Republican Senate Whip Lott To Republican Senators And Republican Base: Drop Dead
www.HughHewitt.com ^ | 6/7/07 | Hugh Hewitt

From the WaPo, word of the continuing GOP meltdown:

Senate Minority Whip Trent Lott (R-Miss.) said he has told the most virulent Republican opponents that he will not tolerate a raft of amendment votes designed simply to filibuster the measure, and he castigated his own party's senators for their vote switches.

"We're going to do this damned thing, and if we don't, I think we should dissolve the Congress and just go home," Lott fumed.

The sooner the Republican Senate caucus can find 41 votes to declare the bill beyond repair, the better of the GOP will be. The presidential ambitions of John McCain are smoldering as a result of the fire he started, and now the GOP's 49 seats look to take another major hit in the fall of '08.

If they don’t manage to field some conservative candidates, you’re probably right, or optimistic.

So, the Vacant Lott blows fart gas again!

Someone should hold a lit match to his mouth when he’s talking and we could watch his head turn into a torch.

It would make great TV!

Better yet, send the bastards back to Mexico, since that seems to be where their supporters are coming from.

How come none of these dweebs offer up an ammendment to separate the security part out of the bill and pass it first? Then go back and figure out how your going to handle the status of 12 mil plus!

High pay for the best and brightest my arse!

A Freudian slip, if there ever was one! It is indeed a "damned thing," to betray your heritage, by turning over the birthright passed down to us from the Founding Fathers, to untold millions of third world types, who have never embraced the complex of moral and philosophic precepts upon which the Founding Fathers risked everything, after pledging to one another, and calling the Creator to witness that pledge of their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor.

So, Go !

Neither life, liberty nor property is safe while Congress is in session, to paraphrase Mark Twain.

“He won’t tolerate”? Somebody needs to explain to him that he was elected Senator, not SS Commanding General. I sure hope that boy knows how to garden, because in just a little while, that will be all he has to do. Garden. And I hope he gets mosquitos under his wig while he is at it.

"What’s the matter with Lott?"

Good question,GOPJ. For starters, Trent Lott's manner is overly effeminate, and my guess is that the Corrupt Party/Cinton/DemRat crowd has something on him along those lines, maybe among those 900 or so FBI files The Clinton Organization stole. I would guess that when it matters, they can turn him any way they want him. It's a similar concern I would have regarding any of these traitorous, illegal alien amnesty-supporting, pseudo-Republican punks.

What was the name of that character that was discovered to have stolen those FBI files (around 1997 was it?)?

This is a great example of why I supported removing the worlds only living spine donor from the Senate Majority Leader role a few years back.

Why is it the Republicans can only be vicious with their own?

And I’d love to hear from anyone that whined incessantly about Lott being removed, btw.

You know who you are....this is what you wanted to fight about with those of us that detested this man’s unbelievable cowardly acts during Impeachment?

I have an idea for Senator Lott. Why don’t YOU resign and just go home?

Well I'll be damned. He got half a sentence correct and I whole heartedly agree with it. Lets call Trent and let him know that "...dissolve the Congress and just go home" is something we can all support!

Hey Trent, I've got a better idea. Instead of going home, why don't you head for the border and move to Mexico. I'm sure they'll treat you with dignity, courtesy, and respect, and will eventually give you full legal citizenship even if you happen to commit a few crimes while you're there. </sarcasm>

You couldn't bring Mexico here, so why don't YOU go THERE!

You tool.
