In a near party line vote, the Democratically-controlled Senate Judiciary Committee voted 13-to-6 to confirm Circuit Court Judge Sonia Sotomayor. Only one Republican, Sen. Lindsey Graham, voted with the far left. I thought there was only one liberal comic on the Senate Judicial Committee, but I guess there are two: bucktoothed Al Franken and brain dead Lindsey Graham. Graham, who knows he's safe in 2010, believes that when he comes back up for election in 2014, you will have forgotten this cardinal sin. South Carolina, mark your calendars. And, if you can't wait, you can always recall him and put his Senate seat on the ballot next November. There aren't enough Latinos in South Carolina to keep him in office. Oops...the Hispanic vote in South Carolina, like just about everywhere else, vote Democratic. The Democrats, after all, control the welfare wand.

Graham begins by saying the path of least resistance for him would be to vote "no." Had he been smart, he would have. It wouldn't matter much on the outcome of the vote in the Judiciary Committee. The vote was going to be 13-to-6 or a 12-to-7. Graham talked like he thought he represents all of the people of the United States and not just his South Carolina constituents who voted for him. He seemed to be suggesting that since the people voted for Obama, and Obama picked Sotomayor, he was obligated to vote for her. Maybe when he comes up for reelection in South Carolina the liberal voters in New York, California, Massachusetts and New Jersey will flock to South Carolina to vote for him. Let's make Nov. 4, 2014 "Freedom From Lindsey Graham Day."
