Please tell me what the views of Al Gore's father has to do with Trent Lott's feet slamming into his mouth so hard they are coming out his anus? Exactly how does the racial views of the late Senator William Fulbright have to do with the egg smeared all over the face of the almost-Senate Majority leader? Please tell me ... did the Democrats employ mind-control microwave technology to make Lott show his true color?
You really, really need to be careful dredging up the 1960s racial views of the Southern Democratics in your attempt to defend the Republicans. Remember that the honoree that Lott was singing the praises of LEFT THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY IN PART BECAUSE OF ITS POLICIES AND PLATFORM ON RACE. The success of the Mitchell Plan to attract southerns to the Republican party has a whole lot to do with the successes they have enoyed over the past 30 years ... and they brought with them the views of the individuals you are referencing.
As far as Bush's Daddy ... methinks that's a bit more recent than Fulbright or Senator Gore the 1st. Lame ... positively lame.

Lott was 7 years old when Thurmond ran for President. Granted, that he was at one time (like most Dems) involved in some racist activities; but he changed parties and pholisophies long ago. His remarks were far less offensive that Sen. Byrd's remarks about 'white n-words'. In fact, the Black Communists (Jackson, Sharpton, Mfume, Watters, et al) are simply parsing words to create a furor which they hope will drive Lott out of the Senate, thereby changing the balance of power without an election. Show me the words in what he said that say he supports segregation (a concept which seems to be ok as long as it is people like Jackson espousing it).
Bush's dad had nothing to do with it. He is constantly being brought up, though, by the Left. I just think that it is time to hold the Dems' feet to the same fire. Remember, if not for the Republicans, there would have been no CRA '64...
