Lindsay Graham: McCains "Little Jerk"

[bluevoter4life]

Source: Politico

If anyone else called him “little jerk,” Sen. Lindsey Graham might be offended.

But the jab comes from Sen. John McCain, so he wears it like a badge of honor.

“If John’s not belittling you, you’re in trouble,” Graham said. “He calls me lots of other names, too, but they’re not appropriate for the newspaper.”

McCain and Graham aren’t just friends. They’re inseparable, so much so that colleagues, staffers and journalists have begun making cracks about the relationship between the freshman senator from South Carolina and the man who would be president.

Hmmm. Methinks Graham is trying to get a top position in Grandpa's cabinet (VP possibly)? Just imagine: Pres. McCain, VP Graham, and Sec. of State Leiberman. Things just keep getting better and better :sarcasm:

1. Reminds me of "turdblossom".

Maybe McCain and bush* are closer in attitude than we thought. :scared:

8. Yes, that same sort of sick relationship.

And I have to say, with people in the submissive position who make you wonder whether romantic feelings might be involved...

[last1standing]

10. I don't care if McCain is fucking Linsey Graham.

I just don't want him to get a chance to fuck the country.

[DebbieCDC]

2. How sick is that?

Kiss the ass of the person who belittles you? Is Graham so starved for attention/affection/validation?

Oh wait, I'm talking about RW neocon...never mind.

Christ, what a pantload these people are.

3. Great, another nicknamer ...

Can't we have a president who just calls people by there names. The desire to re-christen everyone really seems to be a disturbing trait.

[Dr Fate]

4. I dont see McCain offering the VP slot to an unmarried 50 something man with a heavy lisp.

But seriously- ol Lin is as straight as they come- I mean, he's a Christian and a veteran after all.

I'm sure he is saving himself for marriage.

5. “If John’s not belittling you, you’re in trouble,”

Should make for a great foreign relationships. I will leave it to you all to try to think how McCain will insult our allies.

6. A bully and his simpering toadie.

Lindsay Graham is obviously Grover Dill, Scut Farkus' bootlicker from A Christmas Story.



Or, if you prefer this analogy:




He's Chester.

[Algorem]

7. looks like they got a kooky s&m thing goin on

[Happyhippychick]

9. I kind of get the joke if he called him "dickhead" but "little jerk"?

[DCKit]

12. You're not being nearly imaginative enough.

Though a dick by any other name....

:evilgrin:

[David Zephyr]

11. Lindsey is McCain's fluffer. They always travel overseas together.

Fluffer.

[PCIntern]

15. I thought I knew most things but

I looked this up.

wow...now there's a job...

Makes me glad to be a dentist. I can't say anyone gets too aroused in my chair!

[AlCzervik]

13. "thank you sir, may i have another?"

[PCIntern]

14. there was a mistake - the audio was cut off:

he said, "Little jerkoff".

If'n he calls his wife a c---, then this is high praise indeed!

[Bucky]

16. Unless he gets married in the next couple of months, he won't get VP

Graham is a confirmed bachelor. I can't see the GOP nominating someone that they themselves won't be able to resist the temptation to start rumors about. It's probably unjustified--he's never been the target of serious rumormilling--but Republicans almost reflexively attack men who don't marry boozehounds.
