Tribal Council

Up for your consideration is long-standing Senator Trent Lott, overdue for undeserved retirement. Winning reelection, he has now determined that it is finally time to leave. Money talks and it is apparently shouting to him in his future role as a lobbyist. He could have left earlier before the sham election and done his long-suffering constituents a favor but that was not in the plans. Apparently he did not want his successor determined by the people of his state in an election. Too bad.

Senator Lott is hereby ejected from the island of Left Blogistan. The tribe has spoken.
