Lindsey Graham

Matt Hildreth works for America's Voice and his tweet (above) about the GOP immigration dilemma went right to the point: are they the Party of Abe Lincoln, the Great Emancipator or the Party of Jeff Sessions, a KKK sympathizer. Yesterday, Ted Cruz (R-TX) warned House Republicans not to support the Republican leadership's plan for comprehensive immigration reform.

Yesterday's Politico featured a post by Manu Raju explaining how both Democratic and Republican candidates are running against the NSA's Cheney-conceived domestic spying agenda-- the NSA's Cheney-conceived domestic spying agenda that Obama has largely kept intact.

Let’s Break a Deal


First it was MSNBC’s Chris Hayes who Rips AIPAC & Those 16 Iran War Democrats, now Jon Daily Nails AIPAC driven Congress for  imperiling the prospect of peace with Iran because of immaturity and a lack of self-control.

Sunday's NY Times posed an impossible question: How Man American Men Are Gay? First of all, what does that even mean? I've been straight, bisexual, gay and celibate. So how do you count me? (Until reading the Times story I had never been on any gay internet sites either. Porno never did much for me.

Polling shows that most Americans are backing Obama's deal with Iran-- and by a wide margin.

Press TV – November 11, 2013

US Senator Lindsey Graham has warned about a possible easing of economic sanctions against Iran, saying Israel is “apoplectic” about the Obama administration’s approach.
Graham, a hawkish Republican from South Carolina who has repeatedly called for military strikes on Iran, said Sunday that lifting sanctions would send the wrong message to Israel and other US allies in the region.

Lindsey Graham may be a sad and wretched closet case, but the progressive Democrat running against him, Jay Stamper, wants to make sure all members of the LGBT community are entitled to equal protection under the law-- including the right to marry.

I wonder if the polling was done before or after the above Daily Show, but in either case, Lindsey Graham's reelection prospects look difficult... at best. Over a third of South Carolina Republicans have a negative opinion of their senior senator. So a third... the crackpot nihilists and tea baggers. That leaves two-thirds who could vote for him, right?

Jay Stamper is the Democratic candidate for Senate in South Carolina and he's running against Lindsey Graham-- or whoever the Tea Party replaces Graham with in an increasingly bitter and contentious Republican primary.

Those blue counties all went for Obama last yearLindsey's dream job probably would have been Secretary of State for President John McCain. But, no, that was never to be. And now he has to spend his time upcountry, groveling to a bunch of racist teabaggers and morons in Greenville and in remote redneck bastions of Hate Talk Radio conventional wisdom like backward Oconee, Pickens and Cherokee counties.
