Look at his face... you can see for yourself,
this attempt to eliminate Strom Thurmond was nearly a success!!

When can we expect attempted murder charges and an inquiry? If they didn't work for Lott I'd actually have to wonder.

Notice that it says, "was being recognized by Lott and Majority Leader Tom Daschle"..

I'm sure Daschle made the suggestion to send over Meg and Rainey.

Either the senator has suffered a debilitating stroke or he's having a really good time.

Would it be safe to assume then that daschle is hiding under the chair being the elfin weasel that he is? Thankfully he doesn't appear in any of the pictures.

I'll just assume you didn't mean the kind of relief spelled L-E-W-I-N-S-K-Y. ;)

Good to see you back here.

At the end of Brit Hume's program last evening, in his little 30-sec clip, he showed Strom at the podium saying (not verbatim) "I love all you men, and your wives, too". He is a priceless old gent, and I'm sorry he isn't 20 yrs younger.

Forty eight years, what a disgrace. The state of SC is saying they have no one else to replace the man. Same as Kennedy 40 years, time for term limits.

Back in 1996, when i interned in DC, there was an unwritten rule that Strom was not allowed in an elevator alone with a woman.

He's an old man, he should be happy. So what if he pulls a Nelson Rockefeller?
