At a Lincoln Day Dinner in Tennessee over the weekend, Senator Lindsay Graham, doing his best impression of Trent Lott, made the following comment:
"We don't do Lincoln Day Dinners in South Carolina. It's nothing personal, but it takes awhile to get over things."
Do they EVER learn? Looks like Strom Thurmond's successor is following in Trent Lott's footsteps.
Meanwhile in a followup, Raw Story notes that Rep. Jim Gibbons (R-NV), who suggested that anti-war activists should go to Iraq to act as “human shields” (and later admitted to ripping off the speech), NOW appears to have taken his speech link off his web site. (At last check the individual speeches were still there IF you had the direct URL to each file).
AND "Some might find it odd that the Bush administration feels that our best representative to the United Nations would be someone who has joked (harmlessly joked!) that the U.N. could lose ten stories and 'it wouldn't make a bit of difference...'"
