A top Senate Republican on Sunday announced his support for sweeping climate change legislation, disputing the "conventional wisdom" that says Congress simply cannot tackle the issue this year.
Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., co-authored an op-ed with Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., in The New York Times calling for action on legislation.
Kerry rolled out a Senate climate change bill alongside Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., late last month. A Graham aide said Sunday that the South Carolina Republican was not explicitly endorsing that bill, but stands ready to work with Kerry toward some version of legislation to combat global warming.
Though even Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has expressed doubt that the Senate can address the issue at the same time it's engineering health care reform, Graham and Kerry said a bipartisan bill is possible before a major international climate change summit in Copenhagen in December.

Graham is simply so afraid everyone in SC will find out he is Gay, so he does what ever the Dems tell him to do.
re: being Gay. He is a Colonel in the USAF Reserve JAG, and is a clear example of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell!”
They don’t ask; he doesn’t tell.
And they need to do something to combat unicorns and leprechauns.
If Graham is any Freeper’s Senator please send him the following:

When mccain and gramm get together I wonder who is the pitcher and who is the catcher and do they use vasoline?
Who are your senators?
Lindsey faced no serious opposition, several individuals opposed him in the primary but their combined votes couldn't force Lindsey into a runoff. He pulled all of the "party faithful" and the moderates.
The Democrats didn't even field a candidate in the general election. An independent jumped into the void and ran as a (D), many of us on the right voted for him but it was futile. With the straight party Rs, the moderates and the cross-over Ds all voting for him he won in a landslide that even CNN could call one minute after 8pm.

Little Lord Flimsey Tinkerbelle is a fifty-five year old bachelor.
Easy to see why.
As a South Carolinian, I apologize to the nation for this catwalking missey to be occupying the chair of the late, great Strom Thurmond. But I didn’t vote for him. Gag reflex was too overpowering.
He’s either ignorant or malicious to support this corrupt power grab.
Graham is McCain’s Lady In Waiting.
He never misses an opportunity to miss an opportunity.
Thanks! I just sent him a link to this"
BBC: What happened to global warming?
Everyone else should do the same!
Good grief. I thought that Lindsay Graham was as dumb as a rock. But he’s even dumber than a rock. No sane rock would come out with a statement like this.
Cool cartoon even though I don’t totally get what’s going on. Do you know who the lion represents?
Which Graham took as a mandate.
Hm. Mandate. Man-date. Man date.
Whom does Graham date? Or is he not telling?
Thanks for posting.
Incredible!
Scalawags and scoundrels and scamsters support Climate Change legislation.
Which one is Grahamnesty?
The only meltdown that’s gonna occur is the RINO’s getting tossed from office in the next election!
