U.S. SENATOR SAYS HE WILL CAMPAIGN ON LOVE OF BUSH … 

So here’s liberal U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham speaking to a group of (mostly) head-nodding older people at an event today in South Carolina … effortlessly mongering fear like the seasoned War God he is.

According to Graham – who was challenged by one questioner to defend his interventionist world view – he plans to campaign for reelection on the basis of his support for former U.S. President George W. Bush’s foreign policy.

“I’m in the Bush camp. I like Bush,” he said. “I like the idea that we’re gonna understand who our friends are and we’re goin’ go after our enemies.”

Wait … but what about the failure of the Iraq War?

According to Graham, U.S. President Barack Obama snatched defeat from the jaws of victory there.

“We were inside the ten-yard-line and it breaks my heart that all those kids who fought in Iraq – that it all went bad because Obama didn’t have the guts to see it through,” Graham said.

Seriously? 

That’s about as ludicrous a statement as Graham declaring himself to be a supporter of “limited government” in the very next breath.

Returning to the jihadists (presumably the ones he’s not in bed with) Graham says “I don’t know why these people are crazy – they just are.”

But don’t worry … little Lindsey solider boy is on the case.

“You will not hurt my country again,” Graham vowed. “And if there’s an American citizen who wants to help these guys, then he should go to jail or he should get killed in the act of helping these guys. I believe we’re at war … we’re not fighting somebody who robbed a liquor store.”

Such a tough guy … you know, so long as it’s other people’s guns, and other people’s money.

Do they vote? Do they contribute? If either answer is yes, what’s funny about it?

Careful, if you doubt the almighty Graham, terrorists will sneak nukes through the Charleston harbor. You don’t want the terrorists to win, do you?

Most of SC Hates Graham March 3, 2014 at 5:13 pm

All across the state of South Carolina and the nation, Graham is looked upon as having a sickness between his ears. Put billboards in Charleston along Hwy 17 headed into Mt. Pleasant that say he is an unstable pathological liar and a mental case, and his record does prove– it will help destroy him. He needs his ass kicked something bad. Everyone I talk to hates the man’s – or should I say, “closet gay boy’s – guts. They want to see him go to prison – they want him punished.

You are a proven psycho. And your history easily substantiates the same. Now with that said, go back under the rock you crawled from under. Graham is still a sack of pig shit —- like you — HAHAAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

CNSYD,
TBG understands that the people he talks politics with are not a representable sample. TBGs “Ron Paul” bumpersticker is often a conversation starter. Even so, FWIW, TBG has never talked to one single person who supported Graham!!! I have talked to old military guys, that tear up when they talk of GWB, but the same folks hate Lindsey Graham’s guts…

Yeah, because we had a chance to win the Iraq War. Brilliant decision to do that. But it got Bush reelected and all. I do like where he gets to be a tough guy, saying “they will not hurt my country again”. Just like Cheney. Running his mouth about wanting to go to war while conveniently avoiding having to go to war personally. What a chicken hawk pussy.
Sad thing is, his opponents are no better.

“Such a tough guy… you know as long as it’s other people’s guns, and other people’s money”… and other people’s sons and daughters. Obummer and Grahamnasty are both guilty. President Bush went into Iraq with the intel that was available at the time. (Where do you think the WMDs in Syria came from? ) Our military won a resounding victory over Husain. That’s when we should have left. The idea of “nation building” should be left to the nation needing building. I told a younger friend recently that it looks like Fallujah is his generations Saigon. Both generations sold out by the same liberals who when the victory is won by getting our soldiers killed and wounded cut and run to the next “adventure. “Graham would have had US go into Syria, was on the wrong side in Egypt and no telling what in Russia. He has been in Washington far too long. RESTORE HONOR VOTE CONNOR.

Watched the video. BS. Even your heroes Kerry and Hillary voted for the Iraq war before they realized they could get more face time on TV by being against it. Like Vietnam it was a just and noble cause turned to crap by liberals. Don’t worry about the sacrifices they were mostly conservatives anyway.

How did TBG’s hero, Ron Paul vote?

RE, we agree on much…but involving ourselves militarily around the world in “just and noble causes” is liberalism. Wilsonian Progressivism, to be more specific. For the sake of argument, TBG will spot you the justness and nobility of WWI, Viet Nam and Iraq and still contend they were bad ideas. (The road to Hell being paved with good intentions etc).

Viet Nam was started by JFK, who compared to today’s standards (admittedly) doesn’t seem very liberal but was escalated by LBJ, who is right there in the pantheon of liberalism, along with Woodrow Wilson, FDR, George W Bush, and Barack Hussein Obama.

I always enjoy it when one of these Non Republican Republicans cant stand it anymore and finally admits what he is as TBG does above.

But like Fits, The Colonel, Ellington, and Pytel,he really Aint no Republican!

TontoBubbaGoldstein March 5, 2014 at 3:19 pm

For the record, TBG has never claimed to be a Republican.

Actually, Ike sent the first small contingent of “advisors”.

Yes and if John Foster Dulles hadn’t had it in for Charles DeGual he would have sent an air strike into Din Ben Fu and the whole Vietnam war could have been averted had they got Ho. It is amazing how little screw-ups way back come later to bite US. Along that same line , if the sniper that had Sadam in his cross hairs had been told by Colin Powell to fire the Iraq war could have been averted. 41 could have just kept on going and that would have been that.

Question March 5, 2014 at 3:46 pm

Really.Why would Charles DeGaulle have had anything to do with Dulles evaluations regarding DienBienPhu?He wasn’t even in French Government at the time.How could Dulles have”had it in” for him?

TontoBubbaGoldstein March 5, 2014 at 6:52 pm

“…had they got Ho. “

So many bad things could have been averted…

The US, maybe because of the Puritans, is way too sexually repressed, in TBG’s opinion. Destigmatizing and legalizing prostitution would go a long way to…

Wait…

WHAT?!!!!

“Uncle Ho?”

*Nevermind*

RogueElephant March 5, 2014 at 9:16 am

Agreed. Those “just and noble” causes must reflect American interests not the interests of anyone else. Ron Paul is a little too hands off for me. (isolationist) His way would allow crack pot countries to slip up and nail US, I say get them first. Like Iran, before they blow up Israel we should help Netanyahu any way he needs US to. But this administration won’t lift a hand for him. The Muslim Brotherhood is our enemy and should be dealt with over there rather than here. BTW my hero is Rand Paul. Met him talked to him, great guy, has his head on straight. He will make a great POTUS.

“we’re going after our enemies” would hold more water if the politicians were in the front of the first troops on the ground.
