Trent Lott Counsels Cut and Run


From TPM

"...when asked if people should leave Washington, D.C., during the month of August, Lott replied that "I think it would be good to leave town in August, and it would probably be good to stay out until September the 12th." By contrast, a former Capitol Hill chief had the temerity to note that, according to U.S. intelligence analysis he'd been privvy to, "Americans tend to be much more oriented toward anniversaries and the jihadists seem to be less so. I've seen over the years where we concentrate on dates and the analysts say, 'Don’t get wrapped up in dates because our terrorist jihadist enemies bide their time.'"
Come back on September 12th for the barbecue and yuckfest as we celebrate outwitting the terrorists with the Mississippi Senator's geopolitical acumen.


"Curse you Trent Lott. How did you know it was impossible for us to attack after September 11th?"
