The Progressive Pachyderm



Today Mr. Obama's second Supreme Court Nominee was confirmed to a lifetime appointment to the highest court in the land. A progressive and a liberal, Ms. Kagan will predictably judge left, to far left while all but ignoring the Constitution. It is certainly the president's perogative to nominate whomever he sees fit. Or unfit in this case. However, it is those who cast their votes to approve or deny the nomination that may be the bigger part of the problem. Enter, Lindsey Graham.



Now I expect progressive liberals to vote... well, liberally. Anything to advance their agenda. They can couch or spin any way they choose, but in the end they are going to vote for anything that advances their Socialist agenda. I get that. But, it is the limp-wristed RINO's like Lindsey Graham that truly irk me. And in the past, Arlen Spector. I'm sure that Senator Graham was quite taken with the nominee's masculine persona that he could only dream of one day possessing himself. All the while believing that his constituents aren't intelligent or nuanced enough to understand his reasoning for voting to confirm Kagan. Commonly referred to by me as "John Mccain's B*tch" (no offense to the female gender), this man is a latent lackey of liberalism. I wish that he, like Arlen Spector, would come out of the closet and freely profess his progressive proclivities and go to the other side of the aisle.

There were a few other RINO's (Collins and Snow of Maine) who predictably voted for Kagan also. They irk me too, but not near as much as Graham. I guess, worse than a man who sounds like a chick, is a Republican who votes like a liberal Democrat. It doesn't help that Lindsey Graham is both. Let this be his last term as a Republican and may he go the way of that trailblazing RINO, Arlen Spector in the next election cycle.
