This is all loads of fun, I'm sure. The fact that Lott was at least sympathetic to segregation in his early days seems obvious based on what they've dug up. Of course, this would have been true for ANY major politician from the Southern states before the 1960s. Most of them got over it, like Byrd, Miller, Thurmond himself, and others, and barring a rather stretched interpretation of a rather vague statement made at a birthday party, I have seen zero evidence of any CURRENT segregationist tendencies on Lott's part. If anyone has anything segregationist he has done LATELY, in terms of legislation, specific statements, or other such, I'd like to hear it.

This is about cramping up any possible useful work that could be done by a Republican Congress, and everyone knows it.
