Wow! Trent Lott Says "No Snitching!"

More proof that it's not just a ghetto, Hip-Hop kind of thing!

Desperate to cover-up the increasing conservative divisions over Iraq, Senate Minority Whip Trent Lott (R-MS) today blasted the Republicans who spoke to the media about their meeting on Tuesday with President Bush.

During a CNN appearance today, Lott said that he was “concerned” that the Republicans “had this frank discussion with the president, which could have been very positive, and then they came out and started talking about it.”

“[T]hey broke one of the cardinal rules, in my opinion,” Lott said. “If they’d have kept their mouths shut, their value of speaking candidly would have been worth a lot more.”

I hate to keep harping on this but since 60 minutes and CNN felt the need to put that ignorant Cam'ron on blast for the whole world to hear and judge, I just think we ought to see that the same concept holds true in many other elements of society.

Update: Seems Rove and Cheney are pissed about the "snitching" too:
Rove's anger popped up in today's Washington Post:

White House political adviser Karl Rove, furious that Republican moderates had divulged a confrontational meeting they had on Tuesday with Bush on the war, started yesterday with an angry conversation with the meeting's organizer, Rep. Mark Steven Kirk (R-Ill.), according to several GOP lawmakers. Dan Meyer, the White House's chief lobbyist, called the other participants to express the administration's unhappiness.

Cheney's was broadcast on the GOP channel and picked up by the NY Times:

Some White House officials privately expressed displeasure Thursday that the concerns the Republican moderates raised with the president became public. Vice President Dick Cheney did not mince words in an interview with the Fox News Channel. “We didn’t get elected to be popular,” Mr. Cheney said. “We didn’t get elected to worry just about the fate of the Republican Party.”
