Washington Times piece was pure puffery.


It was a piece on the Defense Department, and Lott is a big player in the DOD. The Dems play pork as much or more as Lott does. Try West Virginia sinking under the weight of Byrd's pork. Don't let your hatred of Lott blind you. BTW, I thought of you when I read this portion of the NYT's Obit of Ambrose.

>>>>. He was for much of his career a ponytail-wearing liberal who once quit a teaching job at Kansas State University in protest over a campus visit from Richard Nixon during the bombings of Laos and Cambodia.

As a young professor, Ambrose counted himself among the growing number of new left professors who often taught what was wrong with America, criticizing the treatment of native Americans, U.S. motives for the Mexican-American war and neglect of the environment.<<<<<<<
