1. I am convinced that he sold his soul to the devil.

Dumb ass YOU brought this to the country. YOU and the GOP. The democrats are miles above the republicans in common human decency. Fuck you Lindsey. And not in a friendly manner.

[Floyd R. Turbo]

8. What soul?

[MFM008]

2. THEY made it the new norm.

........

[spanone]

3. hey Lindsey, at least your boy got a hearing.

[still_one]

4. what nominees you asshole. You mean the one's you refused to allow Presidenet Obama to appoint

Go to hell Mr. Graham. You made a pack with the devil, and that is where you and your party belong

[yodermon]

5. Oh, you mean not even interviewing them or scheduling a hearing until after the election?

kinda hard to beat that

[eleny]

6. But don't stew about this, Graham. You won't be in the majority very soon.

[LisaM]

7. Oh, you mean like Merrick Garland?

The GOP new normal is not to have hearings at all.

[flyingfysh]

9. shouldn't "not being a rapist" always have been a norm?

That shouldn't be too much to ask for in nominees.

[questionseverything]

26. exactly,,,nominating folks that are not sexual abusers shouldn't be that hard

[FiveGoodMen]

44. And that's what a Dem should have asked -- on camera, with a live mic

[ProudMNDemocrat]

10. Say Orrin! You think Dr. Ford is still "mixed up"?

Are you willing to take that comment back?

Women are waiting for your answer.

[BeyondGeography]

11. Like Merrick Garland?

Lots of dirt in there, I’m sure.

[Funtatlaguy]

15. Bingo

[struggle4progress]

34. Grassley says he will not hold hearings for Merrick Garland

[roscoeroscoe]

40. Good one, there, with the way back machine

Funny how that works!

[Autumn]

12. It's all good Lindsey. Dems won't nominate rapists and other scum to important

positions in our government.

[honest.abe]

13. Already ceding the WH!

[blitzen]

14. That's rich, Lindsey! But not as rich as your puppetmasters. n/t

[nolabear]

16. He'd better not count on having a career much longer.

Other than being 45’s lap fog he no longer has a thing.

[Paladin]

17. I t5hink it's time for a full disclosure / open season on Graham. (nt)

[mahatmakanejeeves]

18. Sounds good to me. "Paging Merrick Garland; paging Merrick Garland." NT

[volstork]

19. Looks like Lindsey is trying

to swing his micropenis around.

[DBoon]

20. It already is the norm

Clinton and Obama had their nominees subjected to abusive treatment by Republican senators, including even refusing to consider highly qualified individuals at all

[Meadowoak]

21. Fuck you Lindsey Graham and the horse you rode in on. Furthermore the new norm is the one

Mcturtle set forth with Merrick Garland!

[Mr. Ected]

22. Since this is the GOP norm for candidate character

Seems it's YOUR party, Lindsey, that needs to be taught.

[WeekiWater]

23. That is a very sick manner of thought.

I don't recall this being an issue with Gorsuch. Graham, if your party continues to support sexual predators, watch out.

[thegoose]

24. What an asshole

We don't put up raping, lying drunks for Supreme Court seats, you fuckface.

[0rganism]

25. "our" nominee couldn't even get a hearing

so what's to watch out for?

these are GOP rules we're playing by now. enjoy all the winning Senator.

[C_U_L8R]

27. Truth.

Clearly, Graham is frightened of the truth (when it gets in the way of his ambitions).
Expect more whining and sulking.

But I do like his presumption that Democrats will have more nominees. Yes, we will have lots of nominees. Good nominees.

[Iggo]

28. Kavanaugh is the GOP norm.

Like I read somewhere else, he's Brock Turner all-growed-up.

[YessirAtsaFact]

29. Graham needs to come out of the closet

He would be a lot happier.

[dalton99a]

30. Lindsey Graham has found his inner soul: A dank, dark void redolent of shit.

[Javaman]

31. LOLOL

we'll be in charge for a while after what the orange asshole did to the remains of the repuke party.

[Adrahil]

32. Whaddya gonna do Lindsey?

Refuse to even have a hearing for a nominee for more almost a year?

Oh wait....

Shut up and sit down you fuckin' fuck.

[DinahMoeHum]

33. Neah neah-neah neah neah booga booga booga

n/t

[calimary]

35. So he's not just a piss-ant. He's a VINDICTIVE little piss-ant.

FUCK YOU, Lindsey. What does this say about YOU, then?

[gratuitous]

36. Did you think the Slappy Thomas standard would stand forever, Sen. Graham?

Times have changed, Senator. Get with it or get out.

[Butterflylady]

37. Can't stand the truth

Can you. Won't matter when the next democratic president nominates, he or she will have plenty of Democratic senators to pass their nomination. So go and keep talking you a**hole.

[NewJeffCT]

38. How many allegations of rape, attempted rape or assault were there

against Obama & Merrick Garland? That's right ZERO

How many allegations against Trump and Kavanaugh now? Close to 30?

[Hekate]

39. Oooo Lindsay, how would that be different from the usual GOP practice?

What the hell is wrong with you, Senator Graham?

[oasis]

41. Dem Presidents will nominate qualified women, so no problem there. nt

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

42. You should've thought of that before you decided to go after Bill

Clinton's "not mushrooms shaped" dick. You sanctimonious jagoff.

[JHB]

43. Stop nominating perjurous abusers, LG

45. Exactly

[Caliman73]

46. The expectation that Republicans will sink even lower than they already have...

should be common knowledge to Democratic politicians. If they are not there already, then perhaps they do need to step aside and allow those whose eyes are wide open to take a shot at leadership.

The Republicans have very little, to no morals left. They have already displayed a contempt for the rules, norms, and even the law. Graham wants people to think that Republicans are reacting to something new from Democrats. The reality is that Republicans cheat, and they will continue to cheat, and when caught they will protest and try to blame Democrats for catching them cheating.
