   Lindsey Graham gets teabagged by climate change deniers at Town Hall:   
   "You're a Traitor"   
   By John Amato   
   This post should have gone up the other day, but I accidentally deleted it.   
   Anyway, many Republicans in Congress think that the teabaggers are just your   
   average extreme wingnut who has been radicalized by FOX, but still loves   
   them their conservatives.   
      
   Well, Lindsey Graham got a taste of what has been going on far more times   
   than the media will ever mention. Part of the teabagger base has no love for   
   the warmongering Bushies either. They are too ignorant to apply the same   
   rules for Beck and Hannity because they need leaders to focus their hatred   
   for them, but Lindsey does not have such a luxury. They want the country to   
   be made up of militia-style right wingers that are heavily armed and want no   
   part of the black president.   
      
   Brad Johnson fills us in.   
      
     Right-wing activists across the nation are enraged by Sen. Lindsey Graham's   
   (R-SC) decision to work with Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) to craft comprehensive   
   climate and clean energy legislation. In an op-ed published in Sunday's New   
   York Times, Graham and Kerry discussed their agreement on a framework for   
   mandatory global warming pollution reductions linked to government support   
   for the nuclear, coal, and natural gas industries. The Natural Resource   
   Defense Council's Dan Lashof embraced the announcement as a "game changer."   
   Bill Scher noted that Graham has "crossed the climate Rubicon," abandoning   
   denialist conservative activists by recognizing the threat of global warming   
   and working with Democrats.   
     --   
     Graham held a town hall meeting in Greenville, South Carolina in which   
   local Tea Party activists accused him of "going to bed with John Kerry" and   
   making a "pact with the devil," accusations which generated tremendous   
   applause by the assembled crowd. This unhinged response is reflected in the   
   conservative blogosphere, where Graham has been called a "fake Republican,"   
   "RINO" (Republican in name only), a "traitor," "disgrace," "asshat,"   
   "democrat in drag," and a "wussypants, girly-man, half-a-sissy"   
      
   You can expect this behavior for a long time. If Dick Armey were still part   
   of the Republican congress, he too would be getting the same treatment if he   
   tried to help solve some problems facing America today with any Democratic   
   politician. Instead, he's out there helping organize these characters -- at   
   the behest of the insurance companies. Guys like Graham get to deal with the   
   beast they've unleashed.

   For 1 billion trillion years   
   16 eternity's   
   27 forevers   
   11 thousand years before the teabggers get up off their knuckles and   
   straighten their spines . .   
      
   You can go ahead and secede any time you'd like.
