Scott Brown Votes "No" on Kagan, Grahamnesty Votes "Yes"


Once again, we must apologize to Massachusetts for once suggesting that Lindsey Graham is the third Senator from that state. Massachusetts has more reliably conservative representation in the United States Senate than Lindsey Graham offers South Carolina.

Yesterday,
the U.S. Senate voted, 63 – 37, to confirm Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court. Among those who did not vote to confirm Kagan, was Senator Scott Brown of Massachusetts. Among those voting with the Democrats to confirm Kagan was South Carolina's Lindsey Graham.

In a statement explaining his vote, Brown said:

“When it comes to the Supreme Court, experience matters. No classroom can substitute for the courtroom itself, where decisions are made that affect the day-to-day lives of American citizens, and where one's judicial character and temperament is shaped in favor of the fair and just application of the law.”

As Supreme Court decisions and Elena Kagan's critical votes accrue over what may be decades, remember Scott Brown's principled decision ... and remember South Carolina's rogue Senator who voted to put her there.

You can thank Senator Brown at: (202) 224-4543 or (617) 565-3170.

Don't waste your time calling Lindsey, but he will likely be on the Republican Primary ballot in 2014.
