A Penny Tip For Lindsey?

I'm tempted - though it's a bit of work - to send Senator Lindsey Graham a penny tip. He's trying to raise campaign money right now, whining that he's being out spent and out raised, and behind his opponent. This, in practically the same sentence as saying he's going to shove thorough the Justice Committee whomever tRump proposes to do the impossible and fill Ruth Bader Ginsburg's shoes as a justice on the supreme court.

Yeah, good luck with that goal, whoever you are. Those shoes will never be filled!

But Lindsey says he's going to push the nomination forward. Just like he said a bit ago that he wouldn't do so, letting the person elected for the next term as President pick the nominee, the same rationale the Republicons used to steal a nomination from the black guy, and we could hold on to the tape where he said it. It was held, and I watched it. Repeatedly. Likely you did too this last week. 

Lindsey has a legacy, a very long history of flip flopping on... everything. The last time he had any core values, they were borrowed from John McCain. Now that we've lost McCain, Lindsey is just another tRump puppet. (tRumpuppet?) And because that hasn't exactly worked well for him, he's now whining about needing more campaign money. (Does he think we believe he'll be any less bought and paid for by the big money interests if he convinces us to contribute our little amounts? I mean, Lindsey? Seriously? Lindsey?)

But we were "mean" to Kavanaugh when he lied his way through the Senate to his confirmation. No, those several times were never rape, the witnesses all lied, and... did you know he likes beer? Actually, I truly believe the bit about beer. But Lindsey was offended that Kavanaugh was questioned about the facts and witnesses were actually called. How dare they?!! So it's time to "get even"? And he needs more money?

I go back a long ways, to when one of the few jobs a young female could get was as a waitress. You learn about tips real fast if you want to survive in that position. And a single penny traditionally speaks very loudly in tipping. It you place it on top of your normal tip, it proclaims your service was excellent, your customer well pleased. 

But when you leave just one solitary penny as a tip, you tell your waitress that yes, you are a person who tips, but the service really sucked! So I'm seriously considering a penny tip for Lindsey. It'll go out the same time I send a larger check to Jaime Harrison.
