Miss Lindsey Graham Can Kiss My Big Blue Butt
After Elizabeth Warren delivered one of the finest speeches on the senate floor since … well, maybe forever … Lindsey Graham took the floor and oh dear God in heaven above he actually said words that burned a hole in my head.
“You’re tired, you’re frustrated, you’re upset about a provision in the bill you don’t like,” he added of Warren.
Yeah, his response was, “You’re a girl.”
I was very glad that I do not have smell-o-vision teevee because that stank like a pouch of week old crawfish tied to a billy goat. And Lindsey better be glad I don’t have real-o-vision teevee because I would have slapped his face.
You’re tired and upset? Oh yeah, that’s the only reason we women fight for anything – we’re tired and upset. The only thing he forgot is that it must be that time of the month.
Oh, but he wasn’t finished.
“If you follow the lead of the senator of Massachusetts and bring this bill down … people are not going to believe you are mature enough to run the place,” Graham said on the Senate floor. “Don’t follow her lead. She’s the problem.”
Oh yeah, we believe people who give our government to big banks are mature enough to run the joint.
Somebody get that boy a fainting couch because I do believe he’s worked himself into a tither. “She’s the problem,” is certainly one of his more mature statements. He had no justification for giving away the government except that Elizabeth Warren is tired.
Yeah, Bub, and so am I.
Thanks to John for the very cool graphic.
Citigroup lobbyist: “Senator Graham, the magnitude of our executives’ contributions to your campaigns has resulted in a very intimate relationship, don’t you agree? And those who benefit from intimate relationships are obliged from time to time to have one of their orifices filled. With that in mind, which orifice would you prefer?”
Senator Graham: “Well, they don’t call me Senator Ben Dover for nothing.”
1There is a sickness to this ugly creature no ACA can fix! To combine Graham and Bachmann into one is to create the most repugnant of a-holes!!
They just make my innards tie up into knots with all they are doing to totally implode this country!!
2Au contraire Senator Graham. Conservative ideologues in both Houses are the problem. When it is more important to push an agenda than fund a government there IS the problem. If these elected officials are seriously patriotic, lead, follow or resign. Obstruction is not a legitimate political position.
3Should have given it Gohmert’s hairdo.
4e platypus onion – Is it not enough that he has Gohmert’s morals?
5This is a complex bill, difficult to understand, but if Graham is for it and Warren against then it’s a very bad bill. It would be better to have a shutdown than to pass this corrupt thing.
6“Tired and emotional” is the usual code phrase for “alcoholic who’s being dried out”….. Applies to Graham more than Warren, certainly.
I’ve been away from the news for a few days and I came back here first, but I did hear that this bill throws down what’s left of our campaign finance laws and dances on them in hobnail boots, so I agree with LynnN– Graham likes, Warren hates, bill sucks.
7Here’s a question for Senator Graham: “Senator, would you characterize Ted Cruz as ‘tired, frustrated, and upset about a provision in a bill that he doesn’t like’? If not, why do you use those words to characterize Senator Warren’s speech?”
Here’s another question: “Senator Graham, would you say that you were tired and emotional when you condemned the Republican report on Bengazi?”
8Bill should have never passed the House, but too many Blue Dogs laid down for the Citigroup “poison pill.”

Perhaps Senator Warren should speak slower, so Senator Graham can understand.
9I wish I could unsee that photo — it’s so wrong and so right.
10That photo is a real clincher about the nature of Linn-she Graham. I wish he would do truth & justice a favor and get out of the closet … even if he’s celibate gay guy, at least he’s presenting a real truth, instead of an image formulated by Jerry della Famina.
11Oh jeez, now I’m going to have to gouge out my own eyeballs after seeing that.
12He just waved a red flag in our faces and it would serve him right to be gored and bloodied for that “old boy” misogyny.
13“You’re a girl.”
No, Lindsey, Elizabeth Warren is a mature and intelligent woman who knows whereof she speaks. Ask Jamie Dimon who scares the bejeesus out of him. It ain’t no sniveling little girl, but she sure turns you “men” into sniveling cowards, whose only defense of the indefensible is to demean her. Typical Republican’t reaction to reason.
That’s the prettiest do I’ve seen on Lindsey in years. Makes you wonder what he’d be like if he could just be what he is…bless his heart! Nice work, Mr K!
14Wow,
Coming from Senator “they’ll kill us all”, this line of reasoning is beyond contempt. Though, in all fairness, if our senior senator can survive being called a “socialist whore” to her face by one of our local “Brownies”, I think she’ll abide…
15Lindsay Graham, “Manspaining” ANYTHING to ANYONE? Nope, that’s an automatic, permanent fail.
16Little Linsay and his buds have been backed into a corner by a President who called their bluff and now they’re throwing the decorative accessories all over the place cuz thats all they got going for them now. The do nothing total obstruction bunch is about down to nothin’. It ain’t just the immigration issue. Its all the stuff they refused to do. That ain’t governing but you will never be able to convince them of that. Sorry, sorry sad bunch of useless DNA.
17John, you did a good job with that picture.
18What if Miss Lindsey likes kissing blue butt? He might like it,doncha know? Be another lame excuse for him to do nothing in a do nothing congress.
19If I were going to put Graham’s face on Bachmann’s body, I would have not put it in that position. A more posterior aspect might be more accurate.
20Ralph Wiggam, before we create the accurate version of Twister that represents Republicans, let’s give a huge round of applause to John for his subtle on point originality.
Meanwhile, it’s Sunday, so Senator Graffiti will be out there displaying his posterior gymnastics. If I was into beating my head against the wall, would almost find a moment of schadenfreude watching the Sunday frolics with Lindsay removing his head from McGrumpy’s posterior long enough to ask, “what’s the problem?”
Seriously, as The Senate Turns, I respectfully ask that Mama tune into Animal Planet this weekend, or the Weather Channel. Better she enjoy the beauty of animals being properly fed, than a Senate rendition of CIA chow lines.
21When was the “socialist whore” slur slung, OF?
22And by whom?
I’m sorry, My Goddess Miss Juanita Jean, but Michele Bachmann will NEVER be close to half the woman Lindsey is. As an openly gay man, I know this to be true. But I really can’t wait for the “Dynasty”-like bitchslap beatdown that is going to occur between Michele and Lindsey over Marcus Bachmann, that big he-man hunkaburnin’love str8 husband of Michele that Miss Lindsey DuBois will surely make a play for. Festoons!

24See this, and possibly others… http://www.slate.com/blogs/xx_factor/2011/11/03/elizabeth_warren_is_called_a_socialist_whore_by_an_audience_memb.html
I’m thinking that Miss Lindsey-woolsey put laudamum in his hanky rather than the preferred lavender.
25dommyluc, dear god and goddesses, no. Just no. This might be more than Grampy McCain’s heart can suffer. Spurred by the Wasilla Wendigo, then spurned by the Georgia Peach, after having been served a rotten meal of Dubya courtesy of the Cheney/Rove rectal feeding compassionate conservatives.
On the sick humor side, men creating lesbians, as Chelly Bachmann runs into the comforting arms of $arah at the home of Shelly Adelson.
… stopping now, out of respect to Mama and a serious need for a complete brain & eyeball bleach.
26Micr, great link; more of the insanity underlying the Tea Bags and ‘Pugs. At the risk of being crude, what part of unemployed and underemployed morons miss the fact that criminal Jamie Dimon is doing just fine, while the GOP just tossed him and the MIC 60+ % of the budget this year with promises for 100%?
Our last hope? Tank the deal, O’bummer. Shut down the freaking lousy government. Stop that treasury payroll, until the silly little Congress punks return and work.
27And the best part @22 & @24,
She was totally composed and even SYMPATHETIC towards the guys problems (though if you watch a video, when he can’t get out of the room by going the wrong way, priceless…). Again, a LOT of the things the TPs want are what our senior senator is pushing for in terms of protecting the rights and property of the average person. Too bad the story doesn’t fit the TP narrative…
28BTW,
While watching Dixie Linsey, I noticed he kept waving one hand while firmly inserting the other in his pants (playing pocket pool on camera?). Talk about looking weak and flustered…
29Old Fart, thanks for providing the caption to accompany John’s visual graphic.
When eyeball bleach won’t suffice, hope we still have that old bottle of scotch in the pantry. If not, I’m snowshoeing out for a bottle.
30Damn, I’ve seen that old Queen somewhere before….
Just saying……
