Trent Lott : “Talk radio is running America."

[TheFarseer]

He says this in reference to the immigration bill.

“I’m sure senators on both sides of the aisle are being pounded by these talk-radio people who don’t even know what’s in the bill.” “Talk radio is running America. We have to deal with that problem.”

4. Unfortunately mr. lott, most senators don't know what the fuck is in the bill either.

[Donnachaidh]

5. Mr. Lott has a problem when the message isn't controlled by HIMSELF?

Yet another whiny crybaby Republican who wants *respect* by shutting down the opposition's voice.

10. Mr. Lott, running America is a tough job, too bad you gave it up

Where have you been the last 6 years of misrule, surely even in your fortress deep inside the beltway, you know what is going on
in the Gulf Coast. They are now begging for foreign aid. You should be mighty proud of what the GOP has done to this country.
The last time the Dems were in power in the White House, the country had a budget surplus, but you and George took care of that.
The last time the Dems were in power in the White House, we had peace and prosperity, but you and George took care of that.

11. Gee Trent..you didn;t mind when talk radio was slamming Clinton ..day in and day out

but now that they are not toeing the line on all the bogus legislation, you're not "loving it" anymore :)

[Horse with no Name]

12. I guess that they are in a tie with Republicans

:shrug:

[DeSwiss]

13. They weren't so worried about it....

...when talk-radio was running the country in the direction that they wanted it to go. Now its not. Suck it!
