Lindsey Graham coming to terms with Maxine Waters

Lindsey should've exited the closet and publicly acknowledged his inner Maxine a long time ago.

Graham is weak enough to go along with that but I think it is a scare tactic mostly. Bankers will want to protect their giant bonuses.

This is what Sweden did during the 90’s and what Nouriel of the Stein Business School of NYU is suggesting is needed.

It will be a reset button for the financial system and get credit going again and be possibly less painful then letting the banks fail and the FDIC coming in to insure people’s deposits.

Of course the major problem is that is a massive expansion of government that the democrats will use to shovel more pork and patronage down the throats of the American people.

If this were to be implemented there needs to be a check on this massive expansion of Federal power, probably a national referendum to end government control at the next election.

Sixty years backward isn't that far. It's the trip back that is a killer.

Most cool. I noticed that the F-104 pilot had to maneuver the inflight refueling probe into the drogue. Do any current USAF tactical a/c refuel this way?

Graham is McCain’s butt-boy. He’ll go along with anything to get on Sunday Talk TV.

What a joke.

Isn’t there anybody good in SC to run against this creep?

I actually think Graham is a good man; but he is certainly weak as hell.

There needs to be, but do you honestly believe there ever will be?

Nope. It will make things worse as the democrats will demand “socially responsible” lending. It will create another house of cards.

In answer to your question, I believe all USAF fixed-wing aircraft refuel via the “boom”.

I’d bet the farm there are photos somewhere of Lindsey Graham and a teen aged boy that are real.
