Matthews: I think (Vice President) Cheney had his thumb on the scale, do you agree? That they were pushing this war so hard, they were working to look at any evidence that backed the war and ignore any evidence that didn’t back the war.

Lott: They were pushing the evidence that justified going to the war, a lot of us, Republicans and Democrats, were concerned about what we were told, and we bought the packet.

1. Why does my senator have to lie on national TV?
trent you wanted war just like the rest of you fake patriot conservative mother fuckers. Now, internal polling data is telling all you weasels how fucking wrong you were and how damn pissed the american people are. Your solution? Distance yourself from your president. bush and cheney weren't pushing evidence, they were lying. Its what conservatives do when they think they are in power.

3. This could be the opening salvo
of an impeachment threat.
From the Republicans.

Why? Because the Dems won't, and the Repugs know that it is what the people overwhelmingly want!

Trent Lott could be the saviour of the Republican party.
