1 I voted against him in the primary & the general.  Don't blame me.

I was first ??  Wow !!  This is almost as good as getting my name in the pphone book !

3 I'm thinking there just isn't going to be any good news today.  Good lord.  I cant even start drinking for another 9 hours at least.  Shit.

4 Put a cork in it Lindsey.  Lord, I can't stand that squish.

It's going to be a long, miserable weekend.  However, watch the protests in DC.  Between the Marxist "anti-war" protesters, the pro-amnesty crowd, and the Tea Partiers, things could get interesting.  And not in a good way.

5 I consider it good news in a perverse sort of way. Adds to the ammo stock.

I have to wait until 5pm Pacific.  I am so glad I started drinking again last week.

7 Hey Grunt,

Just apply the Slaughter Solution and deem it to be 9 hours later...Cheers!

8 Alright.  Who the hell is he fucking?  That's the only thing that explains why he's going with the crazy here.

9 Lindsey Graham can go fuck himself, sideways, in the squeakhole, with a fresh pineapple

10

One good thing - Graham's shenanigans will get McCain permanently booted in Arizona as people wake up and see what's in store once McCain stops lying to the Republican primary voters. Even Palin won't be able to help him. Folks are pissed.

Hayworth is moving up with a bullet. I don't give a shot abiout the General, if it means that McCain and his Amnesty bullshit will come back with a vengence. It's tear up the party again, like it did when W stupidly pushed it onto us (hand in hand with McCain) and set the stage for the mess we have today.

The Republican Party will not be able to heal itself nationally and through 2012 until McCain gets permanently kicked out of power. He is that toxic.

11

I wish I was 87 instead of 27. At least at 87 I would only have a few more years to live in this statist utopia.

Does anyone believe the GOP can sustain a filibuster against Amnesty? I DON'T.

12 Never trust a man with a girls name.

13

Linday is the kind of politician we need to lead Republicanism into the next phase of Republicaness. 

14

"Hey Grunt,

Ha!  I wish I could.  Unfortunately Funemployement wont pay the bills...damnit.

15 Guy@12  Heh.  You reading my mind today?

16

Sounds like Lindsay wants to be rebuffed by Rahm.   IYKWIM

17 "These courts would offer defendants more rights than they had under the Bush administration, but fewer than they would be afforded in civilian court."

The president gets to say, "See, I'm a brilliant centrist." With a huge assist from Grahamnesty.  Meanwhile, as Drew points out, the libs won't let this go and any incremental movement left just gets them closer to their goal.  Memo to LG, they won't let this die just because you cut some "deal" that puts this to rest.  It will only be forgotten about by you. 

LG will be voted out in 2014.  Unfortunately, he'll team with B to the O to do sex to us many times before then.

18 Fucking RINO

19 Hope Rush can lift my spirits.

20 Pansie Gramcracker needs his ass kicked out of the Republican party.  This pile of steaming shit has no problem telling his constintuients to....... shut the fuck up, you cracker rednecks, you don't know what you're talking about.  He's very arrogant, no better than dinglebarry.  It's sickening.

21 Rush is playing audio from the TOTUS pep rally

22 It's also ironic that the weekend that Communism/Socialism/Fascism officially takes over the nation I'm taking the family to the Reagan Library...a sad reminder of yesteryear.

23 Why does he keep getting elected? Really, who here is from SC and can tell me why he keeps getting voted in - I don't get it.

24 What is the point of this silly post?

Do you really think you  have any influence on the Republican Party?

Republicans are acting in concert with Democrats to eviscerate the United States of America - and Lindsay Graham is the proof of that.

Do you think given the circumstances, Drew, that anyone who loves America should donate one fucking dime to the Republican Party when, with the active support of the party, Lindsey Graham is a member in good standing?

The Republican Party has been infiltrated by closeted Democrats.

Lindsay Graham is not a Republican.

25

Rush is playing audio from the TOTUS pep rally

So. Presidential.

 It.Isn't. Even. Funneh.

26 Why does he keep getting elected?

He keeps getting elected because the Republican Party wants him in office. They give him millions of dollars to run his campaigns.

He is doing precisely what the Republican Party wants him to do, or else Michael Steele would be on YouTube denouncing Lindsey Graham and his plan.

Is he?

No.

27 If only the people I have to negotiate with would be willing to give up something that I really want to have in exchange for something I'm going to give them in any event. 

28 "These courts would offer defendants more rights than they had under the Bush administration, but fewer than they would be afforded in civilian court."

Translation:  These scumbags will have more rights in this country than I will ever have.

29 How the hell does SC give us Jim DeMint and this little pansy?

32 He's of a similar demeanor and caliber as John Edwards.  He'll ask some spirited questions at a hearing and then vote to confirm the clown.  Amnesty with Schumer-sounds good to me says LG. 

33 Amnesty with Schumer-sounds good to me says LG. He took a shower with Rahm. Now he's starry-eyed all the time and eager to get a reach-around reach across the aisle.

34

Yes that is correct. Since McCain is up for reelection this year it's up to his best buddy Graham to assume the mantle of lead RINO. Graham makes me furious, I know he's sometimes on the right side on issues like healthcare and security. but this ammnesty stuff is POISON and would hand over a huge victory to Obama and the democrats and sink us. It total bullshit, He is a traitor.

Lindsey Graham can kiss my ass! I can't wait to support whoever runs against you, be it a Republican or Democrat.

35 Hey Lindsey time to come out of the closet......as a progressive.

36
We're at a point in our nation's history where we have a president whose only job in life was a brief stint as a Constitutional law professor has told the American people that he does not care about the process of passing laws in Congress, he only cares about signing the bills.


What the fucking fuck, over?

37 But his democrat opponent in S. Carolina would have been even worse.

38 Can we have a basketball thread to take a break? Morgan State opens up 5-0 on West Virginia.

39 We are becoming Venezuela.  Act accordingly.

40

Why not take this out on McCain? That's a great idea. We know they're blood brothers. If McCain doesn't distance himself from this then we can all assume he is just sitting on his hands because its and election year, but we all know if it weren't he'd be there extending his friendly hand across the aisle.

 

We need to get rid of all these dinosaurs.

41 Graham: sometimes the job of the opposition is just to OPPOSE. This dude is so into compromise, if someone wanted to assfuck him, instead of saying "hell no" he'd say "How about I just suck you off and toss your salad?" and be happy about it.

42 29 How the hell does SC give us Jim DeMint and this little pansy?

Posted by: Mal at March 19, 2010 12:13 PM (Z+qzA)

You got me. And sadly, one of the many tragedies of ObamaCare is that it will end research into the promised bioweapon that can distinguish between Graham and DeMint primary voters.

43

I know he's sometimes on the right side on issues like healthcare and security. but this ammnesty stuff is POISON and would ... sink us.

Slow poison or fast poison.

Life is not on the ballot.

44 31 Hey, guys.  On the upside there will be 16,000 job openings in the IRS

And you might get one of those shiny new shotguns the IRS just bought.

45

So Graham will be a yes vote, too.

46

WTF happened to South Carolina that they'd tolerate this little pussybitch?  I thought SC was about as red a state as it gets.

47 Morgan State up 10-0!

48
You ever notice EVERY time the Republicans start gaining traction and momentum in public favor there's ALWAYS some Republican who comes along and fucks it up?

I'm starting to think we have mini-Manchurians in the Republican party who have been programmed to sabotage the GOP.

49

when is Graham up for re-election?

i will support, with my money, any conservative who opposes him.

Linsdey Graham is the DEVIL! 

50

Graham's yet another RINO who'll be swept out of office soon.

If we can survive the progressive destruction of our country, that is.

51 McCain can go fuck himself as well. Even if that cocksucker voted on every fucking bill the way I want him to, his history is enough to make me despise him for the rest of his life.

52 when is Graham up for re-election?

2014.

53 #51 Uncle Facts, don't be so mean.  Think of Meggy Mac. 

54
In September '08, the Republicans made huge strides in public favor with the Drill Here/Drill Now movement,

THEN a bunch of cocksucking 'moderate' Republicans came along and put ki-bosh on it.

Remember that? McCain desperately needed that momentum and it came right on the heels of Obama suggesting we inflate our tires as the centerpiece of his energy policy.

55 Graham still believes is AGW. That about says it all.

56
And can someone please tell me why Michael Steele, that big fucking loser, is still the chairman of the RNC?

57 Hey, morons.  I just had a "brilliant" idea.  Maybe AoSHQ can get a deal on Gitmo.  With a little "re-decorating" it would make a nice compound for us, when we escape the Socialist States of America.  Nice climate, fishing, scuba diving, plus, didn't we just upgrade the place and add a bunch of flat screen TV's?

He was a lecturer, not a professor.

Also, this bill includes tax ["revenue"] increases which originated in the Senate, contrary to the requirement that all tax increases must originate in the House:

Section. 7. All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with Amendments as on other Bills.

I loved Gitmo, spent 5 months there back in '94-'95 as a wire walker for Haitian and Cuban refugees.  It was gorgeous and had all you listed and more.  I'd be up for that.

Will there be pudding...and beer?

 

64 This is why Hayworth is a better deal in the long run than McCain. Sooner or later McCain will return to the backstabbing of conservatives he enjoys so much.

65

Lindsay Graham.. this asshat might as well wander around with a name tag on that says underneath his name "Democratic Party Stooge".  What an idiot.

I can only hope that he, McCain and the rest of the Democrats posing as Republicans will get their asses outted in their next re-election cycle.  The republican's need to understand that this "Were Democrat Lite" strategy just isn't going to fly anymore. 

What worries me is that while I have seen some signs of life from the republican side of the aisle the party itself seems conspiciously absent.  I haven't seen or heard a peep out of Steele in quite a while, for example.

On the upside the vote count is still up in the air, so I for one intend to keep calling, faxing, emailing and harrasing not only the maybe's on the list but the recent sell outs as well. 

 

66

The fiscal floodgates are opening for the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), the presidentÂ’s former employer and legal client, despite a congressional ban on funding the activist group that has long been a practitioner of election fraud.

In a March 16 memo Office of Management and Budget (OMB) director Peter Orszag quietly ordered federal agencies to resume funding the group whose employees were caught on hidden camera videos last year condoning a variety of crimes including child prostitution and tax evasion

He also wants to shift the west bank from European command separating it from Israel, putting it into Central command.

He can go fuck himself!

That's not true, he was misquoted and the lefty press ran with it.

84 Graham has always been Bat shit crazy but the people who vote for him are worse. I'd drive a thousand extra miles to avoid S.C. and everytime I'm shopping for something on EBay and it's located in S.C. I just forget it and keep looking. Anyone notice the troops in the field have caught up with facts and no longer take prisoners. Kill them on the spot or turn them over to the Paki's (same as killing them) and avoid a lot of problems.

Here as well.

88 You ever notice EVERY time the Republicans start gaining traction and momentum in public favor there's ALWAYS some Republican who comes along and fucks it up?

Gee, you think that's an accident? Really? Just coincidence, huh?

Look, the Republican Party has been infiltrated by Democrats.

That's why you can't give money to the Republican Party until such time as it expels the Democrat members such as Lindsay Graham and others who wish to "reach across the aisle" and help Democrats enact their legislation.

Those members need to be spat upon and expelled from the Party.

If you must donate, send your check to the Tea Party and a copy to the Republican Party letting them know that you'll resume your donations to the Republican Party once it expels the Democrats that have infested it.

89 Diana West has the story as well and other information about this guy Petraeus.

He is a self-described Rockefeller Republican (AKA Rino) and I think he is another Colin Powell who just hasn't come out yet.

This basically proves what my third-party Wyoming-living Ron Paul-voting loony friends say.

All politics is a stage show between two wings of the same party, the American Ruling Class Party.

If the East Coast establishment Republicans weren't in bed with their Democrat buddies, Graham and McCain would have been kicked out of the party a long time ago and we wouldn't have Michael Steele's leadership. He has been worse than no chairman at all.

Your source claims...

Actually, that’s not what Petraeus said. Rather, it’s pulled from the 56-page Central Command “Posture Statement” filed by his staff with the Senate Armed Services Committee.

Ummm... the claim that it was filed by his staff and doesn't reflect his views is kinda silly!

The title of the PDF is...

STATEMENT OF GENERAL DAVID H. PETRAEUS, U.S. ARMY
COMMANDER U.S. CENTRAL COMMAND
BEFORE THE SENATE ARMED SERVICES COMMITTEE ON
THE POSTURE OF U.S. CENTRAL COMMAND
16 MAR 2010

So I am gonna go with the wild and crazy idea that it was a STATEMENT of GENERAL DAVID H. PETRAEUS. I cannot go so far as to say that he personally typed up the report, but that's kind of beside the point.

So this guy Boot is claiming that because Petraeus didn't read it out loud somehow Petraeus' statement isn't actually his statement?

97 This guy's an idiot. If he just waits 8 months, he can have a BETTER negotiating position on these issues. Why would you want to do them now and help the Dems when you could wait until Nov. and negotiate from a more powerful position? Does he think if he doesn't make some compromises every year its not work?

98 This is just more Mojo Showboating.

99

Also, this bill includes tax ["revenue"] increases which originated in the Senate, contrary to the requirement that all tax increases must originate in the House:

I know folks like Mark Levine are planning lawsuits if this thing passes, I think perhaps our best chance though will be from the State of Virginia.

Granted you can't really rely on SCOTUS for much that resembles common sense half the time, but just from a layman's view this appears to be pretty much a slam-dunk.

I think the thing that pisses me off the most is this line of bullshit their trying to use that this is "business as usual" and that this has all "been done before by the republicans."

Bullshit.  The republican's may have used the reconciliation process a few times, but never on anything like this, and certainly they have never used this deem and pass bullshit, yet that's the response you get from every Dem who can get within range of a microphone whenever anyone asks them about deem and pass.

I just hope there are 288 job openings in November, all of them in the House of Representatives.

100 Sort of puts the occasions when Sen. Scott Brown (R-Commiechusetts) strays off the reservation into a bit of perspective, no?

101 I can't stand that arrogant ass.

102

#89, Petraeus doesn't have a political philosophy except a tendency toward autocracy. That's why I never take the presidential rumors seriously. His wife Holly was quoted in "Tell Me How This Ends" as "If he did run, he'd be doing it with his second wife".

Going back to Princeton as a college professor in International Relations, yes. SecState, maybe. Political office I seriously doubt.  

103 Posted by: SGT Dan at March 19, 2010 03:31 PM (GgXZc)

Yeah, I think it's the blank slate candidate thing. Like Colin Powell he looks good as long as you don't know anything about him. I doubt he will run either.

104 As the umpire said, "You're outta there."
