These people don't even know what THEY believe in. Lindsey was going to applaud, but then realized he'd be the only Republican doing so, so he made like he was rubbing his hands together.



Oh how I wish the Daily Show were not in reruns right now. They'd have a field day with this.

1. Such an idiot! Spineless little POS! n/t

2. Maybe he thought if he clapped the Republican Politboro would erase him from official photos.

I swear, the Republican Party with their focus on "message discipline" resembles the Soviet Union's Communist Party more than a free political party - right down to when it is ok to clap and when to quit clapping.

3. That is too funny

But my Gawd did you see McLame next to him? That's one scary looking face.

4. I saw that, and rewound the Tivo to watch it again.

What a pansy.

5. Oh that was good!

6. This is all so over the top that TDS might

just do all this anyway when they come back..never too late to put joe wilson and lindsey up on the tv screen at TDS.

E gods..lindsey's Busted..and john mccain looked stupid, too.

7. Lindsey almost gets the clap!

Luckily his protection kept him from being treated by other Rethugs like someone with a social disease. ;-)

8. Ha ha! so they weren't clapping in honor of SCHOOLS!!!!?

WHY do they HATE America!!!!! lol

[Phx_Dem]

9. That was HILARIOUS!! And did you see him almost stand up

during one of the ovations? He caught himself just as his ass was leaving the chair -- probably because of the evil eye he was getting from John McCain. It came at some point after the near-clap. Too funny.

This is why parents don't want their little angels to hear President Obama speak -- even Lindsay Graham couldn't control himself.

:rofl:
