But Byrd used the N word just a couple of years ago. By using the same level of thinking the democrats are using against Lott, we can say that Byrd is a racist.

So not allowing a person of a different race to drink from the same water fountain as you is a "crime against humanity"? From this statement alone, I think we should never let the French run anything. It may be a crime, but not against humanity. KaЯl wrote: You mean if they start lynching people again ? Exactly.

KaЯl wrote: And he's still in place ? Absolutely! We've even had communists, drunk drivers, queers, jews, women, con men, the whole gamut in our government. At various times all of these groups and others have been viewed as pariahs - we do not block the disparate views of individuals, but cherish them for the unique contributions they all make. The liberal media has tried to quash the right if individual expression of opinion, and on many fronts it has largely succeeded, but this nation is still a place of diversity, and tolerance is supposed to be a fundamental part of who we are. To depose a politician for being a past member of the KKK, or for once opposing a cultural change that he has since accepted as the will of the majority would be the ultimate un-American act! Diversity of opinion has led to duels and fist fights in the hallowed halls of Congress, and in my opinion, we were the stronger for it. This too civilized, politically correct land is doomed if a change in direction isn't forthcoming soon. I'd even vote for a VBer, just for the change!

You need to get out from under that rock from time to time Chris. ;) The Democrats from Ted Kennedy to Kwaese Mfume (that has to be misspelled) have lambasted Lott for their own political benefit. Even Jesse Jackson stepped into it.

now hold on a second. you're claiming that the republicans are suddenly the champions of diversity, tolerance and expression? the homophobic, xenophobic, church-and-state-mingling, morality-dictating republicans are now the people ensuring a diverse and tolerant USA? WTF? -c

this article[^] is about Trent Lott. I'm not a specialist of US internal politics, but from the articles I've read I believe this guy is one of these f*cking "hidden" racists, who is now ready to say anything to save his job. (This rant is NOT about the GOP, I don't know if Lott is representative of the Republican mentality)

No wonder you feel the need to express an adverse opinion about politics in this country. You're from France. That fact alone explains a lot, and we all know that being from France makes you an expert on everything in the United States. ------- signature starts "...the staggering layers of obscenity in your statement make it a work of art on so many levels." - Jason Jystad, 10/26/2001 Please review the Legal Disclaimer in my bio. ------- signature ends

I have no love for Lott, Republicans, Democrats, Thurmond, or anyone else involved in this. But 'fucking "hidden" racists'? That's a bit disturbing, Karl. Ever hear of a guy named Joseph McCarthy?

KaЯl wrote: isn't Segregationism by definition racism? If you're segratating based on race, yes. Which is what you meant, so, yes. What's hidden here though? AFAIK, Lott said "we'd be better off as a country if Thurmond had been elected in '48", not "Damn blacks and minorities! We'd be better off as a country if Thurmond had successfully put them in their place back in '48". KaЯl wrote: The one of the witch hunts ? His anticommunism leaded him not so far from fascism. He was eventually condamned by the US Senate, wasn't he ? Heh, he was a nasty little man who used intimidation and false allegations to ruin his opponents. Communism was one of the issues (and the most successful) that he pounced on to use towards this end. My point was, either we have had plenty of proof of Lott's racism prior to this comment (in which case we've been negligent in making him majority leader), or we have none appart from this comment (in which case it is a pathetic attempt to drive him out for other reasons, using this as a lame excuse, playing on people's fears of, and aversion to, racism).
