Sen. Graham Finally Gets It Right: Thuggery of “Seedy Chicago Politics” Runs White House, Outrageous Bribes to Pass ObamaCare (video)
Posted By Vicki McClure Davidson on December 21, 2009
So many times this past year I’ve been dismayed or flabbergasted by Sen. Lindsey Graham’s Democrat-lite, non-conservative stance on issues.
However, Graham has finally gotten it right… the infamous dirty politics and thuggery of Chicago has muscled its way into our White House (although this is no shock to most conservatives who have been paying close attention since January 20, and have stopped listening to the “Hail, Obama” crapolla chorus coming from the fringe media).
That soulless seediness, with audacious, juicy bribes (which taxpayers are paying for), has helped swing a handful of turncoat senators (yes, I’m talking especially about you, Sen. Ben Nelson from Nebraska, and you, Sen. Mary Landrieu from Louisiana, you GOP sell-out hypocrites) to vote for government-dictated, trillion-dollar-debt-to-come ObamaCare.
Prostitution is looking like a pretty damned noble line of work next to these double-talking, greed-inspired miscreants.
2010 is closing in, you RINOS and Socialist-Democrats… we’re voting you despicable weasels out.
Sen. Graham: Obama’s ‘Seedy Chicago Politics’ Has Replaced His Slogan of ‘Change You Can Believe In’ | December 2009
From The PoliJAM Times Blog, Sen. Graham: Obama’s ‘Seedy Chicago Politics’ Has Replaced His Slogan of ‘Change You Can Believe In’:
After the “health care bill debacle,” the “change you can believe in” slogan that President Obama campaigned on in 2008 seems to have “been replaced by seedy Chicago politics” with “backroom deals that amount to bribes,” charged Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) on CNN’s State of the Union on Sunday.
“Bribes — that’s a strong word,” responded host John King.
“Well, it is, oh, absolutely, it’s a strong word,” said Graham.
“It was meant to be strong; principled compromised — I mean, a compromise sold as a principled solution to an emotional problem like abortion that’s fallen flat; Enron accounting techniques — everything that people were upset with about Washington has gotten worse. And this bill personifies the worst of Washington.”
From Gateway Pundit:
Senator Graham nailed it this time.
“After the “health care bill debacle,” the “change you can believe in” slogan that President Obama campaigned on in 2008 seems to have been replaced by “seedy Chicago politics” with “backroom deals that amount to bribes.”… Enron accounting techniques — everything that people were upset with about Washington has gotten worse. This bill personifies the worst in Washington.”
The constitutionality of this horrible farce of a health care bill will likely be challenged… I’m guessing a lot of folks are waiting until the Senate Christmas Eve vote before taking strong action. Perhaps some senators will be convinced by the people who elected them that voting for this Frankenstein’s monster of a health bill will be bad for the country and bad for their political careers.
Although, to hear Dingy Harry Reid tell it, Democrats are positively giddy to destroy America’s economy, micro-manage Americans’ lives, and sacrifice their careers for this incoherent nightmare of a health care bill.
We’ll see just how steadfast and loyal they are to Dear Leader and ObamaCare/ReidCare/PelosiCare this week, and how willing they are to ignore the majority of people in this country. I’m thinking a number of them have quivering spines of Jell-O… and no scruples to stick to a course of action if it will negatively impact their cushy political jobs.
To paraphrase “Mr. Chicago” himself, President Barack “Not Such a Nice Guy After All” Obama, don’t think for one minute that America “is not keeping score, brother.”
