Dear Patriot,
I am primarying Senator Lindsey Graham, he needs to go. As a South Carolinian, I am thankful for the service he has performed for our country and our state in the Senate, but he has demonstrated more and more every year that he is out of touch with Conservative voters. From his criticism of Senator Rand Paul’s filibuster in support of civil liberties to siding against America as part of the Gang of Eight amnesty crafters, Graham has made it blatantly clear what many of us have known for years. Lindsey Graham is no conservative.Help me fight his well-filled war chest with your donation. Our republic can no longer afford him.
I’m Nancy Mace and I am primarying Lindsey Graham. I am running for Senate to represent the State of South Carolina and give our country yet another Senator who will actually side with the Constitution and freedom. Unlike Lindsey Graham, I will not go along to get along, selling out the American people. Unlike Lindsey Graham, I will not mock and attack the fight for civil liberties. Unlike Lindsey Graham, I will not blindly trust government because I believe in what James Madison said, “The essence of Government is power; and power, lodged as it must be in human hands, will ever be liable to abuse.”
Americans cannot afford blind trust in our elected officials. That is never what the founders intended. We have a system of checks and balances for a reason. We all need to remember that there is power in your vote and there is power in your donation. The final check to balance the system is from the voters to oust elected officials who fail to uphold their oath of office to defend the Constitution as Lindsey Graham has. If you stand for freedom, then I ask that you stand with me as I seek to oust Lindsey Graham from office. Any amount that you can donate will help me fight his deep pockets.
As the first female graduate of the Citadel, I have a deep respect and devout appreciation for our Constitution. It is why I took an oath to support and defend it. Lindsey Graham took a similar oath as a member of the Senate, but in siding so frequently with the Democrats and against the Constitution, he has shown that the oath that he took has grown meaningless to him. The future of our republic is too precious to continue to leave someone in office simply because he has served for so long. If the oath to defend and protect the Constitution is no longer honored, then that person is no longer fit to serve the American people. Graham must go!
You see I grew up during the Reagan years. I believe our 40th president understood what being an American was all about. He was proud, resolute, and he was an eternal optimist. Our friends knew he would be steadfast and our enemies respected him. President Reagan helped regain our national pride, but he also left us with a powerful warning. He said, ’Freedom is never more than a generation away from extinction. We must fight for it, protect it, and defend it.’ I think those words ring true now more than ever.
Lindsey Graham is not fighting for freedom. He is fighting against it. In doing so, that means he is fighting against you and the future of our republic.
I believe that I am the best person to serve the State of South Carolina as a Senator. My roots are here and I learned about the importance of sacrifice and service from my father who was a Brigadier General and my mother who was a teacher. Their guidance inspired me to break barriers in attending the Citadel and being the first female graduate. I want to continue to break barriers by doing what some might see as unlikely…. unseating a long serving Senator with deep pockets.
If you want real change, then I ask that you donate whatever you can. $5, $10, $25 or any amount that you can give. Your donation will help me be a voice for all Americans who believe in liberty. We cannot change Washington unless we change who we send to Washington. Help me get to DC so that I can stand with Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, and Mike Lee as defenders of freedom and the Constitution.

Did they teach syntax at The Citadel, from which Nancy was the first female to graduate? Does Nancy (who, as a female graduate of The Citadel, at which she was first) know that merely quoting the Founders (note the capital F—proper noun!) without any context makes her look mawkish and pandering? And when Nancy was graduating first from The Citadel as a woman for the first time, did she take any public speaking courses? If so, the first woman to graduate from The Citadel deserves a refund.
Surely you can do better than grammar. Capital F?
And I take back my comments to Will for hiring that Chinese proofreader (formerly with WLTX and The State) for his articles – it was Nancy!
WLTX was pretty bad in the days I used to comment there, no kidding.
My references to WLTX and The State were directed to their internet news sites in the last 10 months. My reference about Nancy was meant to be a joke. But she needs better writers and editors for her pronouncements. When Fitsnews has published something that has a goofy error it doesn’t bother me because I can get the point he’s trying to make. Something that is as important as Nancy’s mailings should be perfect.
If she can’t speak and write using good English grammar, she doesn’t deserve to be elected.
I don’t support a tea party candidate for any office, but the gestapo grammar patrols are out today. She is only one of many who do not write or speak English correctly. Even though I admire Senator Graham in many ways, nobody botches the English language any more than he does.
She used to do “public relations.” Who the hell goes into PR without basic grammar? Who asks people for their money without making sure the APPEAL ITSELF doesn’t make you look like a dumbass?
That’s so redneck southerners can understand him when he says he ain’t gay. The rest of us Southerners could understand him if he just spoke proper English.
Just for kicks, here’s a quick lesson:

Bless her heart. Who writes her stuff? If it’s the candidate herself, well, draw your own conclusions.

Watch her early funding raising numbers. If she can’t crack $100k-$150k between now and quarter end (9/30/13) her candidacy will be hard pressed to be significant factor, if a factor at all, in the June 2014 primary.
You are exactly right, and that’s going to be a tough nut for her to crack.

Sad. Lindsey’s an assclown, but he’s no traitor. Get specific, girl.
BS. He’s one of the worst on the hill.
“Free speech is a great idea, but we’re in a war.” -Lindsey Graham
I’d call that traitorous to the ideals this country was founded upon.
Then how would you have handled the government censoring our mail in World War 2 and rationing our gas, food and clothing? We were in a war.
In WWII we actually were “in a war”.
“primarying?” She seemed far more qualified BEFORE she started running–and she had no qualifications to speak of then either.
“Primarying?” OK, I am “commentating” on Fitsnews, which apparently is gaining national attention. Too bad Nancy sold her equity interest in Fitsnews too soon.
Yeah that one did catch my eye, but hey…If NPR uses it must be gold!!

OK – and also I thought Sic Willie invented “RINO”

I was going to say, the whole thing was pretty much written by an 11-year old. The first sentence alone is grammatically incorrect and just goes downhill from there.
Perhaps she has a CSOL grad on her team?

Will, can you help her? She failed to use “not a core function of government” anywhere in this appeal.

Lord, that was awful.

I must have missed something. I didn’t even see the word Republican in this release. Is she running as a Republican? Must be if she’s challenging Graham.
If she can’t even put the “R word” in her release, why would I, as a Republican even consider voting for this person. She should run as a Libertarian and not bother “primarying” Graham.
Because the word Republitard is going to be a death knell this season!
Then she should run as a Libertarian, not a Republican…that was my point. if she can’t even write the “R word”, how could she honestly pretend to be one?
Reasonable.
The Tea Partiers are not really Republicans.
They vote 100% republican.
Libertarians are not willing to run as Libertarians. Could never get enough votes. If they run as Republicans, then can get the vote of the mindless that vote straight tickets.

This “first female graduate of the Citadel” crap is getting old. Her father’s status essentialy assured her way through there. Sorta like the high school quarterback who thought he earned his starting job when his dad was the coach.
Agreed. But wait, hey, Hitler was first (no correlations intended.) :)
How’s this for a non-sequitur? “As the first female graduate of the Citadel, I have a deep respect and devout appreciation for our Constitution. ” Those two things are completely unrelated. How does her status as “the first female graduate” have anything to do with the Constitution? Maybe it was the fact that the US Supreme Court ORDERED schools like VMI/El Cid to let chicks in? I’m sure that’s a big hit with the voters. “I went to The Citadel because Justice Ginsburg said so!”
Good point.
Right on – I thought I was the only one scratching my head about that one. Do Citadel kids really have to swear some kind of binding oath to the US Constitution, even if they don’t join a branch of the military? I didn’t know that. Did Mace ever join the military? I think probably not just based upon the fact that she hasn’t mentioned anything about it. I don’t know that much about the inner workings of the Citadel, but I do know that it’s NOT military service.
No, she did not.
Thanks – I figured not, which is fine. It just irks me when people (subtly or otherwise) try to lump attendance at the Citadel in with military service.
As long as we are all being critical…let it be known that although I might think of myself as a “patriot”
I don’t like to be greeted as one. Like a pander to the weak minded who like group think, secret hand shakes, herd mentality. Living in this country, we should all be patriots. I suppose it is an appeal to the Tea Party but as a device it lacks sophistication, like “comrade.”

But I still give her credit for attempting to do something. She will learn and improve as the weeks and months go by – especially if she reads Fitsnews each day.
Food for the mind of the soul!!

Not one single dime. This woman stood by while her degenerate business partner attacked Nikki Haley in a tough primary against corrupt establishment Republicans. That hate filled rant should have earned Folks a world class ass whipping from every Conservative in South Carolina, and yet, Mace stood up for him.
You know who stood by Governor Haley, when all of the so called “leaders” like Mitt Romney ran and hid? Governor Sarah Palin, whose endorsement took Haley from #4 in the race to #1. Palin didn’t just support Haley, she went on the offense against filth like Folks.
So it comes as no surprise Folks runs a hate filled rant against Governor Palin today.
This is as big of a hate site as the Daily Kos, or the Huffington Post!
“Gov.Sarah Palin, whose endorsement took Haley from #4 to #1”
This is a time when I regret not saving the news articles about Palin’s endorsements. The articles mentioned that a $50,000 appearance fee was required, and that no one could discover the payment method. Remember that this was around the time the Temple received a bank loan — remember that Daddy told the congregation that only $700,000 was borrowed? Remember that the bank said that the loan was for $750,000? No one has ever explained (that I have seen) what happened to the difference of the magical $50,000……….. interesting, huh?
Please!
Your words are hurtful!
Don’t cut ol’ Marky the Luv Guv out of the history lesson- he helped Nikki too…

She has my vote. She doesn’t appear to be another blue-nose Bible-thumper, yet she has conservative and Libertarian values. She would be my first choice out of those now running, grammar Nazis be damned.
I would love to see Nancy Mace be the winner, but as I have said before, ANYone but Lindsey. This treasonous hater of American citizens and taxpayers has got to be removed from office come 2014.
