Lindsey Graham’s Climate Change
How an immigration amnesty may have cost Democrats bipartisan cover on cap and trade.
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) is gumming up the works. For once, it is the Democrats who are being inconvenienced by his declarations of independence. Today, Graham was to join Sens. John Kerry (D-MA) and Joe Lieberman (I-CT) in releasing a scaled-down cap-and-trade bill. But the grand unveiling was scuttled by Graham’s righteous anger over immigration.
Over the weekend, Graham assailed Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s (D-NV) plans to move ahead on immigration before cap and trade. “Moving forward on immigration — in this hurried, panicked manner — is nothing more than a cynical ploy,” the Palmetto State’s senior senator said in a letter. “Unless their plan substantially changes this weekend, I will be unable to move forward on energy independence legislation at this time.”
In the aftermath of the health care juggernaut, Graham had been the token Republican senator abetting a Democratic effort to revive the flagging national energy tax. The Kerry-Graham-Lieberman version contains more concessions to business than the Waxman-Markey bill that narrowly passed the House last year. It also tried to streamline the system for capping greenhouse emissions while sticking to the goal of reducing carbon dioxide output by 17 percent over a decade.
Then came the news that Reid wants to pursue “comprehensive immigration reform” after his colleagues are done fooling around with the financial sector. Senator Graham was not amused. “Let’s be clear,” he said. “A phony, political effort on immigration today accomplishes nothing but making it exponentially more difficult to address in a serious, comprehensive manner in the future.”
Having had the rug pulled out from under him on immigration, Graham returned the favor on climate legislation. But isn’t Graham — lovingly nicknamed “Grahamnesty” by those to his right on immigration — a supporter of both amnesty and cap and trade? What gives?
There are two reasons for Graham’s discontent. The first is that there is no reason to believe that the country is ready to give amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants and increase low-skilled legal immigration when American unemployment stands at 10 percent. This looks more like a Democratic effort to turn out Hispanic voters — crucial in Senate races like Reid’s in Nevada — rather than a serious attempt to overhaul the nation’s immigration laws.
Reid’s strategy: offer up amnesty to check the boxes for Latino activist groups only to have Republicans take the lead in voting it down. This will also have the effect of pushing a vote on cap and trade closer to the midterm elections, making it less likely to pass. Republican defectors like Lindsey Graham will be asked to walk the plank twice, with nothing to show for it.
An early immigration fight particularly inconveniences Graham’s friend Sen. John McCain (R-AZ). McCain is locked in a tough primary fight with former Congressman J.D. Hayworth. The incumbent’s amnesty advocacy is a major reason for his vulnerability. Gov. Jan Brewer just read the tea leaves and signed Arizona’s new attrition through enforcement law, concluding that to do otherwise in a state fed up with illegal immigration was political suicide.
But if McCain is forced to vote against the approach to immigration policy he has spent the last decade defending, he will have to answer for his flip-flop with those who supported him during the dark days of McCain-Kennedy. That indignity John McCain’s Mini-Me in the Senate cannot allow.
Of course, some Democrats hope they can ram through both amnesty and cap and trade as they did health care. Senate Democrats have written into their budget resolution the proviso that “jobs legislation,” however defined, can be enacted through the expedited reconciliation process. Any energy legislation considered by the Senate this year will purport to create green jobs, potentially making it filibuster-proof.
The idea is to pass as much of the liberal wish list as possible before Democrats lose congressional seats in November. But a rapid succession of politically risky votes in an election year is bound to take its toll on senators and congressmen representing swing states. Growing conservative pressure could make Republican defectors willing to vote for such bills hard to come by.
If such pressure can work on perpetual mavericks like McCain and Graham, it can brought to bear on anyone inside the GOP. The Buggles once sang that video killed the radio star. Might amnesty kill cap and trade?
We can’t rewind, we’ve gone too far.

I don't trust Grahamnesty.
I don't trust any politicians anymore except the staunch conservatives in D.C. - John Boehner, Eric Cantor, Mike Pence, Michelle Bachman to name a few.
If you are willing to work with Democrats, that means you're also willing to go all the way.
Remember everyone, the EPA is more powerful than Congress and plans to use the power they were given by the SCOTUS to enact draconian laws on us anyway. It's a lose-lose situation.

En fait, l'Amérique peut-être besoin de plafonnement et d'échange de corroder les effets que les politiques d'immigration de Graham causerait si elle est adoptée. Une économie naufragé, qui plafonnement et d'échange faciliterait, diminuerait l'immigration du Tiers-Monde en Amérique. En fait, si Graham bet365, John McCain, Obama, les Bush, et le Parti démocrate en général obtenir ce qu'ils veulent sur l'immigration du Tiers-Monde et de la révolution démographique, me compter comme un passionné de plafonnement et d'échange.

Why is it that when the Democrats get one Republican vote, it is called "bipartisan"? The Democrats develop their own bills which are to the left. They then show them to Republicans, who correctly walk away. The Democrats then say the Republicans are "obstructionist". They then pass the bill that they originally intended. Moral: Hold true to your principles.

And the bastards in Washington D.C. want amnesty for this?
These vermin from across the border come to our land and murder our people and their accomplices in our government want to coddle them.
Two illegal aliens, Ralphel Resindez, 23, and Enrico Garza, 26, probably believed they would easily overpower home-alone 11 year old Patricia Harrington after her father had left their two-story home.
It seems the two crooks never learned two things: they were in Montana and Patricia had been a clay shooting champion since she was nine.
Patricia was in her upstairs room when the two men broke through the front door of the house. She quickly ran to her father's room and grabbed his 12 gauge Mossberg 500 shotgun.
Resindez was the first to get up to the second floor only to be the first to catch a near point blank blast of buckshot from the 11-year-old's knee crouch aim. He suffered fatal wounds to his abdomen and genitals.
When Garza ran to the foot of the stairs, he took a blast to the left shoulder and staggered out into the street where he bled to death before medical help could arrive.
It was found out later that Resindez was armed with a stolen 45 caliber handgun he took from another home invasion robbery. That victim, 50-year-old David 0Burien, was not so lucky. He died from stab wounds to the chest.
Ever wonder why good stuff never makes NBC, CBS, PBS, MSNBC, CNN, or ABC news........an 11 year old girl, properly trained, defended her home, and herself......against two murderous, illegal immigrants.......and she wins,
She is still alive.

Graham backed down because he was "outed." See the viral youtube video which exposes how the left has black mailed him for years because of his secret "life style."
Carl R.| 4.26.10 @ 12:27PM
Lindsey Graham is a closeted homosexual. He has been spotted several times in Dupont Circle gay bars and eateries.
He will not come out because his Republican constituents and colleagues would reject him.
The Left has not blackmailed him. The Left wants the Republican gays--and there are many--to be more honest and less hypocritical.
"We're here; we're queer; get over it!" That's what I say.
Doorgunner| 4.26.10 @ 1:02PM
"...to be more honest and less hypocritical. "
The hypocrisy is on the Left. One can be gay, keep it to himself, and be against same-sex marriage. No hypocrisy need be involved.
What one cannot do, though, is unhypocritically target only closeted conservative politicians for 'outing'. When the nellies get all hysterical and picket Herb Kohl, then you can bandy about the words "honest" and "hypocritcal".

Miss Alabama| 4.26.10 @ 5:05PM
Doorgunner,
You have stereotyped and dismissed gay males as "nellie." I think that's Carl's point.
Would you say that Anderson Cooper is "nellie" ? John Travolta? Leonard Bernstein? Or the numerous intellectuals that make up the intelligentsia and cultural elite?
We, as a culture, owe much to homosexuals, so I believe they should be treated with a little more respect.
Aindyin| 4.26.10 @ 8:47PM
The fact that someone is gay and created something of value is meaningless. I owe them nothing because they are gay, if I owe then anything it is because of what they created not what the do in the bedroom. As to what I would call the so called intelligentsia and cultural elite, well lets just say you can't publish that here.
Doorgunner| 4.26.10 @ 9:05PM
I did not stereotype all gay men as nellie; but you just did.
I implied that the gay men who engage in outing closeted gay men are nellie drama queens. human sexuality is, generally, but one factor of many in an individual's character. And I owe no respect to anyone because of his or her sexual orientation, excepting, of course, she who orients herself my way in an expert manner.
Quartermaster| 4.27.10 @ 7:55PM
As a society, we owe nothing to anyone simply because they are queer, other than, perhaps, rejection because of the baleful influence so many of them have on our society. Depravity is never a good thing any any society.
This would also apply to the depraved among the hetero set as well.

Dear Friends,
This is my take on the situation: we are in the opening rounds of chaos and anarchy in governing this country. We have elected representatives that have abandoned their electorate. But these elected officials have scurried to represent big money corporations and special interest groups. And as far as the government is concerned, the Constitution, that rudder that has steered the ship of state for near two-hundred years, be damned.
This is my fault. This is our fault. Think honestly, would you buy a used car from Senator Graham or McCain? Why do people vote him into office? I would like for this senator and McCain to talk to the American people for an hour and explain what they stand for. I don't know. And because McCain and Graham don’t know what they stand for, they (and we) are in the fix they are in. The people of Arizona have now indicated that they have wizened up and had enough of Smiling Jack. What about South Carolina. What about your state?
I'm talking with my co-workers, neighbors, and friends. That is how I'm trying to influence the vote in November.
Just one other tidbit of information, go check with your H.R. department and ask if your current health care coverage is considered "Cadillac Coverage." You may be surprised to learn that you will be taxed on your health care coverage. Or your employer may just drop health-care coverage and leave you with some government run plan. Where I work we found that our coverage, which I though was normal, is considered a Cadillac Health Care Plan. Thank you Senators Stabenow and Levin. I will certainly remind the over three-thousand ticked-off voters where I work who is to blame for their rising health care costs. And at last look, I don't think any of us makes over $250,000 per year. So I'll also remind my friends, neighbors, and co-workers of another broken promise when that community organizer is up for re-election.
Don't give up the fight for this country.
Have a good and safe week,
WRTolkas
R Martin| 4.26.10 @ 8:43AM
I neither know of nor care about Graham's secret lifestyle. I do know he is an Arlen Specter clone and should be voted out asap. A great worry of mine is that Delaware is likely to elevate Mike Castle from the House to the Senate in November. Castle is one of the handful of Republicans who voted with the Democrats for the hideous cap and trade bill. If Castle is elected, Graham will have a strong ally on this toxic issue.

Lindsay Graham is the poster boy for those of us who counsel against electing Republican lawyers to office. Graham and his energy co-conspirators are all lawyers, who have not the slightest idea of the production and distribution of our energy supply. They also don't have a clue to the role of plentiful, affordable energy plays in our economic well being. Scientists and engineers know that they don't have the knowledge or training to practice law. Lawyers think they have the intelligence to practice any profession.
Red Yankee| 4.26.10 @ 10:07AM
Immigration reform needs to be done, but in a comprehensive, thorough, and thought out manner. It is not something that has be rushed through in haste, i.e. Health Care, Cap-n-Trade, Financial reform, etc. The Democrats have lost their credibility awhile back with their political power grabs, and now they are adding injury to insult. Anyone with common sense knows they are doing this for political expediency BY THEIR MERE ACTIONS ALONE instead of for the actual benefits they claim its intended for.
Ray Spitz| 4.26.10 @ 12:25PM
No, it doesn't.
It needs to be done one step at a time with each step being completed before the next one is started. "Comprehensive immigration reform" is just a vehicle for amnesty. We d@mn well know that any such bill will be selectively enforced; border security and an actions against illegals and their employers will be stymied, and amnesty will be provided to as many as possible. In the last "comprehensive immigration reform" bill Congress rejected amendment to cut violent criminals and illegals associated with criminal organizations like MS13 off from amnesty.
FIRST, secure the borders. With fences, walls, hell, MINEFIELDS if that is the only thing that will stop them.
Second, enforce laws against hiring illegals. Provide employers with the means to check on hires, and put the ones who continue hiring illegals OUT OF BUSINESS.
Finally, figure out what to do with the illegals who don't self-deport and remain in country.
There are a lot of good, determined people among the illegals in this country who would make fine citizens. They should be identified and offered a place in our country.
All the others however, should be deported; and being an illegal alien should be a aggravating circumstance to any other crimes illegal aliens commit.
For moral reasons we also need to eliminate illegal immigrations. They are forming a layer of society analogous to slaves; second citizens with reduced protection under the law.
JS| 4.26.10 @ 1:24PM
Ray - your last paragraph succintly describes the ultimate goal of democrat/liberals. They want to produce a sub class of people who are perpetually dependent on the governemnt because it will keep them in political power in perpetuity. That was the purpose of the New Deal, Great Society, and all other social justice legislation.
Bruce | 4.26.10 @ 4:45PM
"FIRST, secure the borders. With fences, walls, hell, MINEFIELDS if that is the only thing that will stop them.
Second, enforce laws against hiring illegals. Provide employers with the means to check on hires, and put the ones who continue hiring illegals OUT OF BUSINESS."
ABSOLUTELY AGREE! As long as there are no substantial penalties for these companies who continue to hire illegals at far below standard wages instead of Americans who want a decent job - nothing will be accomplished. Companies who break the law must suffer the same fate as individuals. Remove the incentive to jump the border to get a job and half the battle is won.
Eric(OfConservativeMind)| 4.27.10 @ 1:55AM
I was watching C-Span earlier, where two individuals -- One from FAIR, and the other from America's Voice(the first being a conservative organization and the latter being more liberal) were talking about immigration reform. The topics on which they both agreed involved cracking down on employers and stopping illegal immigrants at the workplace, as well as developing some kind of easily identifiable national identification credentials that would make it much more difficult for illegals to get by in society.
Of course, groups like SEIU and La Raza have been opposing measures like this all along. Let us hope our politicians do not heed them. I do solemnly pray that our politicians do not heed them.

They are not the least bit shy that many already know what they are trying to do, they are saying to you and those who respect the law , "Try and stop us."
Ghram is a closet lib, he has a proclivity to jump the fence when he sees opportunity for himself and if the circumstances were right he like Specter would cross over, I would bet a good lunch on that hunch. Ghram is one of many profound examples as to why all elected officials need to have their holdings and earning publicly audited every year for all to see and then need to have their affiliations reviewed in order to benchmark their dedication to being true servants of the public and not opportunist out to rape the public coffers.
Our best bet for these charlatans is to have them stop breathing our air and fouling it with their exhations.

I opt for dusting off Ike's program, Operation Wetback, rounding them all up and shipping them back to Mexico. It was done in the 50's and approximately 11 million were sent home. Do that and then fortify the border with the National Guard and enforce the laws we already have. Then Lindsay won't have to worry about an Amnesty Bill, he'll have more time to play pitch and catch and maybe he can "catch" a few fast balls!

Actually, America may need Cap and Trade to corrode the effects that Graham's immigration policies would cause if enacted. A wrecked economy, which Cap and Trade would facilitate, would diminish Third World immigration into America. In fact, if Graham, McCain, Obama, the Bushes, and the Democratic Party in general get their way on Third World immigration and demographic revolution, count me as an enthusiast for Cap and Trade.
