Trent's comeback put on permanent hold. Also: A new Crusade. War ain't beanbag -- Lt. Pantano in light of WWII. Plus: Priceless Klein.

p>As memory serves, Trent Lott is the knucklehead who agreed to
the set up the "power sharing" arrangement with the recently
departed Tom Daschle, when the Senate was 50/50 (post-Jeffords
defection). That worked well. So now this modern-day Republican
Clauswitz would like to strike a strategic deal with the Democrats
in order to get his power back. Several years ago upon seeing a
spider, my daughter, then four, said to me: "Daddy, a bug, crush
it." My sentiments exactly.

Leave it to Sen. Lott to blame the wrong people for his downfall
after the Thurmond incident. He then compounds his error by siding
with those same Democrats to assure that the unconstitutional
filibuster of judicial nominees will continue against these fine
people, all because of his bruised ego. Does Lott not remember it
was the Democrats who recently destroyed his fellow Mississippian's
judicial career? McCain, Hagel, Lott et al., are fine examples of
the self-absorbed "me first" political calculus that sickens those
of us who worked hard for the senate majority. What a waste of our
time and hard earned money. Frist sends us weekly pleas for money;
my written response back is "no judges, no money." Hey guys, keep
doing the Democrats bidding and minority status might just be an
election away, and while we're on the subject, McCain and Hagel can
forget about '08 as well.
