Lott’s All, Folks

So Trent Lott has gone bye-bye. I kinda suspected as much when Oliver Willis posted this:
\\SATAN: Lott Should Step Down
Deepest Darkest Bowels of the Soul, FL – Citing the increasingly harsh
legislative atmosphere, as well as a “public relations nightmare”,
Satan announced today that he believed that beleagured Senator Trent
Lott should step down from his position as Senate Majority Leader for
the Republican Party. “Look, I had an entire legislative agenda on a
pro-evil platform prepared for 2003. It’s not every day I get a
Republican congress and White House. I’m talking earth-pillaging,
suppression of the poor, and other nefarious deeds that you associate
with the Hell/Republican party coalition. Lott’s verbal gaffes are
endangering all that”.\\
