When the smarmiest Senate Democrat and the smarmiest Senate Republican sit down for talks on an issue of fundamental importance to the nation, and to the future of conservatism, conservatives should be very scared. When the smarmy Democrat is Chuck Schumer, a shrewd partisan, and the smarmy Republican is Lindsay Graham, a squish who gets his kicks from cooperating with Democrats, conservatives should panic.
Schumers objectives in the negotiations are clear: to reach a deal that will enable the Democrats (1) to cement their position as the Party that dragged reluctant Republicans into a breakthrough immigration deal, thereby keeping the Dems promise to Hispanics and (2) to cement his Partys future success by bringing millions of reliable Democratic voters into American politics.
Grahams objective is also clear. He wants to ensure his status as a star legislator who is able to broker bipartisan deals that address the nations most important problems.
Its obvious which Party will emerge as the winner in these negotiations.
I dont doubt that such a future is okay with Lindsey Graham, who isnt much of a conservative and who regards himself as above Party. Grahams name will be on landmark legislature and he will have been at the center of an historic, bipartisan deal, and thats what matters most to him.
I would once again call Lindsey Graham the Arlen Specter of the South, but to do so now would dishonor a dead man.

"The [immigration] bill will not flood our cities with immigrants. It
will not upset the ethnic mix of our society. It will not relax the
standards of admission. It will not cause American workers to lose
their jobs."

"This amnesty will give citizenship to only 1.1 to 1.3 million illegal
aliens. We will secure the borders henceforth. We will never again
bring forward another amnesty bill like this."

Its Your Turn South Carolina to step up and take his seat
>Its Your Turn South Carolina to step up and take his seat
Let’s hope whomever steps up does not follow in akin and mourdocks footsteps.
There should be a “rape question” litmus test by then.
I knew what that POS was up to years ago when he and McLame were yucking it up with Hitlery back in her Senate days.
She was assuring him his Senate seat was safe because she’d keep the illegals voting for him when he pissed off all of the legal South Carolinians by staying chummy with the Dems.
Wow what a shock............NOT.
YOU CAN NEVER STOP THE LEFT FROM HATING REPUBLICANS.....EVER.
SO STOP GIVING IN TO THEM. THEY ARE LIKE RABID SHARIA FOLLOWERS. YOU CAN NEVER PLAY NICE WITH EITHER GROUP.
May the fires of hell consume these traitors!
