Miz Lindsey
Y’all, Lindsey Graham “suspended” his presidential quest to pursue his true love, a Youtube channel with advice for the lovelorn.

We will miss him from the children’s debate table, which will now consist of Mike Huckabee and Rick Santorum. That means that in the future the second tier debates will consist of two guys hitting each other over the head with Bibles. And bad ties. Really bad ties.
Since days only two ubum maybe the snacilbupeR will allow Hucky bee and Santorum join the big people’s table. Prolly not…
1So he thinks our biggest problems are retiring our debt, immigration, and winning the war against terrorism. He is completely out of touch with both ordinary people and with reality.
Retiring our debt (much of which comes from Repub wars) is for most people secondary to getting their own financial lives in order–an issue Repubs don’t care about at all.
Our immigration problem (and yes, he means brown people) is mostly that we are going to have trouble finding enough of them to do the jobs in service and agriculture that are open. More immigrants are leaving the U.S. for Mexico than are coming here.
Winning the war on terrorism is not a thing. Terrorism is not a country. It is a tactic. Currently the worst terrorists are probably ISIS, a group created by past Repub policies. And the hatred for Muslim being spewed by the WingNuts is not helping.
The sad thing is that the Repub candidates remaining are worse than Graham on the issues.
2Could never understand why he got in the race in the first place. He knew he had zip chance of anything. Oh, well. Bye, bye, Miz Lindsey!
3Lynn, there you go again with facts and logic and stuff—to which the snacilbupeR candidates are completely impervious. You’re right, though–Miz Lindsey was the closest to sane of the bunch.
4One down and one to go, Senator Graham. When will you be announcing your retirement from the Senate?
5I will miss the only GOP candidate who had any clue about climate change. By the way, on Christmas Eve here in Maryland we’re expecting 73° and maybe a thunderstorm.
6Lindsey’s big shortcomings lie in just not being enough:
Not crazy enough for the Teapers
Not sane enough for the moderates
Not straight enough for the thumpers
Not gay enough for the libertarians
Not military enough for the totalitarians
Not America Firster enough for the isolationists
Too weak to be a maverick
Too dumb to be a Democrat
Too little the malefactor for hell
Too much the accessory for heaven
Lindsey Graham: Suspended in Limbo.
7I missed him having music in the background for his sing-song voice as he read the teleprompter.
8Fear not, folks … we’ll still have him around to make fun of!!
9Compared to his competitors, Ol’ Lindsey never was a mean dude. He just needs to give up politics, find a nice fella, settle down and enjoy retirement.
10Now that Graham has “seen the light”, what’s keeping the bottom dwellers from acknowledging reality? Santorum, Huckaby, Paul, Bush, Fiorina et al, wake up and smell the polls.
11Horsey’s cartoon of the rabid pack, with Graham in front having the vapors:

12Some notable quotes:
On Donald Trump: “What I heard last night, it’s the Cartoon Network: ‘Ooh, I’m big, I’m strong! I’m gonna hit ’em in the head!’ That’s not foreign policy, that’s a cartoon character.”
On sequestration: “Sequestration is Latin for ‘doing really dumb things.'”
On climate change: “I’m not a scientist, and I’ve got the grades to prove it.”
On Bernie Sanders: “Bernie Sanders went to the Soviet Union on his honeymoon and he never came back.”
On his competition: “On our side, you’ve got the No. 2 guy [saying he] tried to kill someone at 14 and the No. 1 is high energy and crazy as hell. How am I losing to these people?”

13Well… I can’t say I’ll ‘miz’ him. Bye, Lindsey.
