So I guess Clinton is someone you could have a beer with?
Oh for sweet Jeebus’s sake, can we STOP with the nudge-nudge-wink-wink Inside-the-Beltway “everybody knows about Lindsey but nobody’s talking”? This story is like everything wrong with the Village in less than 300 words.
Keerist.
“date, marry, or make disappear forever,”
Was this from the Onion?
Wow, based on the beer he poured, Graham sure must like giving a lot of head.
This disqualifies Dana Bash from being a journalist or anyone to take seriously.
Jesus. What dreck.
why didn’t she ask if he’d date Markos Bachmann?
It’s sad when “I’ll give him some credit” means I feel like saying “he’s somewhat less odious than the others.” And to be fair, he is. He’s a warhawk and a GOP establishment turd, but perhaps a drier and therefore less stinky turd…you know, like those dog turds you see that have been sitting out so long they turned white.
How this woman reporter didn’t realize that this topic was demeaning to women, I just don’t know. Will she ask Hillary and Fiorina similar questions? Any man running for President should refuse to answer a question like that.
BTW, Graham’s answer about marrying Fiorina for her money was outrageous. Can you imagine a woman giving an answer like that?
It’s a whole lot better to have a beer with a married woman than it is to try to date her or … marry her for her money.
I thought Graham was smarter than that.
What do you expect from an insipid reporter like Bash…From everything we know about her, she dated CNN’s John King, married him and then was able to make him disappear. She knows very well how to play those games herself.
As for Graham Cracker…she’s just trolling him with her question, and it really rubs me the wrong way.
“She could keep me in the life I’ve become accustomed to,” he joked.
…reminding us that he’s one of hundreds of people in Congress who are completely out of touch with how the average American lives.
Giving Graham a woman would be akin to handing a saxophone to a poodle.
Its a nice way of stating the actual game, which is Fuck, Marry or Kill. And he didn’t make the third selection.
As a gay man, the last time I ever saw a queen as big as Lindsey Graham was when I watched Glenda Jackson in “Elizabeth R”.
You nailed that one correctly. Though I always thought it was supposed to be three different people.
DAMN, it’s times like this THAT I REALLY miss Jon Stewart. HE would’ve had so much FUN with this.
THINK ABOUT IT…
The overt sexism in this is unbelievable. Absolutely unbe-fu@%ing-believable.
What the hell is this crap… I knew the 5th Estate is in deep dodo with what they call “journalism” today but who the hell thinks crap such as this is something that we as voters should be asking a presidential candidate.
TMP, I hold you just as much responsible for even considering that this is important and so important that you would put on your page, for shame. Articles like this is another reason not to go Prime.
CNN pretends this is “journalism”?
Instead of answering the question, Graham would have been completely justified in refusing to play along with this inanity and instead letting loose with a well-deserved criticism of how completely fucked up Bash and CNN are if this is what they ask a Presidential candidate (even one as irrelevant as Graham).
