I liked Lindsey, especially for his comments during the bent one's impeachment, but I'm afraid he cast his lot with McCain one time too many.

Lindsey has been acting like a Washington insider for some time now. Sounds like he thinks that a really bad immigration bill is better than no bill at all. I think no bill is far better than Fat Ted’s really bad bill.

I think that Goober Graham’s dreams of being Johnny McLame’s VP are headed dans le Toilette! Where they belong, imho.

"If you don’t like President Bush’s proposal come up with one of your own"

Enforce the 1986 immigration laws.

“Immigration got booed,” Graham said afterward. “It’s an emotional topic. People are mad.”

Understatement of the year

Yep. I think the country has found a unifying issue.

Goober`s done, hopefully.

I pray Conservatives will sit out the next election and get rid of this pansy.

President Jorge Nacho Bush and the republican conquistadors are handing a victory to the wicked witch of NY/ARK. Is this a coincidence or is there something far more sinister going on? I guess it doesn’t matter since we get screwed either way.

A dem for a replacement would be worse. We need to make GOP changes in the primaries, not the general election.

How many GOP congressional incumbents were ousted in the primaries in the last election cycle?

Notice the spin: they weren't booing "immigration", they were booing amnesty, open borders, and treason.

“If you don’t like President Bush’s proposal come up with one of your own that can get support in the Congress to control immigration — which is in chaos,” Graham said.

This is easy, simply enforce the laws we have now, particularly the laws pertaining to the employers of these illegals. Pass a few simple laws that increase the penalty( jail time and heavy fines plus shutting down businesses )for hiring illegals and the illegals will self deport when they can't get jobs and it will also stop new ones from comming here. A no brainer that our pols can't figure out!

How many times do you cut your nose to spite your face?

What if Graham is replaced by someone like Harry Reid or Nancy Pelosi?
