It's a little less specific than what Lott said. Again, if Dodd had said Jefferson would have been a great man during the civil war, would you automatically gripe? I realize its absurd to compare the two as statesmen, but Jefferson owned slaves and lived in the South, so by the same logic as you're applying here that comment would be tantamount to advocating slavery. I would disagree.
Aside from that I should say I don't think Lott should have been hammered like he was. But really, what damage did that "scandal" do? Do you think he lost one single vote because of it? Do you think it's all that great a job to be majority leader?
Ah screw it. This is Chris fucking Dodd we're talking about, a guy who's known his share of screwups. If you want to get bent out of shape about it I won't be able to tell you you're wrong. The Media will turn a deaf ear to this because it is on Our Side. KNEEL BEFORE ITS AWESOME POWER.

I've now seen it all.
Note to those on the left - it's ok to admit once in a while that one of your own is wrong. We on the right do it all the time (eg., overspending, marriage rights, persecution of porn, etc.)
