Graham = Establishment = Globalist
Just watch...they are going to “bargain” for a “consensus” which means Obama wins.
Graham is signaling the auction to begin. He has something to sell!
Welcome to Justice Eric Holder.
Haven’t they all been consensus picks by the very definition of advise and consent?
In todays environment people forget that not passing laws and not approving budgets and not confirming nominees is also legislating and is the only way to stop a Tyrant.
Congress isn’t a rubber stamp. It’s give and take and when one party keeps taking and never giving ... its over.
Reid be damned, hold up on Obama’s SCOTUS pick until the next President.
February 2, 2015
Graham described liberal Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan as “very qualified candidates to be picked by a Democratic president,” and although he voted to confirm them, he said he would not have chosen them.
Graham is Exhibit 1 as to why the Senate will never have 40 senators strong enough to prevent cloture and block an Obama nominee to the bench.
He is also Exhibit 1 as to why 2016 is the Year of the Insurgent.
Rob Portman has an opportunity to win back my vote here by voting to block cloture.
Someone hit him in the mouth. Please!
Did anyone seeing him laughing maniacally and clapping like crazy for Bush at last night’s debate? What a little girl.
Would the good people of SC please primary this buffoon?
Please?
To compromise with the Devil is sin.
Linda is an establish fool.
It’s already begun! The rationalizations. The excuses. The outright capitulation!
Nevermind that there is plenty of history to tell us that lame duck presidents should NOT be able to pick SC justices! It’s already, again, business as usual for the GOPe.
We need to stop this! We need to remind these cowards of the recent and ongoing REBELLION amongst their own ranks. We need to remind them that their cushy jobs, fat benefits, and the like are in jeopardy now more than ever. With Trump, Cruz, and Carson, there is well over 65% of support for non-traditional, NON-GOPe candidates. That’s a rebellion folks and we need to remind them of this fact.
They can not be allowed to capitulate on this. They need to fight on this. We need to fight them on this. Be prepared come Tuesday to fight. To light up the phones and inboxes of your Senators! Don’t let this happen! Obama can’t be allowed to have his nominee confirmed. Or else the election itself is meaningless. It will be meaningless, if the SC is tilted to the left, which is Obama’s goal.
The boys in the Senate need to get over their “He’s the president, he should have whoever he wants.” bull****. That’s not how America is supposed to work. Americans should have whoever THEY want. It’s time to stop the freak show that the Supreme Court has become.
Sen Graham will harrumph in front of the cameras and then vote yes to any nominee, regardless.
Obama isn’t interested in “consensus”. He will pick a hardcore leftist. Graham will rationalize that choice as “consensus”. Another 15 GOP senators will agree and the nominee will be confirmed.
This will elect Trump.
Every time Linda Graham speaks, makes me want to go out into the garage and chew a handful of roofing nails.
Good grief...consensus? South Carolinans...please stop voting for this guy. For the sake of our republic...stop voting for him.
Did you SEE that interview with Miss Lindsey last night? He started ticking of all the SCOTUS Justices that he’d voted for: Sotomayor, Kagan, etc. And he was PROUD of it! The man — and I use that term loosely — has mush for brains.
Good God Graham. Retire and go away!!!
