Idle thoughts of a relatively libertarian Republican in Cambridge, MA, and whomever he invites. Mostly political.

Monday, December 09, 2002 :::
Much is being made, understandably, about some unfortunate comments made by Trent Lott for Strom Thurmond's birthday party. (Link from Instapundit, one of many he has on the subject.)
I want to say this about my state: When Strom Thurmond ran for president, we voted for him. We're proud of it. And if the rest of the country had followed our lead, we wouldn't have had all these problems over all these years, either.
My comment on Strom's birthday was that he came around on treating blacks as people -- at about the same time he became a Republican.
