Former Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott, R-Miss., is shaking a few trees with his new kiss and tell book, "Herding Cats, A Lifetime in Politics". Lott wrote that Sen. Bill Frist, his successor as majority leader, was one of the "main manipulators" in the events that resulted in his own loss of power. Lott lost his post in 2002 after making racially tinged remarks at a 100th birthday party for one-time segregationist Sen. Strom Thurmond.
"Frist's actions amounted to a "personal betrayal," Lott wrote. "I had taken him under my wing. ... He was my protege. ... We'd been friends off and on the floor, and that's pretty rare in a governmental body loaded with lone wolves and enormous egos."
Lott also expressed how President George W. Bush stabbed him in the back.
President Bush also played a role in his downfall, Lott wrote, not so much with what he said, but by saying it in a tone that was"devastating ... booming and nasty."
I'm thrilled that Lott is attacking these folks, but give me a break. He should take personal responsibility for his own actions. Frist and Bush did not go to Strom'sbirthday party and wish the Dixicrat would have won. No, this was Lott's very own political suicide. All Frist and Bush did was eventually acknowlede that Lott had fallen on his own sword. It is time Lott slinks back to Mississippi in shame and disgrace. He is a bigot who has no place in a respectable Senate. He can try to "whitewash" his actions, but we all know who he truly is. Calling Frist a snake and Bush a worm, will not change the fact that he is a racist toad.

Lott hates black people. He is a redneck bigot. Sned his cracker ass back to Mississippi.
So Lott is going to mine the left for bucks. We're already suckers sucking up to his hype. Brother!

But if the repugs had circled the wagon as they have with Delay and Rove, then Lott would still be in power. He's not out of power because he's a racist (else so many more would be!). He's out of power because he was stabbed in the back. I mean, good riddance an all, but I don't think he's necesasrily wrong about Bush & Frist.

Besides, what's really important here is that my PAC is in the news! :)
GoodWorks-PAC is supporting a Democratic Congressional candidate, Joe Otterbein, who is announcing his candidacy this coming Tuesday. He is calling for more Democrats to join the race and compete against him, and he is going to work with his competitors on a series of public service events.
About time this piece of scum got his comeuppance, though Frist and Bush should get theirs too, along with the hate-pack of Rove, DeLay and Santorum et al.
