The more Republicans try to defend amnesty, the more idiotic they sound. The latest gaffe is by Trent Lott, joining President Bush (The Coyote in Chief), Lindsey "shuddap" Graham, John "Recall" Kyl and John "RINO" McCain as the GOP attempts to collectively destroy itself by abandoning it's base.
Sen Lott's statement isn't just insulting to his constituency, the majority of American voters and the millions of talk radio listeners, it's just flat out stupid. Consider the absurdity of the Minority Whip of the United States Senate thinking that he takes his marching orders from Rush Limbaugh. When did Michael Savage ever pass a law?
Comments by Republican senators on Thursday suggested that they were feeling the heat from conservative critics of the bill, who object to provisions offering legal status. The Republican whip, Trent Lott of Mississippi, who supports the bill, said: “Talk radio is running America. We have to deal with that problem.”
At some point, Mr. Lott said, Senate Republican leaders may try to rein in “younger guys who are huffing and puffing against the bill.”
One has to wonder if Sen Lott is just confused about which party he is in, talk radio has done more to the Republican message out than all the other media sources combined. America is run by politicians not talk radio, and we know how to deal with politicians.
