dark days... dark days indeed

I don't even have anything funny to say.

*sigh*

I would like to formally disown Trent Lott on behalf of mother America. Jesus H Christ.

I....um...ah....wow. That surpasses anything moronic said in the past 6 years, by anyone, including the President. (And that's a big list to top)

I don't even know what to say.

It's people like this douche-bag, that has the world hating Americans. People like him.

In this case the H stands for Holy Fucking Shit

The more things change the more they stay the same.

'Democrats and some conservatives have questioned Lott's comments at last week's 100th birthday party for retiring Sen. Strom Thurmond, when he said the country "wouldn't have had all these problems" had Thurmond succeeded in his 1948 run for the presidency -- which included a segregationist platform.'

I'm sure we'll be hearing this later in the day from the good Senator's office.

'Look, you put your foot in your mouth, you're getting carried away at a ceremony honoring a guy like this, you go too far," Lott said in an interview aired Wednesday night on CNN's "Larry King Live." "Those words were insensitive, and I shouldn't have said them," Lott said during the telephone interview. "I regret it and I apologize for it."


I'm sure he'll apologize again, and again, and again

What a scrub.

I'd like to think he meant "they kill over differences of ideology, but since ideology is not a visible trait, how can they tell the difference between Sunni and Shi'ia before killing someone?"

But in my heart I know he meant "damn A-rabs all look alike." Yay, Mr. Lott.

Yes. Give Trent Lott the benefit of the doubt, that's the American fucking way!

That was sarcasm.

As for the Strom Thurman thing? I thought it was very nice of Trent Lott to wish Thurman would have won, since the old man ran as a DEMOCRAT!!!

Yeah! That is non-partisan action, motherfucker!

Yeah!

I'm starting to worry about my mental state, I actually laughted out loud (I hate using LOL) when I read the bit about telling them apart. I think I've blown my "outrage fuse"

I laughed too because I know he doesn't realize what he said was so inappropriate. He'll go back to his office and one of his handlers will explain the gaff to him and he'll have a Homer Simpson moment... D'OH

Yeah, I heard that on Free Speech Radio News yesterday. Pretty unbelievable. Made my jaw drop, which is pretty hard to do.

Well, at least he somehow avoided using the term Sandn-..

is all I can say.
just
It's a walking talking surrealist nightmare from which you can not wake.

That is in fact a lie. Strom did NOT run as a Democrat. He ran as the candidate of the DIXIECRAT Party because he was opposed to the Civil Rights Act which was pushed through by the liberal wing of the Democratic Party. Strom went from being a conservative democrat to being a dixiecrat to being a conservative republican following the republicans' Southern Strategy of appealing to southerners that were unhappy with civil rights. Get it right next time.
