Trent Lott Of Nerve

Sen. Trent Lott (R-Miss) is really a bad seed in the ongoing "comprehensive immigration reform" bill-scam. He is, as noted in an earlier post, a career politician. He has been in Washington 35 years, and he is proud of it.
What, you may ask makes him such a bad seed?
Now, Sen. Lott does not like the fact that conservative talk radio is informing the voters on the immigration bill-scam. In the New York Times http://nytimes.com, he is quoted as saying there is a "problem" with talk radio. A problem? Sen. Lott seems to forget that when he became the latter-day chairman of the Strom Thurmond for president and it drew a huge outrage with the usual left-wing suspects, it was conservative talk radio, and only conservative talk radio, that came to his defense. Even though he went all over the left-wing media merry-go-round, he ended up losing as Senate Republican leader and we got, Sen Bill Frist from Tennessee. Sen. Frist is a genuine nice guy type that was way in over his head, but had Sen. Lott not made a foolish comment about how better off the United States would have been if Sen. Thurmond had won the presidency in 1948 as a racist Dixiecrat, a lot of things would have been different.
Now, conservative talk radio and I am sure us nagging bloggers, are a problem because they are not being, to use a Don Imus quote, butt-boys for Sen. Lott and just accepting this immigration bill-scam. Does this mean that Sen. Lott would support the "Fairness doctrine" when the Democrats certainly will bring it up to make it law? Has Sen. Lott realized that if it where not for conservative talk radio and especially Rush Limbaugh, Republicans would have never been able to harness the public's anger to vote the GOP to control both houses of congress in 1994. That was then. Now those of us who blog or listen to conservative talk radio are a problem.
No, Sen. Lott, YOU are the problem. Sen. Lott, you have been insulated from the real world for so long, you really think that the world is the District of Columbia and then everything else is "fly over" country to you. Again, 35 years is long enough for anyone to be in a job.
So, Sen. Lott, you can thank me personally for getting the people riled up and deluging your e-mail and switchboards.

You and I, the voters, need to give Sen. Lott hell and remind the good senator who he works for-us.

Lott's reaction is proving what we have all been saying for some time, this bill is not the will of the people. it is to bad a conservitive, who is supposed to be fighting for the "rights of man", is attempting to silence one. as vocal as the conservatives have been on this, this may be the unifier for the party since the present pres. candidates have failed to generate any party momentum!!!
