Graham-Kerry the Next McCain-Feingold?

Lindsey Graham is at it again, playing the same game he learned from his good friend John McCain. When will Republicans in Congress realize that they always get a raw deal when they attempt to reach "bi-partisan" agreements with Democrats? One would think Senator Graham would have already learned the nearly disastrous lesson of his support for amnesty in 2006, but a dual op-ed with John Kerry from Sunday on the Waxman-Markey Cap and Trade bill shows that he has not.

The worst thing Graham does is agree that man made global warming exists and is a problem.

"First, we agree that climate change is real and threatens our economy and national security. That is why we are advocating aggressive reductions in our emissions of the carbon gases that cause climate change."

We see a typical first step towards GOP disaster, the acceptance and desire to solve a non-existent problem. With John McCain it was campaign finance, or how to solve the problem of free people freely donating their money for political purposes. With Graham it's the global warming scam.

Once having accepted the false premise that a problem exists, Graham follows McCain's path of working together with the other side to see what he can salvage in a compromise. Working from a decided position of weakness, no compromise is going to come close to the freedom that will be given up. But Graham is undeterred. This is the second worst thing he does: believing he can achieve worthwhile compromise...

Where do I buy sunspot credits?

Since volcanoes spew more 'pollutants' than man, will the Climate Czar invent a mountain-plug to sequester the lava?

Will Congress outlaw tectonic plate shifting?

Where's my moon, my levy, my dream?
Bombed, leaking, and Marxist nightmare!

Is Kerry is such a gigolo that he moved on to another girlfriend in Lindsey?
