Just because someone tries to destroy you, does not mean you are destroyed.

It will make it harder for him to Run for President. All the banter about him makes people uneasy.

And how was I supposed to know that? My post was the original one that discussed the left's attempts to destroy Newt.

Why would I assume you were talking to a much more generic post later?

And since it appears you are wrong, by your standard you are a liar!

**** off, liar.

And by again calling me a liar when I have proven that I didnt you have again lied!

Your rhetoric is so inflamatory and hateful I cannot imagine how you exist in America on a day to day basis.

Another reason why all of the incumbents need to be booted out of office.

Graham vows to bring Senate to standstill over $40K for project

By Alexander Bolton - 04/13/11 12:05 PM ET

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) has vowed to bring the Senate to a standstill unless congressional leaders agree to allocate $40,000 for a federal study on deepening the Port of Charleston.
 
Graham says one out of five jobs in South Carolina stem from trade through Charleston’s busy port, and he warns the entire state economy will suffer unless the port is overhauled.
 

The senator suffered a setback last week when Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) and Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) did not include the funding in the 2011 budget deal.

Graham said he will not block the budget agreement to keep the government funded through the end of September but that he will hold up all other business until the matter is resolved. He said he would not delay the stopgap spending measure because it includes funding for troops in Afghanistan and Iraq.

But his stand could delay the confirmation of nominees and completion of small-business legislation that has languished on the Senate floor for weeks. An aide to Graham stressed the $40,000 request is not an earmark.

"The language that the senator wants to have in the CR gives the Army Corps [of Engineers] money to go forward with projects currently in progress. This will allow the Corps to tap into that money for our study," said the aide in reference to the continuing resolution to keep the government funded for six months.
 
Vice President Joe Biden called Graham on Tuesday to negotiate a possible deal.
 
“I’m getting people’s attention, I hate to do it this way but it’s the only way — the administration, the vice president called yesterday. He’s wanting to help me. It’s not too big of an ask. We’re talking about a $40,000 need in Charleston to make sure the port doesn’t fall a year behind,” Graham said.
 
Graham’s stand plays into the Democratic argument that infrastructure spending creates jobs.
 
“I would say that putting the money into infrastructure that creates jobs is a good thing to do with taxpayer dollars,” he said. “No one has ever suggested that deepening the Port of Charleston would not be an economic benefit to the region and the nation as a whole.
 
“If you do want to double exports, which is a good idea, you’ve got to have the infrastructure that meets the times we live in,” he said.
 
Graham argues that super-sized cargo ships will dominate the shipping industry in the near future and that ports along the east coast will have to deepen their channels to accommodate the deep-draft vessels.

But he is one of yours
4/13/2011 4:21 PM
He is not one of mine.  Thanks anyway.
4/13/2011 4:49 PM
Dude! He was one of the founders of the bagger movement!
4/13/2011 5:46 PM
Are they union baggers like at Stop & Shop?
4/13/2011 5:51 PM
Maybe he is a guy who is trying to hijack the movement, but he is not one of us.
4/13/2011 5:52 PM
At some point you're going to have to come to terms with the fact that some of the people who are trying to "hijack" the movement were funding it before you started preaching its' virtues.
4/13/2011 7:41 PM
The traditional Republicans in the movement have not come full swing yet.

We will handle our side. You can handle yours.
