I wish he hadn’t said it but it’s probably true.

Why is Graham even in the Republican Party? He is such a crypto-Democrat.

I think South Carolina needs to ditch Lindsay Graham.

South Carolina folks love Linsey. They just reelected him AGAIN in November. He is here until January 2015. He probably could care less what people think about him right now. South Carolina will vote for him again in November 2014 for anther six years beginning January 2015. Lindsey has been a complete disappointment for so long and it does not make a difference to his voters.

"Unless you have a complete meltdown, you will be confirmed"

So there is hope?

Can’t disagree with anything you posted.

Which leads to the perhaps uncomfortable question...is the right half of the political spectrum undergoing a schism like those that have occurred with other parties (not necessarily conservatives)? And if the schism does occur who or what is left behind? And if the schism does occur, change being a healthy and natural thing, does that give the left time and opportunity to solidify their power?

Too true! SC needs to send Grahamnesty packing and get in a conservative senator.

What a huge disappointment he’s been!

Interesting observation.

What did tick me off was when he said that Obama won and he respects that. Isn’t that nice? He’s still supposed to represent the sizable % that didn’t vote for zero and in fact, judging by poll numbers zero might have a lot of trouble winning today. We lost but we’re not supposed to play dead, the rats sure didn’t when they were down.

Some like to make the issue about other posters instead of the topic of the thread. You've encountered one.

Note its other posts in this thread.

Cluelessness oozing from your post doesn’t do much for your image, clone. The single utterance posted was in fact an absolute fact. How did anything you have posted so far address that fact? Yeah, spittle on fool, I’m outta here. You radical agitprops now run FR during the day anyway, and the thread was nothing more than yet another forum in which to veer off course from conservatism and spittle hate of a rino Senator. You agitprops are becoming quite transparent, though it no longer seems to matter at FreeRepublic ... witness the ease with which Chris Parry herded the mindless drones newly signed on at FR.

“I hate my government today.”

With its current makeup, I hate it every day.

This guy needs to go. Why would the good people of South Carolina put with this guy? If he votes, yea, for her, he should be recalled by the people of South Carolina.

Remember this utterance, South Carolinians, when the little closeted fag is up for re-election.

These hearings are meaningless photo-ops for political grandstanding. Nominees should be quietly reviewed based upon their body of work.

Wouldn't it be nice if all the Republicans simply stated that they "advise" the President that they withhold their "consent" on this nominee and need to get back to work reading bills - and then actually went back to work reading bills.

Sigh...then I woke up.

Thank you. That poster is the worst of what Free Republic has to offer; an avid supporter of RINOs while attacking conservatives.

I wouldn't go that far, not at all. MHGinTN is pretty cool and solidly conservative, in my experience. I think one or both of ya have had bad blood in another thread and y'all brought it here, OR one or both of ya just had a bad moment.

Both of you seem to be disliking Graham, AND Sotomayer, so cool.

Political Nominee for Supreme Court: Sonia Sotomayor (using phone activism to block)

... The nomination of Judge Sotomayor is far from being a done deal. ... And if every senator got 10 or 15,000 calls on this saying "judges shouldn't make law and she rules to the contrary." I don't know that she would get through. But they're expecting a hundred calls, or two hundred calls. But if 10 or 15,000 people would call that would change everything.

Look around you, jackass. This thread is filled with anti-Graham posts similar to mine and you're the only one defending him.
