A Senator from South Carolina calling Georgia officials about THEIR election was the fishing expedition. Now Lindsey, you need to answer some questions!

[mikeoxbig]

Preaching “personal responsibility” to others is one thing. Living up to it is something else entirely. Am I right, Lindsey?

[palillo]

What ever happen to conservatives saying "just comply if you haven't done anything wrong"?

If they have nothing to hide, why the problem with them being asked questions

Lindsey Graham: "This subpoena is a fishing expedition"
Yes, it's a fishing expedition to figure out what a South Carolina fish was up to in Georgia election waters.

[Thekingmaker]

Yea, it's a fishing expedition, but only beecause you been acting real fishy senator.

[Chris.Davies]

Lindsey should be saying, "I can't wait to answer the questions the committee has for me."
Anything else is basically saying, "I am guilty of crimes."
If he has nothing to hide, then he has nothing to fear! NOTHING!

If it’s a fishing expedition Graham’s sure has got a big enough mouth for it!

[uwcndty]

the party of "law and order" sure has a hard time with complying with the law.

[deniserussell]

They can dish it but they can't take it; the shoe is on the other foot...

[jeezumcrow]

Poor Lindsey can’t legitimately explain why he called the GA SOS asking him to throw out mail in ballots in heavily Democrat counties, so he makes baseless excuses.

"Separation of powers issue", yeah Lindsey you shoulda separated yourself from the powers in Georgia

[Sundancer]

When there are lots of big fish in the criminal pool, a fishing expedition is sure to result in a good catch.

[fartzinacan]

My senator, Lindsey Graham, never disappoints when it comes to disappointing us here in South Carolina. He'll never pass up an opportunity to bring embarrassment to his constituents. He shames us. He fails to be a leader and he fails to honor his oaths.

[lspthrattan]

IF IT'S A FISHING EXPEDITION, THEY PICKED A DANG GOOD FISHING SPOT! MORE LIKE SHOOTING FISH IN A BARREL--POLITICAL FISH SWIMMING IN A BARREL MADE OF THEIR OWN LIES!

[EvilJawa]

You know what the difference between an investigation and a "fishing expedition" is? Guilty people call it a fishing expedition, because they know there's evidence there.

[chrisnelson]

A "fishing expedition", huh?
Well, it appears there are plenty of fish to be caught here, so let's get on with it!

Lindsay Graham: "This is all politics."
As are you Lindsay, as are you.
