Lindsey Graham Continues Moderate March [of the RINOs]
City Paper, Charleston, SC ^ | 2009-01-16 | Greg Hambrick

Posted on 01/16/2009 12:13:21 PM PST by rabscuttle385

After returning from a world trip with Vice President-elect Joe Biden, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) is now coming to the defense of the new administration’s pick for Tresurer Secretary, even in the face of criticism from fellow GOP members like, oh, Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.).

“These are not the times to think in small political terms,” said Senator Lindsey Graham, Republican of South Carolina, who … briefly met with reporters on Wednesday alongside Mr. Obama. “I think he is the right guy.”

Mr. Graham thereby validated what the president-elect had just said: That Mr. Geithner, by bipartisan agreement, is “uniquely qualified.”

The Republican Party is DEAD. It has nothing left to live for anyway.

How can one state have a Senator as good as DeMint and one as bad as Grahm?

Only if McCain leads. Graham is anything but a leader.

Moderate is a socialist pretending to be conservative.

It's irrelevant. We no longer have a two party system. It is one big socialist Republicrat party.

He doesn't need to switch. He already is a RAT. No need to make it Formal in fact that would cause him to be just another RAT ! ! ! ! ! ! !

That Mr. Geithner, by bipartisan agreement, is “uniquely qualified.”

What? Why not Wesley Snipes? Geithner is a garden variety tax crook.

Snipes appears to have better muscle tone, so looks better in front of the camera so he should have been the obvious choice.

Why was the job offered to the white tax crook instead of the black tax crook? Is this administration rascist?
