Under the Bill
26 June 2007If I hear the phrase “under the bill” one more time regarding “comprehensive immigration reform” I think I will throw up. I was listening to Chertoff on Cavuto this afternoon and every time Cavuto brought up conservative objections, Chertoff’s response was “under the bill…” I’m convinced they are being intentionally obtuse. We’ve repeated over and [...]
Immigration Reform
13 June 2007What is the deal with immigration reform? If you have followed the debate and the actions in the Senate you may have wondered what is going on. Democrats clearly want immigration reform, yet Harry Reid pulled it from consideration after two unsuccessful attempts at cloture. He could have kept the debate going at least until [...]
For President Bush, Loyalty is a One Way Street
5 June 2007If there is one thing President Bush has placed a premium on it is loyalty. He expects those in his administration to be loyal to him. And he has expected the rank and file of the Republican Party to be loyal to him. The problem is, he doesn’t see the need to return that loyalty. [...]
Defeat Lindsey Graham Blog
25 May 2007All the focus these days if the ’08 presidential election. But let’s not forget that there are a lot of other politicians who will be up for reelection in November ’08 as well. One of those will be South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham. Regular readers know I am dedicated to seeing Graham defeated in ’08. [...]
Bipartisan BS
22 May 2007I can’t begin to describe my emotions upon hearing the collective stream of BS coming from the Senate Floor. Senator after Senator took the floor to describe their wonderful immigrant ancestors. The message was clear. All of us who oppose the rising tide of illegal immigrants remaining here legally are actually opposed to ALL immigration. [...]
Amnesty by Any Other Name Still Screws America
18 May 2007President Bush, along with RINOs Lindsey Graham and John McCain and Democrat Ted Kennedy, have reached a “compromise” for comprehensive immigration reform. That phrase, “comprehensive immigration reform” is code for amnesty. President Bush announced that the plan does not grant amnesty but any bill that allows aliens currently in this country illegally to pay a [...]
Border Security Supported by Bigots
10 May 2007It’s been a while since I posted about Lindsey Graham, though you may notice the Lindsey Graham Watch link above. Long time readers know that I am no fan of Senator Graham. I worked for his election and I have been disappointed over and over ever since. Now there’s another idiotic statement coming from this [...]
Lindsey Graham Supports John McCain
19 March 2007Regular readers of this blog know that I am committed to the defeat of Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina. After working for his election in 2000, I have been repeatedly disappointed in Graham. He campaigned as a conservative but he has shown himself to be anything but. I’ve come to believe that he has [...]
Conservative John McCain?
3 March 2007It’s been a little while since I wrote a purely political post and now it is time. I received an email today from Bobby Harrell, Speaker of the House in the South Carolina Legislature. He was enthusiastic over John McCain’s win in the Spartanburg straw poll on Thursday. It seems that as of Thursday even [...]
Lindsey Graham is Toast in 2008
14 September 2006I live in South Carolina and four years ago I was an active campaigner for Lindsey Graham. I made phone calls, walked precincts, went to campaign events, put out campaign signs and generally spent my spare time working to elect Lindsey Graham. There are few things in my life that I regret more. Lindsey Graham [...]
