Clong What !!!!!!! Am I reading this right ??
==============================================
Not sure what the Dem's have to do with it. He was driven off by his own party. He wouldn't have had the votes to remain Majority Leader.
==============================================
Can I ask a Question like where the hell have you been ?????? all of the Racial hysteria has been brought to us by your friendly Racebaiting Democrats.

I personally am glad Lott had to step down, but not because of his comments. What he said was wrong but he has apologized. SO MUCH FOR FORGIVENESS.

I guess forgiveness is only given to the criminals in the socialist democrat party. Its real a shame he did not fight the dems or that Arkansas antichrist and her husband half as hard as he is apologizing now.

We reap what we sow.
Good Bye, Your Trentness.

Oh well, goodbye to "FREEDOM OF SPEECH" ....at least if your white

Why is that ... you are still free to speak your mind

Yeah , but at what cost???

Well ... that goes for anything ... there is always a cost ..... sometimes it's just more than you thought.

U.S. Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., said Lott could make up for his statement by opening the door to legislation favored by the Black Caucus, pushing for a minimum wage increase, expanded affordable housing and a prescription drug benefit.

Steve1 ... you can put your card back in your wallet, we don't take those here.

This is true.
But there are two groups of people in the country who you can't even SLIP and say something about without getting you head taken off(like I probalbly will for saying this)
I had no idea of Strom Thurmans past. I took "he sould have been elected president" as simply that. Honoring a life long dedicated politician who has been in office longer than most of us have been alive!
I seriously doubt things would be any different today , there was too much pressure and momentum in the 60's and no one man like S.T. could have stopped it.

Here is what I did not know about the old man !

Storm was a Judge in the early 40s, when he resigned to join the army. He landed on D-Day - when he was over 40, himself - and even spent some time in the Pacific theater after that. Three years later he was running for president.

These self righteous blacks and whites too should focus their feigned anger elsewhere...perhaps to the Sudan where Blacks are still enslaving other Blacks for money....Or to Nigeria where Blacks are starving to death because of incompetent black rulers....or in the Congo where they are eating each other.

Cowards have always held our nation back.
