trent lott: We have met the enemy, and it is us

i cant quite get the details on this story - sometimes i miss not having american tv!

here is a post from dkos in full:
"Too funny! Hastert and Frist make a big show of calling for an investigation into a leak allegedly affecting national security -- the locations of secret "black site" torture prisons. And then -- BOOM!!! Lott just said, Tuesday afternoon, that he thinks it was a GOP Senator who leaked the info to the Washington Post last week. He says the details had been discussed at a GOP Senators-only meeting last week, and that many of those details made it into the WaPo story.

Money quote from Lott; "We can not remain silent. We have met the enemy, and it is us."

All just reported on CNN. We are, folks, witnessing the full-on implosion of the national Republican Party. And not a second too soon."
firedoglake is trying to put together the story as well

and atrios via rawstory: " (Lott) said he believes when all is said and done it may wind up as an ethics investigation of a Republican senator, maybe a Republican staffer as well."

brilliant
