A post on the Sirotablog quotes the greedy Senator's past rhetoric:
NOW & THEN: Trent Lott on suing & lawsuitsNever underestimate the willingness of a slimy politician to prescribe one thing for society, and then do another thing in his own personal life.
NOW:"Mississippi Sen. Trent Lott and his wife sued State Farm Fire & Casualty Co. to force the insurer to pay for damage to their house in Pascagoula on the Gulf of Mexico, which was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina."
- Wall Street Journal, 12/16/05THEN:
"The Democrats seem to think that the answer is a lawsuit. Sue everybody."
- Sen. Trent Lott, 7/20/01"I'm among many Mississippi citizens who believe tort reform is needed."
- Sen. Trent Lott, 5/8/02"You know, obviously we should [enact tort reform]...Someday it will happen, and the sooner the better."
- Sen. Trent Lott, 1/24/01" Sen. Trent Lott of Mississippi today credited the agenda of tax cuts, deregulation and tort reform initiatives passed by the Congress and signed into law by President Bush with the overall upturn in the national economy."
