South Carolina voters, read your Senators comments. This man hates his own voters. Come primary time, what are you going to do about it?

I was listening to CSPAN 2 when the votes on cloture were recorded and I could swear I heard Graham’s vote recorded as a “no”. Am I wrong?

“You saw what happened to Senator Daschle.”

That's right, he got shit-canned by the voters, just like YOU will when you run for re-election, you worthless pile of steaming dog dung......

THE PEOPLE WON!

Now keep the pressure on to build the entire FENCE. Secure the border! ENFORCE “ALL” the laws on the books including DEPORTING when found law. SANCTION employers who hire ILLEGALS heavily. Get rid of the demand for the jobs and ILLEGALS will leave.

VOTE ALL RINO’S OUT IN ‘08!

“There’s racism in this debate,” Mr. Graham said. “Nobody likes to talk about it, but a very small percentage of people involved in this debate really have racial and bigoted remarks. The tone that we create around these debates, whether it be rhetoric in a union hall or rhetoric on talk radio, it can take people who are on the fence and push them over emotionally"...
What gall. My opponents are racists, or moved by primitive emotions and baser instincts.

>Mr. Graham was referring to Tom Daschle, the former Democratic majority leader from South Dakota, whose office received a mailing of anthrax in 2001. The case remains unsolved.<

Good grief, I thought he was referring to the fact that Daschle got voted out of the people’s Senate on his well-padded derrierre.

I said it once and I'll say it again:

LINDSEY GRAHAM IS A DISGRACE TO HIS STATE, TO HIS OFFICE, AND TO AMERICA.

When the time comes I'll look at ways to help you South Carolina folks get rid of your embarrassment of a Senator.

Senator Lindsey Graham, a South Carolina Republican who is one of the architects of the immigration overhaul, said he also had received threats in telephone calls and letters to his office. Mr. Graham said several other senators had told him privately that they also received similar messages.

So? You are trying to destroy our country. You are working on legislation that will have far reaching negative effects on my community and my family. You are out to enrich yourself and bring potential harm to our posterity. Are we supposed to thank you?

“There’s racism in this debate,” Mr. Graham said. “Nobody likes to talk about it, but a very small percentage of people involved in this debate really have racial and bigoted remarks. The tone that we create around these debates, whether it be rhetoric in a union hall or rhetoric on talk radio, it can take people who are on the fence and push them over emotionally"...

Por la raza todo" (Everything for the race).

Were you saying something? Maybe you should pander to LaRaza some more? You hypocritical POS!

Dear Senator,
There is nothing racist about asking people to obey the same laws as those who were born here, who were naturalized, and those with visas. It's called playing by the rules. When you tried to change the laws to accommodate law breakers, we stopped you, and now you call us names...Senator, shame on you...

I saw what happened to Senator Daschle. He got voted out of office for being so far out of step with his constituents. Do you remember, Senator? Bye, Bye, Lindsey.

Well stated — yes, the American public CANNOT FORGET what now needs to be done. Not only do we have to get rid of the scumbag elitists who created this horrid monster, but THE LAWS ON THE BOOKS MUST BE ENFORCED AND THE FENCE MUST BE BUILT TO STOP ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION.

GET RID OF THE POLS WHO DID THIS, AND ENFORCE THE LAWS!!!!
