I Trent Lott hereby declare that am indeed a racist and that the entire republican party is incorrigibly racist, while the democratic party is as pure as the driven snow. And I hereby declare my support for every democrat in the next election, and until that election I will work to enact every bit of the democrats legislative agenda.
Seems to me it is now owned by either Viacom or AOL Time Warner.
Old Trent needs to meet with Shug Knight, Dre, Eminem and Snoop Dog- even tour with them.
Perhaps Trent could star in a black barber shop movie.
Hey, its the hubris, stupid.
what he said about the "oh, so sensitive" DIMocRATS like kennedy,sharpton,jackson,mckinney,cummings, et.al. was NOT what the management of WMAL wanted him to say! i was PROUD of him, for whatever that is worth.

If Strom was elected we would have never had Martin Luther King? We would have never had Rosa Parks? We would have never had the movement to give Blacks Civil Rights? How rediculous an argument can you have? The Rats have one thing that they do well and that name calling and the politics of personal destruction. Because a Republican says something that can in any way be construed as racist, he is a racist, sexist, homophobe which of course a Capitol offense.
Who should really be guilty of racism is NAALCP and NOW for the lynching of The Honorable Clarence Thomas for the crime of being Colored Conservative. If he were a white man does anyone think he would have gone through that lynching. No because he was a Blackman who made the Capitol offense of being a Republican. The NAACP has used trumped up charges of making two unsubstantiated statements about porn and pubic hair and has had his public life destroyed over and over and over and over.... The NAALCP claims that he is a racist and has left his affirmative action plantation. If this isn’t racism when Trent Lott is, please explain what racism is other than a political weapon?
Of course we have the Klansman Senator using the term White Blackman which in Jim Crow era was the ultimate putdown. Now the term is White Trash or what he really says is Blacks are trash....nice non-racist statement. Did not hear a peep from the NAALCP or the other racist blacks??
Now is the time to expose the NAACP and Natinonl Old Women for the real political action committees that they are. Their agenda is to take their marching orders from the DNC and use PradABC as their amplifiers. Ask some hard questions about why they will still protest any speeches that Justice Thomas wants to give. How valuable is a decenting voice in the Black community, yet it is censored the same as a Black at a KKK parade? There is only one real reason that they want to censor Justice Thomas and that is because he is the wrong type of Black. How more racist can you get. Kind of makes Lott look black???
Take a look at the name NAAColored People. Colored is a name right out of Jim Crow. Does the NAACP want to go back to Jim Crow and segregating the races?? Are they really a extremust racist organization?? What is worse The Segregation Party or the NAACP? Now like in 1948 instead of blacks only drinking fountains we have colored only or approved speech. When has the NAACP recognized conservative blacks for their accomplishments? By every appearance there is no difference to the division of the Segregation Party and the NAACPs, Jesse Jacksons and the rest of the race baiters. What was worse, Dennis Byrd’s horrific crime or the horrific political ad that was used to divide the races?? One was done by an escaped criminal who met justice and the other by the NAACP that didn’t.
No matter what happens to Trent it is time to expose these racists on both sides of the color spectrum. It will take courage and finesse, but this would be a better country without racists on either side.Not all words that come out of white mouths are black putdowns! I don’t remember who said it and it doesn’t matter, but we need a country that sees people for the content of their character rather than the color of their skin.
Pray for W and the Truth
He's already prepping.
Oh I disagree! The more times a Republican can talk directly to black people without the filter of the media, black or white, it is a good thing.
I like the idea of him talking about how he changed with the South. So many people, not hating black people, but just accepting the situation as it was because they had never known anything else, changed greatly in the 60s. These people became much more tolerant of blacks than folks in other parts of the country; witness the riots in South Boston when bussing first arrived there! One reason was that many white people had known and loved some black people as they were coming up, so acceptance was easy. Those black people who witnessed these changes will understand, and if they have open hearts will accept his words.
Of course there were some low class whites who needed someone on whom they could look down who continued the overt, ugly racism. The majority of whites did NOT, and I count Trent, Strom Thurmond, Jesse Helms and other well known Southern Republicans in that number. I read the other day that Strom Thurmond was the FIRST Senator to hire a black person in his Congressional offices. Where were those oh so diverse Democrats then?
I had read years ago that James Meredith, the man who had to have the help of the Mississippi National Guard to attend Ole Miss, later worked as a staffer on Capitol Hill. Was he in the office of one of those well known Democrats who always puts down the Republicans as racist hatemongerers? Nope!
He worked in JESSE HELM'S office!!!
