Finally, Lindsey Graham has posted a statement regarding his support of the Shamnesty bill.
An interesting statement. Not quite as defensive as Mel Martinez's was. Compared to statements made by the Senator before and during the vote, this is quite mild.
Nonetheless, I'm interested in hearing what fellow Freepers have to say about one of least favorite GOP senators.
Comments or opinions - anyone?

President Bush and I made it clear we would not compromise on our guiding principle that securing our nations borders must be our first priority." Bullsh/t! If it were a top priority then it already would've been achieved. ....immediately after 9/11, preferably.

>>Several months ago, I met with President Bush at the White House to discuss our out-of-control problems with illegal immigration. He asked me if I would help him push immigration reform through Congress and I gave him my word I would.<<
Is it just me or is Lindsey blaming Bush? “It’s Bush’s fault!”

No one who enters this country illegally must ever be granted legal residency, let alone any form of citizenship. Violate that principle at your political peril.

A lot of hot air. Seriously enforce the laws already in place and build the fence.
And the best way to attract the "best and brightest" from around the world is to maintain a society where the law is respected and lawbreaking is not facilitated and rewarded.

I worry that local and state governments will begin to act more aggressively and create a hodge-podge of laws." Translation: He's worried that much of the welfare-addicted slave labor will get the boot and that the GOP's big biz donors will be po'd.

Which is what a lot of people say is really pushing people like Kyl to flip - flop - the fear of actual enforcement.
Lindsay isn’t too smart. This is a sentence he should not have mentioned. Or if he had to, he should have knocked it down...but what can he say? Local LEOs are yahoos? They will be cruel to “immigrants.”
Clearly this was a slip on Lindsay’s part, a inner look at his real feelings — no to enforcement.

I have never donated to an out of state politician but if the good people of SC can field a viable primary opponent I will make an exception. The only thing gramnesty it fit to serve as is poster boy for “Don’t Let This Happen to You”.
