EK: You told Talking Points Memo that you would filibuster your own climate change bill if immigration moves this year.
LG: Yeah, I was asked a question. They said, "You would vote against your own bill?" And I said yes. I care equally about immigration and climate change. But if you stack them together this year you'll compromise climate and energy. You'll compromise my ability to get votes on climate change. When I told everyone I would do climate, in fact, I was assured we also wouldn't be doing immigration.

So, either Chuck Schumer and co were playing us all along till this AZ law blew up or Graham is lying.

And on immigration, Arizona has made comprehensive reform very difficult this year. And the manner in which it's coming up, where Sen. Reid brings it up at a rally because he's down 15 points in Nevada, is bad for immigration reform. In this environment, what you'd have is bipartisan rejection of immigration. You'd get 75 or 80 votes for the McCain-Kyl [border security] amendment. Then, when you tried to put the pathway to citizenship on the table without a long process of planning and thinking and building support, you'd probably get 60 people voting against it. So you would have lost on immigration again

I think i know who the liar is here lol. I don't believe only 40 senators would vote for a path to citizenship.

Guys...........Let's not talk bad about Mr Graham, He is committed on working on CIR as much as he is on climate change.

For him, cliamte change is important, At least he is a supporter of CIR, something we have not yet seen with others Reps this year.

Let's not loose our minds on negative articles, They will work something out.

Let's be patient please, I know it's been a long time waiting, but we have to be positive.

"If you go, I can't go with you. Some supporters of immigration reform think I've abandoned them," he said. "But they're not listening. This is just too far for me and for the issue this year."
