Today's GOP: Out: "Evangelicalism." In: "Segregationism!"

Out--Evangelicalism. In--Segregationism!
Trent Lott Is Back -- And That's Great News for the Democrats
by Dave "Doctor" Gonzo

Nov. 15, 2006 -- New York (apj.us) -- How can you not love the incoming Senate GOP minority?

In an act of sheer desperation disguised as a "rapid and decisive move," the 49 sore loser Republicans -- still recovering from the shocking and entertaining national application of rigorous red-ass by blue America -- have voted to rehabilitate America's favorite segregationist advocate, Senator Trent Lott (White-MS), as their "whip," the number two man in the Senate GOP leadership.

Mind you, the decision has a lot (no pun intended) to do with public relations: the incoming Minority Leader (and doesn't that have a sweet ring to it), Sen. Mitch McConnell (Big Tobacco-KY), looks like a giant mutant Cabbage Patch Doll and sure as hell comes across like one on the tee-vee, and Lott's only challenger, Sen. Lamar Alexander (Plaid-TN), ran the most charisma-challenged Presidential bid in a generation, making even the bizarre, violet-eyed Christianist Gary Bauer look more presidential! Compared to those two, Lott comes across as telegenic, and will no doubt be the Senate regressives' Sunday morning point man -- starting, without doubt, this coming Sunday.
