lindsey graham? say it ain't so
yeah that'd be nice

Fucking facts.How the fuck is Mitt Romney voting to lift sanctions?! Mitt you were right when you debated Obama in 2012, why aren't you leaning on that you twit?
Sad thing is like 15 years from now everyone will be talking about how Mitt is the beacon of modern conservatism, much like they did with McCain completely ignoring their actual record as politicians.
At least McCain sunk the ACA repeal. That, for anyone, would be a career defining moment.
Romney's claim to fame when all is said and done that he didn't vote on changing the name of a Post Office, or some such other worthless bullshit.
What is even the argument against these sanctions? Better relations with Russia means better business? God, this country is broken
Per Romney's spokesperson:what the hell is the argument against this? I don't understand?!?
A spokeswoman for Romney said his vote "was in line with longstanding U.S. policy and will help preserve our leverage to gain concessions from other bad actors. The senator expects the administration to reimpose sanctions if these companies don't comply."
I have no clue. I think she's saying we're going to get shit from them? I'm not sure what else it could mean, but I also don't know what we're trying to gain, according to her.
The GOP is a cancer on American democracy. They are a hurtful, destructive force, and the single most dangerous threat facing the American people, full stop. The history books will show this -- if we still have history books.
Right? Nothing odd about that at all. Seems super normal.
They don't call him R (Russian) Money for nothing. Putin runs the executive and legislative branches of of our government. Soon he'll get another couple more judges when Clarence retires and RBG's slot opens up.
As I've been asked many, many times for other things: was he the deciding vote?So the government is shut down and there's one important vote and that can't be moved?
And what about his history of voting with Republicans on this issue?
Posting a senator's voting history is a "conspiracy theory"?Who is that bearded goof, and why are you reposting his conspiracy theories?
Why does this matter with regards to this conversation?As I've been asked many, many times for other things: was he the deciding vote?
Everything. Nothing. Personally, I don't really care about the sanctions. If it's important to you, go right on ahead and criticize. I was just posting the reason why he missed today's vote.
Romney wasn't the deciding vote either, are you going to complain that people in this thread are being mean to poor Mittens?As I've been asked many, many times for other things: was he the deciding vote?
(Also the woman in your avatar threw her support behind Jill Stein and helped get Trump elected, and Bernie's chief strategist Tad Devine worked for pro-Russian candidates alongside Paul Manafort, so do you really have a problem with Bernie not voting against Russian interests?)
I thought so.
Yup, so sad to see that thread here a few weeks ago about if "romney is good?"And there's Mr "Russia is our biggest geopolitical foe" Romney voting for the shit.
Fucking scumbag sellouts
I don't care about Mitt Romney.Romney wasn't the deciding vote either, are you going to complain that people in this thread are being mean to poor Mittens?
Russian oligarchs are bad, but we don't even scratch at the surface of domestic oligarchs. I choose to expend my energy on more domestic issues unless it's stuff like imperialism
TRUMP HAS BEEN SO HARD, THE HARDEST PROBABLY, ON RUSSIA. MORE THAN EVERYONE EVER.What's the Republican spin on this one? Has anyone even bothered to provide a justification?
And the Republicans Senators who voted with the Democrats, that very much reeks of McConnell allowing a few Senators to pretend to save face without tipping the scales.
Why shouldn't we deal with both? And really, aren't the two problems deeply intertwined?Russian oligarchs are bad, but we don't even scratch at the surface of domestic oligarchs. I choose to expend my energy on more domestic issues unless it's stuff like imperialism
Whataboutism, a tactic mastered by the Soviet Union / Russia...Russian oligarchs are bad, but we don't even scratch at the surface of domestic oligarchs.
He's already gone against everything his friend John stood for, what's one moreWtf. Cold War era Graham voting to lift sanction? McCain rolling over in his grave.
At some point I think they fear for their life.Democrats need to shout this from the rooftops over and over again.
Compromising material and money on top of that.serious question, are American politicians afraid of Russian oligarchs and their power? does a Republican Senator fear a hit could be ordered on them?
because i just dont get it.
I guess you didn't notice the aggressive insinuations you were obviously advertising.
