Lightfoot Lindsey throws hissy fit

The teacher did not call on him first so the poor dear is going to roll up and cry.
Voicing regrets, Sen. John Kerry said Saturday he is postponing the much anticipated unveiling of comprehensive energy and climate change legislation scheduled for Monday. The Massachusetts Democrat made his announcement after a key partner in drafting the bill, Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, threatened to withhold support if Senate Democratic leaders push ahead first with an immigration bill.

Graham is angry that Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada is considering that. Legislation to overhaul immigration laws and grant legal status to millions of long term immigrants unlawfully in the country could create problems for Republicans in the midterm elections. It's a top priority for Hispanic voters – and most Republicans are opposed. Reid's idea amounts to a "cynical political ploy," Graham asserted.
Why yes sweet Lindsey it is a political ploy that also just happens to be the right thing to do. In a situation like this, the rightness of the cause easily overrides any taint from the games you like to play. So please just shut up, bend over and take it like Rush Limbaugh.
