1 A completely unqualified idealogue.  And she'll be easily confirmed.  Thanks, Grahamnesty!

2 How the heck do we get a leftist like Graham from SC?

What the heck people?

3 Miss Lindsey never fails to disappoint.

2 How the heck do we get a leftist like Graham from SC?

And why are there no true conservatives there to run against him?

Thanks again, S. Carolina.

Home of the Gamecocks!

Lindsey is really Arlen 2.1

8 The real question?
Why is the GOP allowing this turd on the Judicary Committe? They know he will do this...

9 Lindsay Graham?  RINO!

10 Pansey Graham needs to go.

11 "I think there's a good reason for a conservative to vote yes," Graham told his colleagues. He added that she was "smart ... and she's funny, that goes a long way in my book."

Lindsey Graham is an ass.  We should take him para-sailing.

12 Lindsey's middle finger has got to be tired by now.

13 Hey, I'm smart and funny!  Where's my SCOTUS nod?

14 How the heck do we get a leftist like Graham from SC?

And why are there no true conservatives there to run against him?

There were some shenanigans at the primaries in 2008. Also recall that a lot of the conservatives stayed at home in 2008. But he did have two primary opponents and what is funny is that he did have to do a run-off afterward because he failed to get 50% of the vote even as an incumbent.  That is almost unheard of here.

The way things are going this year if he was running again it would be a landslide for anybody but him. He has been censured by three local Republican caucuses.

Where is the Mel Gibson and Elena Kagan audio?

 

Something tells me the judiciary hearing audio + the Gibson rants = comedy gold.

16

Where is the Mel Gibson and Elena Kagan audio?

 

That's okay, I'd rather her NOT blow me.

17 I would also be willing to bet that the Republican leadership told them that there would be no filibuster and they chose the member of the committee with the longest to go before reelection to be the traitor.

18 I think there's a good reason for a conservative to vote yes," Graham told his colleagues. He added that she was "smart ... and she's funny, that goes a long way in my book."

So, from what I hear, is Fidel Castro.

You gotta be f*cking kidding me.

20 Well you have to admit, we do have a long standing history of electing comedians to the supreme court.

In fairness, that's how 52% of America voted for Obama.

22 The.heat.of.a.thousand.suns. couldn't warm up the starter of the engine that is my hate machine for Lindsay Cocksucker Graham.

23 I wouldn't put a lot of stock in that statement about funny. It is pure BS rhetoric and most likely has nothing to do with the real reason to vote yes.

I was the original Carrot Top!

Where does the GOP find all of these RINO sellouts?  They have an inexhaustable supply, or so it appears. 

So if the Senate flips to the GOP in November, Grahamesty becomes Judiciary Chair, right?  Good reason to hope the Socialists hang onto that chamber.  Meanwhile, the GOP needs to reassign Grahamnesty.

26 To Lindsay Graham (and all the rest like him): FUCK YOU, YOU FUCKING FUCK! Primary this bastard. And filibuster this communist hack Kagan 'til Hell freezes over!

27

"I think there's a good reason for a conservative to vote yes," Graham told his colleagues. He added that she was "smart ... and she's funny, that goes a long way in my book."

Did a conservative vote for her? Smart and funny. Is Pansy Graham going on a date with it?

28

Lindsay Graham was the only Republican voting yes.

After Joe Barton got his leadership positions threatened for merely speaking the turth (thank G-d someone did) about the extortion by the Indonesian Imbecile and his junta, I demand that Lady Lindsay have ALL COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENTS immediately pulled.  No discussion.  No negotiations. 

And, if the GOP can't get this simple thing taken care of, all of that leadership must step down.

Enough, already.  Lady Lindsay is a serious threat to this nation and so are those in the GOP ranks who do anything but shun the asswipe.

29 and they chose the member of the committee with the longest to go before reelection to be the traitor.

I have to disagree, Vic.  Grahamnesty did this all on his own.  He loves fucking the GOP and America over.  This is the second insane SCOTUS nomination that has gotten out of committee because of Grahamnesty.  No one needs to prod Lady Lindsay to be a traitor.  It comes naturally to him.

30 28 - RIGHT ON. nuff said.

31 McConnel, if you dont throw this putz off the J Committee today, I may need to borrow sifty's hate machine for your ass too.

32 I have to disagree, Vic.  Grahamnesty did this all on his own.  He loves fucking the GOP and America over.

I offered that up as a possible, not necessarily the only.

33 How was what she did in the partial-birth abortion case not suborning perjury?

34 Vic - any thought with regards to a recall, this cycle would be the one to do it.

35 Look folks, I can get as pissed-off at Scott Brown as the next guy - and I'll certainly be well on my way to "Heat-of-a-thousand-suns" mode if, as appears likely, he also votes to put Kagan on the SCOTUS - but seriously, he's elected from Massa-freaking-chusetts.  Peoples' Republic, thereof.

This crapweasel comes from one of the allegedly most conservative states in the entire US in the entire history of ever.

Would he not, therefore, have to be considered, uh, low-hanging fruit for a primary challenge?

Just saying.

Are Lindsey Graham and Larry Marchant related?

37 And the RNC and NRSC wonder why I hang up on them when they come calling for donations... 

38 @35
Yup. 

39 I offered that up as a possible, not necessarily the only.

Posted by: Vic at July 20, 2010 01:14 PM (/jbAw)

I assumed that, Vic.  There's no doubt that one or two of the other GOP members appreciated the fact that Lindsay was doing it, so they didn't have to.  I just think that Lady Lindsay was pretty hot to cast this "Yea" vote from the very beginning.  I mean, we all knew this was coming from the day of the nomination and pretty much everyone knew that Grahamnesty was going to let her out of committee.

40 JugEars: What's the matter, Miss? Hasn't Lindsey attended to your needs?

Ms Kagan: Oh, no.. he's really attended to my needs.. He was wonderful! The earth moved! In fact, it moved so muich, I don't think I can take any more!

JugEars: That's my Lindsey! Yeah. He's my bread-and-butter man. You see, in my schedule I got eight girls, and Lindsey. Come on, Lindsey, let's go, man. They got some hungry women in Beddendorf waiting for the Garden Lizard.

Ms Kagan: Lindsey? Lindsey? Lindsey, I just want to thank you for tonight. I'm never going to forget it.

Lindsey Graham: Well, thank you, ma'am. I do what I can. Because I'm Lindsey Graham, Male Prostitute.

41 Lindsey Graham, fucking traitor to the Constitution and America.

This is your legacy Lindsey.  You own it now!  You sold out.

42 So, whoever has those pictures of Lindsey Graham and that stud lifeguard from IoP -- there really isn't any reason left not release them.

43 Could we trade Lady Lindsay to Russia for some random prisoners?  We'd even be well ahead if we traded Lindsay for the 10 Russian spies back, to walk free.

44 Vic - any thought with regards to a recall, this cycle would be the one to do it.

There are no provisions in the Constitution for recall of federal legislators. 

There are only four ways for a Senator to be removed from office; (1) Vote them out (rare) (2) Die in office (most common) (3) Senate votes them out (even rarer than voting them out) and (4) The retire (when it looks like they will be voted out, rare).

Maybe we can work out a prisoner swap at the LA County Jail.   One histrionic, vain, and self-loathing individual for Lindsay Lohan. 

46 Yes, Sen. Graham, I can see why you would think she's smart.

47 Yep.  Pull his committee assignments.  Something is seriously wrong with him. Blackmail or madness, nothing else explains him being this big of a prick.

48 I heard that bastard Graham on the radio earlier today practically gushing over his vote for Kagan.  He makes me absolutely sick.  I'm in SC & will do everything I can to assure this weasel gets crushed and booted out.  He is no friend to Republicans, conservatives, this country.  We have to get this effeminate ass out of the Senate.

49 Lindsey just wanted to help Kagan's vagina out its depression.

A depressed Supreme Court vagina is not a good thing.

50
This is so wonderful.  Misses Graham and Kagan can go to the gay bars together, with Lindsey shopping for a boner, and Elena looking for tacos or clams.

51 Vic - Ok, then make him a dead man walking, change the primary nominating rules in SC to require the positive vote of each local Republican caucus to get on the primary ballot.

52 Vic - Ok, then make him a dead man walking, change the primary nominating rules in SC to require the positive vote of each local Republican caucus to get on the primary ballot.

Unfortunately most of the primary rules, as they are in most States, are set by the State legislature.

53 next he'll come out for gay marriage and marry fat Larry Lindsey in Massachusetts with Scott Brown presiding-his new name will be Lindsey Lindsey which is unfortunate but at least its not Lindsey Lohan who is going to jail where Lindsey Lindsey would like to be to play find the tat needle with his fellow cons in the shower    ba dum bump!

54 There must be MUCH more than just the threat of being outed hanging over Miss Lindsey's head.  I hope he realizes that he just guaranteed that this will be his last term in the Senate....

55 The irony is that Graham's last opponent, in 2008, Bob Conley, is more CONSERVATIVE than Graham has ever been- when on the House judiciary Committee, he voted against two of the four articles of impeachment being considered.  his 2008 re election was also supposed to be his last, yet he survived.  (Even if he does come out of the closet, it won't hurt him- the gay rumours have been around for years and no one has cared)

56 I demand that Lady Lindsay have ALL COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENTS immediately pulled.  No discussion.  No negotiations. 

And, if the GOP can't get this simple thing taken care of, all of that leadership must step down.

+10^13 on that

WTF is wrong with the syphilitically-demented GOP "leadership?" Grow a freaking pair, dammit!

57 I have a feeling Graham is a "which way is the wind blowing?" kind of guy.  Should by some miracle, Republicans overcome ACORN-style vote fraud on a massive scale and actually take some seats this November, he would probably side more with the Republicans at that point.

58

o/t  Graham is a homo.

 

59 If you're not a Northeastern Country Club Republican and you want to be a member of  The Ruling Class then you have to do a little extra.

See also McCain.

60

What is the point of rallying tens of millions of Americans to oppose this malignant threat to our country when it can all be undone by one treacherous pusilanimous fool.

Lindsey Graham, you're currying the favor of the elites at a moment where hatred for them is at the tipping point.  You're on the wrong side of history, honey

61 Somebody needs to put their dick in Lindsey's mouth before he starts trying to think next time. Spencer Ackerman something something...

62 Republicans better win at least 13 new seats in the Senate, because those three weasels, Lindsey Graham, Scott Brown and Charlie Crist, will be caucusing with the Democrats, even if they don't switch parties, which is very likely, also..
