CHARLESTON, S.C. – Republican leaders in a South Carolina county have censured their own U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham for working with Democrats on a climate bill and other legislation.

The Republican has often worked with Democrats in Congress, but Charleston County Chairwoman Lin Bennett says his work on climate legislation is the last straw.

The party resolution passed Monday says Graham has weakened the Republican brand. Bennett expects a similar resolution to be introduced at the state GOP convention next year.

Gotta start somewhere. Lindsey certainly deserves it and is as good a place to start as any.

Tidal basin fever?

He was a lead Congresional prosecutor/investigator during the Clinton scandal years.

Sad to see him wimpify. He's no Strom.
(which may or may not be good in and of itself. but..)

Thank You SC, Keep up the pressure!

Seems to me that the much ballyhoo’d Mark Sanford is a global warming stooge as well

If he could ever get his head out McCain’s a$$ he might see straight. How far he has fallen. I met him at the Freeper’s Dinner for the House Impeachment Team. I felt honored at the time. I doubt I would shake his hand now. Who knows where it’s been?

Wow! This must be another of those "vicious attacks" by the GOP that I've been hearing about...

It's about time.

This is great news, I think party leaders are waking up to what will keep them in office and put them back in power.

Goobber didn’t do it alone. What are the other States going to offer up against their transgressors!

But...but...but...he has a rating of 89.97% From the American Conservative Union, how could this be?

Senate Ratings

What really ticks me off is the commentators like Michael Medved will whip this rating out when people complain about him and others like him (McCain, et al) being moderates or betraying conservatives.

What the hell good is a rating like this if just ONE vote on one piece of legislation can send the country off on a leftward tangent and increase the power the federal gov. forever.

bump for later

[uncbob]

I guess he is getting ready to switch parties

[Maverick68]

He reminds me of Moustache Guy from Family Guy..

I hope this is a harbinger of good things to come for America.

[TigersEye]

Excellent! Slap that RINO down.

[Bulldawg Fan]

They just reelected this idiot to the US Senate.
