Greenville Republicans Vote to Censure Sen. Graham, Reprimand State Lawmakers

The Greenville County Republican Party Executive Committee met Monday night to elect members of three standing committees. The meeting ran for 3 hours, including brief comments by one presidential candidate and representatives of three other candidates.
Following the election of members of the Finance, Rules and Candidate Recruitment and Liaison Committees, two hotly debated resolutions were passed by executive committeemen.
A resolution proposed by Chris Golden would have asked Sen. Lindsey Graham to resign as a member of the Republican Party, and not seek the Republican Party nomination for the United States Senate or any other office in the future.
After extended debate, the resolution passed with an amendment that was a compromise between the original strong resolution and a much weaker one.
The resolution that passed with a majority vote of representatives from 60 of Greenville’s 105 organized Republican precincts follows:
Whereas, the 2001 Greenville County Republican Convention passed a resolution opposing any legalization of illegal immigrants;
Whereas, the Greenville County Executive Committee in 2004 and 2006 passed resolutions opposing any legalization of illegal immigrants;
Whereas, thousands of grass-roots, self-described Republicans, here in Greenville County have sent e-mails, faxes, letters, made telephone calls, and showed up at events to express their strong opposition to any legalization of illegal immigrants;
Whereas, U. S. Senator Lindsey Graham continues to adamantly support legalization of illegal immigrants in spite of the evidence stated above;
Whereas, U. S. Senator Lindsey Graham expressed contempt for grassroots Republicans, conservatives, and anti-illegal immigration activists by calling them “bigotsâ€
While he probably won't go quietly, he will be well taken care of.
He would not have risked this if he didn't have assurances of something better available to him.
He is to stupid to see what he has done, he thinks he knows what is best for the citizens of SC and thats all there is to it, just like a whole lot more of them, they think we don't know whats good for us or our country!!

nntrixie's comment reminds me of something.
I can't recall where I heard it but they thought perhaps Lindsey had been told he would be VP under McCain.
Well, that's no prize.
Time will tell where Lindsey goes next because it seems he's done as a senator.
Oh, he knew exactly what he was doing. He isn't a dumb man, just not honest or honorable.
I'm thinking maybe a judgeship, maybe on the board of several of the big corporations, like poultry, meat packing, maybe even a job with some lobbying firm in DC. He is a lawyer, after all - lots of possibilities.
