#1 Lindsay Graham is correct (this time) - we are (statistically) stupid; what more proof is needed than the election of the whole crowd in DC?

#2 When the people find they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic.

#3 The republic is over. They're just keeping up the facade as long as possible to keep the masses from going full Greek/Spanish/etc who hide wealth and business from the tax farmers. Of course, those in the oligarchy already own their representatives in the government to grant them ways to protect their 'piece of the action'.

#4 You are probably right, P2K. But Graham is up for reelection in 2014. Obviously he will have the advantages of incumbency and a healthy war chest. But we can still hope he will have an opponent in the primary who will remember this charade and effectively remind the voters. I even have a campaign slogan: Dump the RINO. Kinda catchy, huh?

#5 Graham already has 3 primary challengers.

Will be an interesting election. The Tame Republicans figure they have all but eliminated these upstart Tea Party types. Would love to send a few more of them packing in '14 -- to be replaced with Cruz and Rand types. Swapping a McCain for a Cruz is in many ways a bigger win than swapping a generic D for a generic R.
