When I look upon that cesspool known as Washington D.C., it reminds me of middle school. You have the popular kids, who get all the attention, and then you have others who want to be in that clique. The best vehicle for those forlorn nerds to gain attention is to have their faces plastered all over the school newspaper.
Establishment republicans have that “I wannabe
popular” complex. They want acceptance from the Washington D.C. socialites so bad, they’ll sell out their constituents
in a heartbeat just to be invited to the ugly dog party.
Senator Lindsey Graham is one of those ugly
dogs. He slavishly courts the D.C.
clique by selling their talking points.
One of those is threatening conservatives with the usual, “we will lose
the presidency” if we don’t pander to millions of illegal aliens who’ve
violated our laws and sovereignty.
"If we don't at
least make a down payment on solving the problem and rationally dealing with
the 11 million [people in the country illegally], if we become the party of
self-deportation in 2015 and 2016, then the chance of winning the White House I
think is almost nonexistent," Graham said on CNN's "State of the
Union" in an interview posted Sunday.
Graham also
called for a measure to help the "Dreamers," who are people brought
to the U.S. illegally as children. President Obama took executive action in
2012 to grant such people legal status, and then expanded his actions after the
midterm elections to include more people.
"If
the Republican Party cannot muster the political courage to deal with the Dream
Act children in a fair and balanced way after we secure our border, that says a
lot about the Republican Party's future regarding the Hispanic community,"
Graham said. "I don't believe most Americans would fault the Republican
Party if we allowed children who have been here since they're babies to
assimilate into society with a pathway to citizenship after we secure our
borders."
Senator Lindsey Graham has no regard for
American citizenship, his constituents, or the state of South Carolina. He has demonstrated time after time that he
will sell them out just for a chance to be invited to the ugly dog party.
What really takes political courage and
fortitude is to take on the D.C. establishment like a Senator Ted Cruz. Instead, Senator Lindsey Graham rehashes a redux
of Simpson-Mazzoli, a proven policy failure.
Don’t lecture us on political courage,
Senator Lindsey Graham. Go back to your
D.C. doghouse and chew on the scraps your masters have thrown near your dish.
