South Carolina's Lindsey Graham shows that his persona as a "reasonable conservative" is bogus, as he threatens to derail Senate climate legislation over a claim that Majority Leader Harry Reid and other Democrats want to focus more on immigration.
First, immigration is divisive, to some degree, in both parties. Reid would have no desire to move ahead on it without true bipartisanship.
Second, per Politico, is a mix of hypocrisy, BS and cluelessness.
So what if Speaker Nancy Pelosi is pushing immigration?
A. That's the House side.
B. You numnuts Graham, the House has already passed a climate bill. Months ago.
C. Just a month ago, Graham said Obama needed to push harder on immigration reform.
Survey says? Graham was, even after forcing nuclear power blank checks into a a proposed Senate bill, getting too much blowback for his liking. Survey two says Graham may be casting eyes higher than the U.S. Senate, hence his worries on such blowback.
Hey, Lindsey? A single, rumored gay GOP Senator? You ain't getting anywhere near a GOP presidential nod.
So ...
Third, sink the bill, Lindsey, please! It's bad and getting worse by the minute.
