Trent Lott wants Bush to find "the best man, woman, or minority" he can

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

Man, Woman OR minority?

:wtf:



On TDS, Stewart found Trent Lott saying the kind of idiotic statements that got him in trouble in the past.

Video-WMP

Lott: I want the President to look across the country and find the best man, woman, or minority that he can find.

The General writes a fine letter to Mr. Lott....

1. It shows that Lott has not changed, whatever he wants to say.

2. I'm willing to cut him a little slack.

Look, the guy's gun shy after the whole Strom debacle, so now he's reflexively pimping minorities in every sentence. Doesn't mean I like him, but there's too much else out there to be angry about to let this take up any of my sadly-too-scarce mental space.

3. "Minorities" to a republican are a different species. Media allows this

remark to go without even challenging it. Only the Daily Show has guts and sensitivity to cover it.

4. I needed a laugh - Great line!
