I mean, really. HOW the hell is Trent
Lott our Senator?
I was just thinking about politics, with
Obama announcing his candidacy and all. And I was looking at who's
running our state.
Let's learn a little bit about Trent
Lott.
December 5, 2002, Trent Lott attends the birthday of
Strom Thurmon. Thurmond was a presidential candidate of a party
called the Dixiecrats which strongly supported racial
segregation.
You know what our dear senator says at this
event?
"When Strom Thurmond ran for president, we voted
for him. We’re proud of it. And if the rest of the country had
followed our lead, we wouldn’t have had all these problems over the
years, either"
It gets better.
1. Voted
against the continuation of the Civil Rights Act (Making
discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national
origin.
2. Opposed Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday
3. Member of
Council of Conservative Citizens (Basically a white supremacist
group)
4. The Star Wars character Lott Dod was named after him
