If what Lott said is so despicable and unforgivable, Karl ought to be calling for Lott to resign from the Senate completely.

You don't think the standards ought to be higher for national party leadership than for just a garden variety Senator?

Of course the standards should be higher. But should the standards be established by race-baiters? Should those who have questionable history in race issues be the determiners of what's right or not?

I don't think so.

I agree with you-

He Must step down as Leader- They may be satisfied with Trent Lott.

"But the United States Senate deserves better leadership than Trent Lott.

The American people deserve a Republican leader that reflects their highest values." "Character Matters"

Uhhh... no.

You have to make up your mind here: either Lott is a vile racist, or he is not.

Evidently you just want to smear him enough with the "RACIST!!! RACIST!!! RACIST!!!" brush to make somebody else majority leader, but not enough to give up the Senate seat.

For someone with such high moral standards, they sure are flexible.
