So, why is Lott addressing a hostile BET audience tonight? I look forward to seeing a follow-up opinion poll after BET grills Lott at 8pm tonight.

Why don't they ALSO demand that Jesse's son Yusef Jackson resign from his U.Va. Law graduate status, dating back to 1994? Check out the following scandal that Linda Chavez has impressively made available to us:

http://www.ceousa.org/html/update/update.html

"A detailed, 50-page study released by the Center for Equal Opportunity
concludes that racial discrimination is widespread in Virginia law school
admissions. The report focuses on the three Virginia public law schools --
the University of Virginia, William & Mary, and George Mason University --
and reveals odds favoring black applicants as high as 731 to 1. To put it in
other terms: A student with an LSAT score of 160 and an undergraduate GPA of
3.25 had a 95 percent chance of admission into U.Va. if he or she was black,
but only a 3 percent chance of admission if white, Hispanic or Asian."

I want to see lot go out there with that sing-songy yet emotionless voice of his. I'm sure they'll be real impressed.

Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott is under fire for making racist comments during Sen. Strom Thurmond's birthday party.

That’s a lie.

No doubt the BET is a center of Republican strength. Therefore, we should spare no effort in placating this critical block of voters. (/sarcasm)

Black Entertainment Television is by its own name a segregated organization. And they are going to berate Lott for his segregationist views? Sheesh.

Could it be that BET watchers are bias?

Lott's going to get shredded the next 2 days. He's going to offer to give away the farm to atone for this as well.

I do believe the fact that most conservatives agree that Lott choked on the big one will be tremendously beneficial in the long run for conservatives. The hypocrisy of the RATS is so fast and furious on this that they have already gone too far and will lose this issue once and for all politically. I personally won't cease to let up on the hypoCRATS.

Sidenote: it's a good thing he didn't go on WET instead of BET.

>>So, why is Lott addressing a hostile BET audience tonight? <<

To explain that he has many black friends and that he's the pore ol' son of a sharecropper. What's not to love?

He will probably elaborate on all his experience picking cotton and how he loves fried chicken, too.

The guy is a hamhanded panderer, and this will blow up in his face, I betcha.

Should Trent Lott Resign? BET.com Users Say Yes

In other news, it's just been learned that the Pope is Catholic.

Did you expect a different outcome!? C'mon...I'm sure the questions tonight will be akin to "When did you stop beating your mother?"

I fully expect Lott to insert his loafers even deeper into his throat tonight. He'll be history by mid to late week.

Black conservative ping

If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)

Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.

This is ridiculous. I cannot believe this whole thing has gone on this long. I'm not a big fan of his, but Lott DID NOT make a racist remark.

Think about it - if the Republicans throw him overboard, how many black votes will they gain?...

ZERO!

If Lott goes, it will only prove that the Republican party is a bunch of spineless wimps, and every PC special interest will pile on from that day forward.

Before you get too wound up over this poll, consider the source.

I would bet that the BET people would say that ALL Republicans should resign.
