What do Dick Lugar, Lindsey Graham and Hugo Chavez have common? All three men are useless clowns.

Ms. Lindsey is Rockefeller Republican who got elected in South Carolina by masquerading as a Conservative. He always seeks to get the love of the Progressives by selling out his own side. The latest example of Ms. Lindsey trying to get the acceptance of the Democrats is his attack on the Tea Party movement. The GOP electoral victory would not have been possible without this Conservative/Libertarian grass roots movement. Rather than praise them for reviving the Republican Party and Conservatism, he warns them to cooperate on decisions.

(CBS) Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., called on freshmen “Tea Party” members to help provide solutions in the next Congress and begin making tough decisions.

Although he praised the newcomers for their ability to shake up the political landscape, he cautioned that the new Congress, when it convenes next year, must not be “just all talk” and be willing to make sacrifices on spending.

Lindsey Graham is lucky he will not be up for re-eelction until 2014. If it was 2012, he would be the top targets of Conservatives.

Dick Lugar (R-Indiana) is another clown who needs to go. He no longer listens to his constituents. He is a Tranzi Republican who puts Global interests ahead of America’s. Conservatives in Indiana are now talking about challenging him. Instead of heeding the wishes of his base, he continues to support Progressive policies.

In Indiana, though, Dick Lugar isn’t tacking right. “It’s almost as if he’s inviting a primary challenge,” one frustrated Beltway Republican said this week as Lugar agitated for the DREAM Act and stood by his earmarks in the omnibus. Lugar’s spokesman told me Friday that the senator had not made up his mind on the omnibus before Democrats pulled it.

“I think he still doesn’t get it,” a conservative Hill staffer told me. One Republican political operative says Lugar’s just been in town so long he’s lost touch with his party. “I don’t think he’s intentionally trying to dare people to run against him. I just think he’s tone-deaf.”

Being undecided on that pork-filled spending bill puts Lugar at the far Left end of the GOP caucus. Spokesman Mark Helmke attributed Lugar’s indecision to his focus on ratifying the START Treaty with Russia, which is a prime target for Sen. Jim DeMint, the champion of insurgent Republicans.

Senator Dick needs to wake up to the fact the era of Compassionate Conservatism AKA. Rockefeller Republicanism is over. The Wilsonian and Tranzi foreign policy model have failed. What the Tea Parties want is Jacksonian and America’s interest above all others. Personally I hope Dick gets challenged and defeated in the 2012 primaries.

Last and most certainly least is our old pal, Hugo Chavez. The Progressive clown of Venezuela is now planning to regulate internet access. This is a way to create a totalitarian regime in the once great nation of Venezuela.

CARACAS, Venezuela — Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez defended plans for a law that would impose broadcast-type regulations on the Internet, saying Sunday that his government should protect citizens against online crimes.

Chavez’s congressional allies are considering extending the “Social Responsibility Law” for broadcast media to the Internet, banning messages that “disrespect public authorities,” “incite or promote hatred” or crimes, or are aimed at creating “anxiety” in the population.

Chavez is a loon who is self destructing and no longer popular in his own country. Clearly he is taking a  page from the Net Neutrality push being done by the Obama regime. They are after all both 3rd World Liberation ideologues.

Clowns like Ms. Lindsey Graham, Dick Lugar and Hugo Chavez should go away. Humanity would be much better off without them in politics.
