4. He's trying to provoke anger so he can label her angry.
Had an ex who pulled that crap. Like the ex, Lindsey is a coward and a pathetic one at that.

5. Bingo.
And the general public isn't supposed to be smart enough to do the math.

and Ensign's; where have those thumbs been????

8. As we say here in the South -
and Lindsey will certainly resonate to this one, as he sits there with his black lace garter belt and fishnet stockings under his nice suit, "He needs to have his tits slapped together."

11. That is a pretty good saying!
There is really nothing positive I can say about this politician. He lacks any substance so far as I've ever seen. He sways with the wind and his arguments are total political hackery.

But I do respect you folks down South that have to put up with these butt heads as your reps. Hope the day comes soon when you can clean the closet.

12. Frotunately, I'm here in
Mr. Jefferson's Commonwealth, so I'm not all the way down there with the 2-digit IQ politicians. We've got TWO DEMOCRATIC SENATORS, a DEMOCRATIC GOVERNOR, and we went for Obama in November.

Virginia is making Mr. Jefferson proud, I do believe .................

13. He speaks to her like a petulant puppy, prissy parent, and punitive preacher.
Edited on Wed Jul-15-09 12:03 AM by peacetalksforall
I believe he has no children so it's easy to look backwards to the types of messages his parents sent him. If he gets another round with her - I know he is going to bring out his ruler. I wonder if he shows that prissiness to his Senate staff.

He is showing off for someone - is it the bigots?

What a revolting person he is.

15. 'friends come and go but enemies accumulate'

After as many years as she has been a judge, negative comments are not surprising. What surprises me is how desperate they are to find ANYthing to harp on because there is literally nothing else. Frankly, I want a touch judge who cuts through any lawyer's nonsense and if that makes some folks angry, let 'em be angry. I want the pit bull on my side of the leash, not theirs.

Lindseys' comment 'it's tough enough being a lawyer..." is plainly whining. I thought the GOP wasn't into whining. Hmmmm. He must be the exception.

19. "Survey says..."
Anonymous survey results bring up some questions in my mind. Was the survey he sited taken before or after her nomination? Certainly those bashing her could have been cherry picked if not completely fabricated. He also acted as if there were only negative results.

20. Comments without sources
aren't worth the time it takes to spout them, kind of like Fox News starting a story with the qualifier "some people are saying."
Hey Lindsey, some people are saying you're a bone smuggling sword swallower and self loathing homosexual. Now I don't care what you're sticking you know where when the sun goes down, but you appeal to the knuckle dragging nimrods who hate the real Lindsey Graham.
And for your edification: one of your dates, a male reporter, was giving me the Sarah Palin wink when you weren't looking.

24. Yes, it would be interesting to know what side of the aisle and
party affiliation those lawyers are who accuse Sotomayor of "bullying". Dirty politics as usual. Trust Graham to dig deep for dirt like the little shithead is capable of doing.

23. Interesting read. I imagine Sotomayor has Rep. enemies and

no doubt those lawyers who discuss her "temperment" have Republican axes to grind.
