Blogger conspiracy? Sen Graham caught warning people about "Bloggers running the country"

[ck4829]

After it was announced earlier this week that Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) would replace Sen. Arlen Specter (D-PA) as the ranking member on the Senate Judiciary Committee, bloggers, including ThinkProgress, noted that Sessions had a record of racial insensitivity that stopped his appointment to the federal bench in 1986. Now, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) is hitting back at the blogs:

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said Republicans would fight back hard if Democrats or liberal groups try to make the Supreme Court confirmation process about Sessions’ record, rather than about Obama’s nominee to replace Justice David Souter.

“If people try to go down that road, it’ll blow up in their face, because Jeff is a good guy,” Graham said. “My hope is that our Democratic colleagues — if you start listening to the bloggers — if we’re going to let the bloggers run the country, then the country’s best days are behind us.”

Here's something that will really make a trouser-changer for you:

Smart people running the country!

5. Bloggers are regular people - the American citizenry and, therefore,

SHOULD be running the country.

And then the country's best days would be ahead of us - for more than the top 1 percent.

7. And of course there won't be any RW bloggers out there feeding filth about the nominee to pubbies.

And if they do, we can be sure Lindsey will be sure to not pay any attention to that information.

8. Well, we can't have bloggers run the country. That's the job of RW hate radio.

9. Yes, and General George Soros gives the robotic bloggers their marching orders....

....to riff on a RT rant.

10. The country's best days already ARE behind us.

And it isn't because bloggers have shed light on the slimy, subterranean dealings of slugs like Graham.

15. TRhe criminals don't have a complicit media to hard behind anymore.

People can find the truth on the internet...obviously, that's a problem who prefer that their record not be exposed for public scrutiny. Tough cookies Lindsey - the internet has changed the rules.
