Sorry Lindsay Graham, but John Bolton is not going to be the Secretary of Anything anytime soon

[ZRT2209]

so if your plan is to keep attacking every Obama nominee until Bolton is nominated, you can come back to Earth at your convenience because it's not happening.

[Lifelong Protester]

1. we have to 'mute' the set anytime he is on

just like with W.

[PoliticAverse]

2. I think of him as Secretary of Delusions of Grandeur. n/t

[liberal N proud]

3. Grahams hate is consuming him.

[TDale313]

8. He's terrified of being primaried.

Trying to establish some wing nut street creds to play to the base. At least, that's my take.

[11 Bravo]

13. Exactly!

[ZRT2209]

10. he is especially cranky lately

[Flashmann]

17. he is especially cranky lately

Menopause?

[RomneyLies]

4. You can tell Graham is terrified of a primary opponent.

And 10 to 1 says his posturing still doesn't work, he's primaried, and an even more vile Goober goes to the Senate from SC.

[Gman]

5. That's the REAL issue here

Not to mention the persistent rumors that he is gay. He has a lot of trouble on his hands and he's got to act nuts, ... which shouldn't be real hard to do.

[Jennicut]

12. It's obvious.

Graham is usually bad but not THIS bad.

[blueclown]

23. Exactly.

Graham is usually one of the more reasonable Pukes. The fact that he is acting this crazy now is because he fears a primary challenge from the right. This is pure politics at play.

[truebluegreen]

16. I have to hope

that someday the even more vile Gooper candidate is too vile to be elected.

I mean, we have to reach that point someday, don't we? Don't we?

[pscot]

6. Little Lindsay should just sit down and STFU

[NYC_SKP]

7. ` ` ` ` Can we make him Secretary of Al Roker's Derrier???

9. good nomination

Bolton is the ugliest wife swapper known to man.

[A Simple Game]

18. I have to believe it was his wife that wanted to do the swapping, but they kept returning him. n/t

[riverbendviewgal]

20. He tricked her and tried to get her to do swapping at

one of those NYC wife swapping clubs..She did not go along with him and they divorced

[A Simple Game]

22. I remember that, but I like my explanation better. n/t

[bongbong]

27. At least his perversion wasn't the usual repig perversion

Bolton has that going for him at least.

(BTW, the most common repig perversion/hobby is pedophilia)

11. Lindsay Graham thinks if he can out-crazy everyone, that maybe they wuill accept him.

[Hippo_Tron]

14. John Bolton was horrendously unqualified to serve in a diplomatic position

It's fucking ridiculous to appoint someone UN Ambassador who is on record stating that they think the UN shouldn't exist.

The guy was confirmed by the Senate for his Under Secretary of Defense job. If Chimp had nominated him for Deputy Secretary of Defense I'd have supported it. Hell even if he'd nominated him for Defense Secretary, I'd be inclined to say that's his prerogative, although I'd say that it would be highly ill-advised given how poorly the Iraq War had been going under the hard-liners.

But trying to appoint the guy to a diplomatic post is truly a horrible idea and that's where the Senate's role of advice and consent comes in.

[NPolitics1979]

15. Paul Thurmond for US Senate.

Paul Thurmond should challenge Lindsey Graham in the Republican primary to win back his fathers old US Senate seat.
SC will have diverse representation in the US Senate.

[Raine1967]

19. Say what?

Oh dear lord. You can't be serious.

[NPolitics1979]

24. I want see Lindsey Graham gone and Tim Scott unhappy.

[JHB]

21. Bolton would make a fine Secretary of Rootin, Tootin, and Hornswoggling*

*Proper pronunciation of the title involves a performance component: firing a pair of pistols wildly in the air. The shouting of "Yeeee-Haaaaa!!!" is traditional, but not a formal part of the title.

[Cha]

25. Too bad the US Corporate Media Keeps Pumping the Idiot UP.

[Purveyor]

26. He and/or one of his minions will use a Senate 'hold' on the nominations unless Reid changes the

filibuster rules.

Bank on it and mark this thread!

[Gothmog]

28. Lindsay is so scared of a tea party primary challenge that it is sad

A significant amount of these statements are merely attempts by Lindsay to try to head off a tea party primary challenge

[Rosa Luxemburg]

29. Put John Bolton on a remote island and let him stay there

he must not be allowed to go to any official whatsoever
