I’d take Rumsfeld over Grahamnesty any day.
For example, Grahamnesty voted for Sotomayor— hard to imagine Rummy doing that.

With Republicans like Graham, Snowe, Collins, McCain, Gregg, etc. The Democrats really have a 70-30 majority in the Senate.

Grahamnesty is a media whore. If there’s a camera or a reporter around he’s going to make sure he’s the one they talk to.

Rummy is a great American from the old school and IMO much maligned. Lindsy couldn't shine his shoes.

McCain is running for re-election and will remain relatively quiet until after November 2010, except for the days that he forgets to take his Aricept...lest he give Simcox fodder to use against him.

Instead we should do a “Lindsey”....and allow as many drug-dealers enter our border so that we do not upset those already here illegally.

I’m aware. But it seems like this is the sort of comment McCain normally delivers. Perhaps McCain gave it to Grahamnesty to use.
