man, women, or minority

[Betsy]

And hence was said by Trent Lott (R-MS) in regards to the person who may replace Harriet Miers as the nominee:

"I want the President to look around the country and find the best man, woman or minority he can find."

Does it mean that he thinks an intersex person would be the best candidate?

Peter? Want me to write a letter on your behalf?

No, what he thinks is that minorities are not men or women because of the color of their skin.

Hi Betsy,

Thanks for the classic Trent Lott (R-MS) quote. There is often not much distance between his foot and his mouth. I wonder if he is one of those people who believes that Adam and Eve rode around on dinosaurs?

Meresa,

It is fixed for now. The reason it stopped working is I was attempting to limit signature links to one which I think is fair.
