. The first loudly objects to the application of a blindfold. The second says, "Shhhh! We don't want to cause trouble!"

There you have Savage's definition of "Checked Pants Crowd."

I despise Trent Lott. I've called Bill Clinton a murderer. I was and still am furious with Newt Gingrich. I am on the phone to Congress almost every day giving the so called Republicans grief when needed. So I guess I don't belong to that crowd and I still say Savage is a CLASSLESS JERK! And, I've read everything David Horowitz has written.
