To me the only way that we can move the country forward is toNuke DC from orbit and start from scratch.
Repeal all amendments except for the Bill of Rights,
Fire all Federal employees, no one votes except for income tax payers and veterans,
Representatives to be apportioned according to the spirit of the Constitution, no more than 200,000 constituents per Representative, increase the number of Representatives from 435 to as many as necessary.

Why do these elitist clowns think we need to "go somewhere".
Right.
Many times, we, the people, are better off with gridlock. That way, we, the people, are not getting screwed by Washington.

Because the Dems will rally their parasites and vote out anyone that votes for a reduction in spending and entitlements.
I think the majority is ready for someone to speak the truth. Voters in NJ, hardly a conservative bastion, are standing behind a Republican Governor who tells it like it is and is cutting spending dramatically.

Yeah, you’re right Graham, let’s just continue to agree and appease and compromise with these left wing idiots. Yeah, let’s try making them our friends, you and LUgar are good at that, and let’s vote for people like Kagan. Let’s take no stand....
You are the embodiment of what is wrong with Congress and gov’t in general. God, I wish there were term limits. Terms limits a-hole not independents is what will clean up your pathetic rhetoric and the do nothings in Congress with you.

Nuke DC from orbit and start from scratch.That might be a little extreme, but a good political fumigation in November (2010, 2012, etc.) might be a very good idea.

FR thread of
Rasmussen poll from August 6, 2010:
A new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of Likely Voters in South Carolina finds that 54% of Palmetto State Republicans still have a favorable opinion of Graham....
They seem to like what they have. Just like AZ.

Lindsey represents the limp-wrist wing of the republican party.

Republicans have no power in Congress including no effective power of filibuster because Lindsey Graham himself will not permit it. Yet Lindsay blames the Republicans equally with the Democrats.

I agree 100% with term limits. 4, 2 year terms for reps...and 2, 6 year terms for senators.

Graham likes independents because they tend to be disgruntled liberals. Lieberman, Crist, Powell... There was a thought that McCain might go independent at one point.

In Graham’s convoluted brain, independent means RINO.

To me the only way that we can move the country forward is to find common ground on the big ticket items. I hope that people in the country will start rewarding that more instead of punishing it.Ol' Grahamnesty's problem, like most RINOs and liberals, is that they think this lunge towards communism is "moving the country forward". He's so full of crap that his roots are brown.
This country needs to move backwards, towards the small-government, low-tax, freedom-oriented constitutional republic that it once was prior to the power-hungry morons taking hold of the steering wheel.
Lindsay Graham must go.

Perhaps Grahamnesty is getting pressure from the Republican party to leave, in which case he would likely become an independent. Although I don’t think the repubLICKan party has the sense to remove this worthless RINO from their fold. They haven’t run Olympia Snow-job and that Collins bimbo out yet, and neither one is even remotely conservative.
