"I mean, will we ever forget the purple fingers…?"Yet another Republican totem: purple fingers. Who cares if one or two elections down the road in Iraq half of those purple fingers are gloved and hidden under burkas? Bush and Lott don't
Also according to Lott, we should stay in Iraq until the very end but not for perpetuity, a statement that does for increasingly defensive pro-war politicians and pundits what string theory does for the rest of the universe.
DAVID GREGORY: In your words, "At some point, Lott said, the United States will have to tell the Iraqi people, `we disposed of Saddam Hussein. We've given you a chance to be free and democratic and worship as you see fit. ... Bring all the difference [sic] religions and sects in your country together and rule and govern yourselves, or you can go on killing each other like you have (in the Middle East) for 2,000 years, but you've got to make the choice.'"Oh, and apparently Lott has published a book about cats. Strange, I always pictured him as a coonhound fancier.
Does that sound like a senator who believes that we have to stick with this till the very end?
SEN. LOTT: I believe it does, but I don't think we're there in perpetuity.
