Welcome New York times readers. For some interesting reading, see a few posts below about the Council for National Policy. Also, read this article (not by me) about a Neo-confederate Editor of the Washington Times, and some additional information on that here.
When Lott's comments first broke, Washington Times Assistant National Editor Robert Stacy McCain said that he agreed with Gordon Baum, chief executive of the Council of Conservative Citizens, who commented "God Bless Trent Lott." Strangely, I find myself agreeing with both of them right now, though likely not for identical reasons.
