Lindsey Graham, Bill Frist and lies.
During the Clinton impeachment, didn't Graham say it wasn't about politics, but about lies. Today his party leader was caught in two lies- his "diagnosis" of Terri Schiavo and the reasons for the voice vote on the anti-lynching bill.
Has Graham, or any repub. for that matter, talked about these blatant lies. It's not suppose to be about politics!

Ps I know all repukes give * a pass on all his lies.

1. Why, yes Mr. Graham did say that, but
those things only apply to Democrats. :eyes: What excuse did Frist give for the voice vote? I missed that one. :hi:

3. He said
That there was a voice vote because the bill's two authors asked for one. The both immediately denied this.

4. I love the irony of the FDR quote
and Im sure that it was purposeful. He is saying "Hey tou conservative fucks, not everyone is blessed with working parts or rich parents. Learn to share and halp people who need leg braces."

5.  FDR had some wonderful quotes!
It was hard to decide which ones to use in my sig line. They're all so good.

I'm sure that irony was lost on the repukes though. They're to ignorant to comprehend anything that goes beyond pre-school academics . :7

2. It's all a big game & joke with those guys. Graham has a talent
for forensic speaking,and made a fortune as a trial lawyer. The content of the discussion isn't important to him, only that he "win" the debate, be it for money or votes.
