POLITICO ^ | January 17, 2017 | Martin Matishak

Lindsey Graham, one of the Senate GOP's leading proponents of a select committee to investigate Russian meddling in the election, won't be taking over a new cybersecurity panel to investigate the issue.

Sen. John McCain, chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, confirmed on Tuesday that Graham — his good friend — would not be heading the new subcommittee devoted entirely to cyber issues, contrary to earlier statements McCain had made.

They might have passed him over because he’s a closet gay and all the other countries got the good on him. That’s why he’s doing what he’s told by Juan McCain and the CIA.

Flimsey Grahamnesty should have been booted from office in 2014.
He had already tried to pass amnesty and arm jihadists.

What does it take for South Carolina voters to dump a traitor?

Who knew the Senate has a No Couple May Serve On The Same Committee rule?

McCain should recuse himself, after demonstrating just what a gullible, partisan hack he really is. The guy clearly has an agenda, and will not be fair and impartial.

I got all choked up and I threw down my gun
Called him my Pa, and he called me his son
And I come away with a different point of view
And I think about him, now and then
Every time I try and every time I win
And if I ever have a son, I think I’m gonna name him
Bill or George! Anything but Sue! I still hate that name! Yeah

Being #nevertrumpers, both McCain and Linda Graham should recuse themselves from this “investigation.” They are biased against and hate President Trump.

Didn’t Lindsey Graham actually vote for Egg McMuffin, who was a one-state (Utah) joke candidate?

Now that you mention it, I’m fairly certain he did. So, they’ve got a little cabal worked up. McCain’s shook enough to try to create the illusion of not ganging up on this committee. Trying but not succeeding. He needs to remove his own sorry carcass from any position of influence upon the matter.

“What does it take for South Carolina voters to dump a traitor?”

A closed Republican primary. If only Republicans were allowed to vote in the South Carolina primaries Linda would have been gone a long time ago.
