		<description>I&#039;m a life-long liberal, just had to get that out of the way. Kerry is not the decorated war veteran some say. Just gotta say that an officer that abandoned his men is a coward and has no place deciding policy and leading others. Both his joke and Lott&#039;s weren&#039;t said out of prejudice or mean spiritedness, just perceived that way. Perception is the reality in which we all live. Anyways, we all know Trent Lott is a racist, just look at all of the Council of Conservative Citizens (C of CC or the uptown Klan)recruitment literature.</description>

		<description>Two years ago I would have agreed with you about Lott. He isn&#039;t really a racist (By our standards anyway, but I know everyone who lives in Mississippi is a racist to you enlightened ones.) But he played the Southern Strategy Card often. 

However, you guys are missing the point Lott&#039;s election was about Bush vs McCain. Lott and McCain have become good friends since Lott&#039;s fall from grace as they both share a common hatred and sense of betrayal towards W.  This is really the GOP picking an experienced  leader and foil to the administration.   McCain is consolidating his power base in prepartion for the 2008 run.  This will give him more control over what bills will pass. This is really good news for moderates, as McCain will now distance himself from the Bush Administration, and try to get some things passed that will help him in his bid for the Presidency. The Interesting thing is Hillary is going to be doing the same thing, as will 8 other senators.</description>

		<description>Yeah, racism was a great boon for this country.  This just shows beyond a shadow of a doubt that Republicans are inherently racist.  End of story.

		<description>Here is some text from the 1948 Dixiecrat Platform that Senator Lott endorsed which cost him his Senate leadership post:

4. We stand for the segregation of the races and the racial integrity of each race; the constitutional right to choose one&#039;s associates; to accept private employment without governmental interference, and to learn one&#039;s living in any lawful way. We oppose the elimination of segregation, the repeal of miscegenation statutes, the control of private employment by Federal bureaucrats called for by the misnamed civil rights program. 

5. We oppose and condemn the action of the Democratic Convention in sponsoring a civil rights program calling for the elimination of segregation, social equality by Federal fiat, regulations of private employment practices, voting, and local law enforcement.

6. We affirm that the effective enforcement of such a program would be utterly destructive of the social, economic and political life of the Southern people, and of other localities in which there may be differences in race, creed or national origin in appreciable numbers.

Sounds like someone hates America.

What a backwards-assed, narrow-minded HILLBILLY.</description>

		<description>Everyone knows what Kerry meant
You got to love the Chicken Hawk White House calling for John Kerry, a decorated Vietnam War veteran, to apologize to troops.

Kerry&#039;s botched joke -- or whatever that was -- provides the Bush administration a nice, little one-day diversion from the mess that is Iraq on the way to the mid-term elections. But everyone knows what Kerry was trying to say -- even the most diehard Bush hugger --  and everyone knows exactly what Kerry wasn&#039;t trying to say. He wasn&#039;t trying to say that if you&#039;re stupid you end up in Iraq; he was trying say that if you&#039;re privileged you get to avoid military service (and maybe even end up as the Chicken-Hawk-In-Chief sending others to do the fighting.) Check out this book if you have a chance: AWOL: The Unexcused Absence of America&#039;s Upper Classes From Military Service and How It Hurts Our Country. 

This is classic Swift Boat politics -- the effort to turn a strength (Kerry&#039;s military veteran creds) into a negative.

It works -- or, at least it did in 2004 -- for a president and the White House eager for distraction as the casualties mount in Iraq, as military leaders become convinced that a timetable for withdrawal is necessary to force the Iraqi government to action, as reports emerge about unaccounted-for weapons and wasted millions on reconstruction and estimates of hundreds of thousands of civilian deaths. What we&#039;ll have is mountain-out-of-mole-hill, radio talk show controversy for a day or so, then &quot;Kerry&#039;s insult&quot; will go away, and soon enough it will be Election Day. It can&#039;t get here fast enough.

		<description>What I found astounding was how the liberals castigated Trent Lott unrelentingly for his kind words to an old man at his 100th birthday party on one hand and on the other with a straight face said John Kerry only &quot;blew the joke&quot; when he insulted U.S. troops. You then proceeded to criticize the republicans for knowing what John Kerry meant but not admitting it.  Maybe just maybe democrats knew what Trent Lott meant when he praised Thurmond. You people don&#039;t have a double standard do you? HAHAHAHA</description>

		<description>Helmet hair is usually a sign of a toupee.
I agree w/Kindness; Lott has actually said some stuff in the past
year that makes some sense, but I have absolutely no room for
racists in or out of congress.</description>

I agree w/Kindness; Lott has actually said some stuff in the past<br />
year that makes some sense, but I have absolutely no room for<br />
racists in or out of congress.<a href="javascript:void(0)" title=""  onmouseover="window.status=''; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" onclick="ddrc_popup('http://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/plugins/dd-report-comments/report.php?c=1137792', 400, 400)"></a></p>

		<description>While Republicans are electing leaders who are corrupt, and in the pocket of lobbyist, the entire NECON controlled media is swiftboating MURTHA for an unproven allegation of 26 years ago.

The real reason is Murtha&#039;s position on quick redeployment which is not in the interest of Israel.  Olmert&#039;s visit also had this agenda. Dont withdraw from Iraq and push America to do its dirty work  and attack Iran .</description>

		<description>What is with the Republican&#039;s propensity to elect people with helmet hair?  Lott, Frist, that other guy...number two under Hastert, I think, begins with a &quot;B&quot;.  Scary.</description>

		<description>I am a Republican, proud to be so.  But Trent Lott is an idiot, as are, apparently, 25 of the senators.  

At least we won&#039;t have to look at his face in the 2008 presidential race.

I hope!</description>
