ot sure how we missed this, but South Carolina's RINO Sen. Lindsay Graham once again plays to his liberal friends in voting for Sonia Sotomayor for Supreme Court Justice.
Nice read on this from the American Spectator:
More evidence that Lindsey/Cindy Graham is the single worst Republican senator: He will vote to approve Sonia Sotomayor to the Supreme Court. He says the president's choice merits "deference." Oh, really?!? Then why did he show so much less deference to the choice of a president of his own party, Jim Haynes, even though the complaints against Haynes were utterly bogus and that even if they had been true, which they weren't, they still would have amounted to far less disqualifying behavior than some of the things that Sotomayor, by Graham's own admission, said and did?!?!?!?
Did somebody "get" to Graham? And why did he deliberately undermine the testimony of firefighter Frank Ricci?Lindsey Graham is absolutely despicable and the man shouldn't be elected dog-catcher let alone a U.S. Senator. The fact that conservative South Carolina has elected this guy again and again is unbelievable.What sort of weird game is Sen. Graham playing? And why?
We are getting the government we deserve.
He is much worse than Gov. Mark Sanford, even with the Girl from Ipanema scandal.
Graham should be recalled or removed from office.
....800 billion goes a long way when you need to push your anti American agenda
I can understand why California would elect Boxer and Feinstein (and they makes me sick). But I can’t understand why S. Carolina would elect Lindsay (and he makes me sick).
Graham voted for impeachment of Clinton in the House, then botched the case in front of the Senate.
He then used his House vote as a lever to get the SC Senate seat.
Since his becoming Senator, he has played politics with issues rather than having a clear ideological bone in his body.
Lindsey Graham.....just another politician who looks out for himself.
Hard to rate the worst when we also have Collins, Snowe, Lugar and Martinez competing for the same ‘prize’.
You would also think that Lindsey would reconsider his vote when presented with this evidence that Sotomayor obviously lied to him during her confirmation hearing: Sotomayor Backtracks on her Backtrack.
I think SC should seriously think about recalling this guy.
He is doing nothing that warrants impeachment. He is simply playing politics with the issues when the people of SC want a conservative in that office.
The best solution is to find a solid conservative to run against Graham in the next primary and boot his butt to the curb.
That is the answer to cure our RINO problems.
He will vote for this liberal judge but led the pack with his
14 gangsters in blocking Bush’s GOP judicial nominees’s. He is such a piece of S##t
He is playing McCain politics.
Sell your vote for payoffs. A power play for him to show how much clout he has. Of course, he forgets, he can’t fool the conservatives which is why McCain lost and he will lose in the end.
Wonder how much power the dems gave him to stab us in the back again. So nice to know you have people who will cave to the enemy when things get really hot for the enemy and their agenda.
