Graham: More gridlock if Democrats ‘jam’ health care into law

March 14th, 2010 | Comments Off | Posted in Barack Obama, Lindsey Graham
The Obama administration risks losing the ability to get GOP votes on any of its priorities this year if Democrats use procedural tactics to "jam through" the president's health care overhaul and "deal out Republicans," says Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C. pa href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/Z-Rf5FHpJ27jbbI9mmbmBVDN_-g/0/da"img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/Z-Rf5FHpJ27jbbI9mmbmBVDN_-g/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"/img/abr/ a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/Z-Rf5FHpJ27jbbI9mmbmBVDN_-g/1/da"img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/Z-Rf5FHpJ27jbbI9mmbmBVDN_-g/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"/img/a/pimg src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TP-OnPolitics/~4/rAmyBphcagQ" height="1" width="1"/

Republicans distance themselves from O’Keefe

January 27th, 2010 | Comments Off | Posted in Alan Mollohan, Harry Reid, Lindsey Graham, Pete Olson, Steny Hoyer
How ironic. James O'Keefe -- hailed as a hero by Republicans for bringing down ACORN and forcing Democrats to cut ties with the community organizing group -- is now a persona non grata within the Republican party. That is, of course, after his arrest yesterday for alleging trying to interfere with Sen. Mary Landrieu's office phones. pa href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/633fXk4UaPPtt2Fc4QiuYR8AtRw/0/da"img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/633fXk4UaPPtt2Fc4QiuYR8AtRw/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"/img/abr/ a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/633fXk4UaPPtt2Fc4QiuYR8AtRw/1/da"img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/633fXk4UaPPtt2Fc4QiuYR8AtRw/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"/img/a/pimg src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TP-OnPolitics/~4/PPIK4VzDxps" height="1" width="1"/
