Lott's Apology
CNN.com - Sen. Trent Lott discusses comments on BET - Dec. 17, 2002
I heard this on the radio this morning, and I'm realizing that Lott's working his ass off apologizing, and in a pretty serious way, too.
As I was listening, I was thinking that this is either one of two things. Either he was really that naïve and unaware of what his position meant, or (as the cynical side of me would say) he's working his butt off to get himself out of the hole he's in.
I'm tending to go with the cynical side of me. Maybe I just distrust politicians. I can't say.
