Lott slams shrub, Dole: "long knives out" for bugman
http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/story/301081p-257759c.html

Former Sen. Bob Dole yesterday joined the list of top Republicans urging embattled House Majority Leader Tom DeLay to come clean on his ethics troubles.

"My advice would be the sooner you can get out and tell your story the better. Lay it all out," Dole told CNN's "Late Edition." "I think maybe the long knives are out for Tom DeLay."

Sen. Trent Lott (R-Miss.) defended DeLay by slamming President Bush, who allowed Lott to be toppled as Senate majority leader over an ethics problem.

"I do think the White House needs to remember that people who fight hard for you as a candidate and for your issues as a President deserve your support, aggressive support," Lott said

You fell from Bush's grace because you opened your dumb trap. By threatening to defund Republicians who didn't support him, DeLay also threatened the Bush White House power base--THAT'S why the long knives are out. Who cares what you think, anyway? Shut your face and eat your popcorn!

:popcorn: (did DU come up with this smiley at just the right time, or what?)

4. The serious mud-wrestling begins! Lott finally cuts loose
with his resentment.
