GRAHAM'S FAILURE OF INTELLIGENCE

New York Post ^ | 7/19/03

I am not sure the word 'intelligence' is appropriate in connection with Senator Bob Graham, aka the Graham 'Cracker', because he does not have any intelligence.

[Fearless Flyers]

he never did anything that put him on my "Enemies" list- but since then, he is making up for lost time.

Maybe this will help, excerpted from his web site.

During Graham’s two terms as governor, Florida brought more environmentally endangered lands into public ownership than any other state in the nation.

Please ping me if your letter gets published. I am so sick of people inside our own country acting like they want America to sink if Democrats can't hold the power.

We have to speak up and make this our mantra.

Thanks for looking- this sort of pointless partisan nonsense makes me spitting mad. I won't forget, or forgive.

During Graham’s two terms as governor, Florida brought more environmentally endangered lands into public ownership than any other state in the nation.

Thanks for pointing that out- another way to put that is "using the power and might of the government to coerce folks to part with their property, and using their own tax money to pay for it..."

Sent letter off to Orlando Sentinel with all your words of wisdom...........now we'll see if they will print it!!

If they don't print it maybe the St. Petersburg Times will. They wrote an article in February about the "mental fog" that persists in heart srugery patients.

Recovering from a body beating[excerpt on Free Republic] Recovering from a body beating [actual SPTimes article]

When Sen. Bob Graham underwent surgery Friday for a faltering heart valve, he and more than 200 other Americans that day had a procedure that has become routine in its frequency yet remains brutal in its assault on the body.

[snip]

Almost three-fourths of heart patients have some cognitive dysfunction -- called "brain fog" -- for as long as six months after surgery. In about 10 percent, the mental fuzziness is permanent, Singh says.

As redlipstick points out ,in another thread, Graham's surgery turned out to be even more extensive than folks were told at the time the SP Times article came out.

"Graham tried to back away a bit, claiming that 'impeachment is not a subject I have ever raised on my own'"

ROTFLOL ... the doddering old fool has just admitted he got the idea from HITLERY OR X42, OR McAWFUL, OR CARVILLE, OR SHRUM. "on my own" indeed Senator Graham - you should be ashamed for allowing yourself to be used by these people.

As Scarborough pointed out - all these dems who are yelling the loudest about this issue were all in a leadership position and would have had almost as much info re the intel as the President; and they evidently thought the intel was okay last October.

Can any Floridian tell me if Bob Graham has always talked in such a 'breathless' way - not really saying his words forcefully. To me, his delivery sounds like someone with lung disease - emphysema or asthma, and I am wondering if this is another result of his surgery, or if his heart is not as good as he would like to believe.

Sen. Bob Graham should quit job

By Martha Kirby Satellite Beach

Several Florida Today articles in the past have discussed the risk of brain damage to heart patients who undergo surgery.

Recent statements attributed to Sen. Bob Graham, D-Miami Lakes, supports these medical findings.

Following his heart surgery, Graham has said President Bush's administration has a Nixonian stench, and has given credence to theories about right-wing conspiracies.

Such remarks can only mean that Graham has lost his mind, and should retire due to medical disabilites.

[syriacus]

Interesting....Graham's grandchildren call him "Doodle."
