I was watching teevee and along came Lindsay Graham, which is horrible enough .....(bwahahah)
"Something really awful happened this morning.
I was watching teevee and along came Lindsay Graham, which is horrible enough in itself if you ask me. But then Lindsay Graham began lecturing me about bipartisanship. Lecturing. Me. And you, too.
They should reduce my teevee bill if they're gonna let Lindsay Graham on there.
Before that teevee appearance, they had to take Lindsay Graham in a backroom and teach him how to say the word "bipartisanship." No, I'm serious; they did. They had a hire a speech therapist and everything because he had never said that word before today.
I mean, you've gotta have gall the size of Greenland to be Lindsay Graham today.
He actually said that the American people voted for bipartisanship. I didn't. I absolutely did not. I voted for change and to stop the gridlock in DeeCee. I do not know anybody who voted for bipartisanship. I know my neighbor who voted for Sarah Palin certainly did not vote for bipartisanship. Who voted for bipartisanship and where's their bumper sticker?
After 6 years of Newt Gingricxh and Tom DeLay, and then 8 years of George Bush, I wanted nothing to do with Republicans, not even bi.
And how come John McCain was only for bipartisanship after he lost? You think it was because he freekin' lost?
Lindsay added, "I know bipartisanship when I see it." Uh, dude, you don't even know election results when you see them."

I wish they would reduce my cable bill too when Grahamster came on. If you added Ron Christie, they would owe me money because he is so noxious...........

1. So the last 8 years wasn't the result of bipartisanship?
Bipartisanship means giving a little too. They don't understand that.

2. What is the saying about democracy being the art of compromise?
If so, then maybe the House Republicans and vast majority of Senate Republicans should be exposed as the enemies of the "American way" that they are? As several Dems have said over the weekend, it takes two to tango. If one side refuses to dance, then what purpose do they have? Maybe we should just have two Democratic Parties -- one moderate and one liberal -- and be done with it.

4. It's time to ignore the Republicans the way they ignored us.
This will get easier when the R's lose more Congressional seats in 2010 (my guess is 3 Senate seats and 18 House seats, write it down). But with the country solidly on our side, it's time to get tough. Let's do what needs doing regardless of what the media and Republican crybabies say!

11. I just read today that Cantor is "photogenic".
I guess that's a matter of taste.

8. yes, why are all these Rs on our TVs?
whine, whine, whine. That's gotta be good for the ratings. :eyes:

(I might believe Lindsay is bi, although I tend to believe he sticks to one side in all of his affairs)

9. I, too, got an unwelcome lecture from the Wee One this morning.
Local news ran a report in which Lindsay was telling me that the stimulus bill "made the American people want to throw up."

Is it just me, or are the people who program the Republicans with their daily talking points getting more and more desperate? Their lines don't have the slick, Rovian quality they once displayed. They're like playground taunts now.
