Newest Comedian Senator in Senate...

Winner is Lindsey Graham’s latest statement...


Q: What happens if GOP isn't able to pass tax reform?

Graham: "The party fractures, most incumbents in 2018 will get a severe primary challenge, a lot of them will probably lose, the base will fracture, the financial contributions will stop, other than that it'll be fine!"

"What happens if you DO pass the "cut, cut, cut" bill?

Massive loses in suburban-land. No republicans from Simi valley or Orange county or San Diego in California, not even from Central Valley in California (goodbye Jeff Denham!).

that they need to get the tax cuts through & repeal Obamacare. Once Congress does that, the GOP will be fine in 2018. He looked like he had a steaming pile of shit in his mouth when he said it. That's probably still better than what was in his mouth when he & the rest of the GOP got in bed with the 1%.

Imagine a Congress without teabaggers, talibornagains, petty tyrants, and chicken hawks. How bad could it be?

(I’d settle for some good old-fashion bipartisanship but that’s long gone. Like rotary phones.)

Falwell's funeral took place on May 22, 2007, at Thomas Road Baptist Church after he lay in repose at both the church and Liberty University. Falwell's burial service was private. He is interred at a spot on the Liberty University campus near the Carter Glass Mansion and Falwell's office.

In that moment, when it comes, I envision the LU marching band and me in my tap shoes. Maybe I’ll add a baton with streamers. It’ll be glorious.
