Thread Name: BS: 'Lott, Reagan & GOP Racism'
Subject: RE: BS: 'Lott, Reagan & GOP Racism'
Sean Hannity interviewed Jesse Jackson last week concerning the Trent Lott mess. Hannity pressed Jackson to say whether or not he (Jackson) would accept Trent Lott's apology. Jesse Jackson said that he would accept Lott's apology if it was sincere. Jackson went on to say that the apology would be sincere if future actions by Lott and the Republicans showed sincerity; that is, if Lott and the Republicans would pass legislation strengthening Affirmative Action, increasing funding for minority issues, pursuing reparations, and increasing funding for a few other of Jackson's favorite issues. I for one certainly hope Lott is sincere, don't you? After all, what better way to spend our way out of the recession than to follow a proven leader like Jackson?
