Kagan Confirmed, 63-37

Posted on | August 5, 2010 | 20 Comments

The five Republicans voting yes were the Maine dames and three testicular atrophy cases led by (who else?) Lindsey Graham.

“The confirmation took place as a thunderstorm raged outside.”

I can understand voting yes if you are facing reelection challenges at home and she was all but assured of getting in anyway…

But what is Graham’s rationale for doing what he does?

What ever Graham’s motivation or any one else’s for that matter, we are going need lots of mud bricks.

Retiring Sen.Judd Gregg of NH has no excuse, but then again, he voted to confirm Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Sonia Sotomayor too. Establishment Republican through and through.

MA Sen. Scott Brown had a moment of testicular fortitude and voted NO. Good for him.

Oh, Joe. Search for his press statement on it. It’s priceless Graham.

If you’re too busy, it mostly boils down to, “Hey, Obama won. This is the gentlemanly way to run Washington: rollover for the people in charge.”

Classic clueless.

Snowe, Collins, Lugar and Graham are always a given. But Gregg? Guess it’s his way of giving one last salute. It would be better if the gang of four would leave the Party. Those disguises are thread-bare.
