Not to start an argument here. The issue between Lott and Byrd is that they both have racist backgrounds. However, Byrd has publicly distanced himself from his roots(the white nigger comment was a poor, unwise attempt to say there are good whites and bad white as there are good blacks and bad blacks).

Lott, in his dumbass move last week, gave rise to the inference that he embraced the dixiecrat platform yet today.

Now, the burden of persuasion has shifted to Lott to prove otherwise.

Just an observation.

Lott's statement played the white race card, an act as ugly as liberals playing the black race card. It was not "dumbass" it was deliberate. And yes, there is a double standard, but that doesn't release us from the moral obligation to do what's right.

Lott's endless lame apologies are Clinton lite. He's looking for something that "works", not something that's true. It's time for Lott to go.

Lott's racist comment was not "dumbass" it was deliberate. This was not the first time it was said, and my guess is it wasn't the second time it was said either. It had the ring of Country Club stump speech filler.

A double standard doesn't release us from moral obligation to do what's right. We're not democrats endlessly trolling for plausible excuses.

And ... a good observation it is too! Although it may not be very popular.
