Lott "I don't have to work with them (GOP) anymore, they threw me overboard!" (202) 224-6253

Tony Snow show

No point whatsoever, as you so eloquently pointed out..(G)

[demkicker]

I didn't find Lott's comments about Strom Thurmond offensive, but his Democrat buddies sure turned on him and smeared him to high heavens....never mind that Robert Byrd had more segregation baggage than Thurmond.

I'm pretty sure all FReepers would agree.

Lott deserved to be removed before he made the infamous comments, because he couldn't remember he was a Republican! He let Tom Daschle outmaneuver him on major issues. There were some who thought he was helping Democrats because his brother-in-law was active in the Mississippi Democrat Party.

The dems really screwed up when they blew his comments out of perportion. They already had Trent in their back pocket and could have continued having their way with him if they'd have not kept up their feeding frenzy. Trent Lott can point the blame at the President, Allen and others all he wants, but it was because of his ineffectiveness as leader and democrat butt kisser that caused the people in his own party to prefer different leadership.

The truth hurts, Trent, but you only have yourself to blame and the bitterness and blame game you're playing will only destroy YOU. Get over it already and try to act like a legitimate Republican for your remaining time in office, please!

But the real problem with Lott was that he was always making deals with the dems, proving what a good guy he was, such a go along, get along kind of fellow.

I think the word you're looking for is collaborator.

[Bahbah]

collaborator

LOL. That would be it in a nutshell.

[johnb838]

He's got nuthin' to payback with, except floating plans that will get the msm all a'twitter until the real gop swats them down like the flies that they are.

OTOH, it got FR all a'twitter yesterday.

[WVNan]

Time to deluge ole Trent with some reality messages. We CAN support whoever runs against him in 06 with $$$$$ and send him home.

[HostileTerritory]

Call Lott now and tell him we WILL throw him overboard in the next election.

Unless you know something about the Mississippi GOP that I don't know, this will be rightly perceived as a hollow threat.

[johnb838]

There were a lott of people screaming for his hide on here long before the birthday party. When the birthday party remarks happened, they just stepped back and let him hang himself.

That's ok, that's politics. But it did further exacerbate the situation in which we find ourselves where the rats and msm believe if they can just screech loud enough, people like "embattled majority leader Tom Delay" or "combative Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld" will eventually cave in and quit and get out of the way like Lott, and Newt, and Linda Chavez, and a number of other high-profile repubs.

[boomop1]

Lott is the reason we are going through this BS he made nice to the enemy and wants to make nice with the enemy again.

[OKIEDOC]

The debate is really two sided.

Lott was a less than effective Senate Majority Leader.

I also believe that he was abandoned to the Rat wolves.

As for his offensive remarks. They pale compared to Ted Kennedy, Nancy Pelosie, Joe Biden, Tom Harkin, Congressional Black Caucus and Harry Reed.

[cvq3842]

Sad, but true.

[conservativecorner]

AMEN BUMP!!

[conservativecorner]

You can be "Daschled" as easily as anyone Trent. How about shutting your stupid pie-hole!

[WKB]

Mississippi ping

[Southern Federalist]

What a pathetic man. A dumb, vain, plastic person bursting with self-admiration and self-pity. And alas, apparently a very typical contemporary United States Senator.

[WKB]

Call Lott now and tell him we WILL throw him overboard in the next election.



You voting absentee?

[WKB]

.methinks that Lott may well face a primary challenge..



Never happen

[Tall_Texan]

Foster Brooks is dead...

...but STILL voting Democrat.

[Theodore R.]

Won't happen: people in MS idolize Trent Lott, for better or worse!
