Lindsey Graham: Obama Lap Dog

LIBERAL “REPUBLICAN” RUSHES TO DEFENSE OF COSTLY FOREIGN AID DEAL

U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham wants to help the administration of Barack Obama move its preferred version of a Ukrainian aid package through the GOP-controlled House of Representatives.

In fact Graham put his subservience to Obama on full display this week when U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry testified before a Senate panel regarding the Eastern European crisis.

After Kerry had concluded his testimony, Graham ambled up to him – offering to lobby House Speaker John Boehner on behalf of the administration’s position.

“Hey John, good job!” Graham told Kerry. “Let me know what I can do to help you with Boehner.”

Take a look …

(Click to play)

Neither knew Kerry’s microphone was still on …

For those of you keeping score at home, Boehner’s “Republican” House has already passed a $1 billion economic aid package for Ukraine.

What more could Obama possibly want, right?

A lot, actually …

Obama wants the House to approve the Senate’s version of a Ukrainian aid package – which includes language vowing sanctions against Russia as well as authorization for the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to use additional U.S. taxpayer resources as part of a massive $15 billion bailout of Ukraine.

Ridiculous …

America is broke. Worse than broke, actually … our country is $17.4 trillion in debt. In other words, our taxpayers cannot afford to spend one dime on the situation in Ukraine (whether we should or not), nor can we afford to spend one dime on the IMF.

Obama, Kerry, Graham and Boehner are all wrong on this issue … although it is instructive to see Graham once again veering further to the left than the rest of the “Republican” establishment in Washington, D.C.

UPDATE: It didn’t take long for Graham’s GOP primary opponents to pounce …

“Here’s more evidence of Sen. Lindsey Graham working with Democrats,” Graham opponent Nancy Mace wrote on her Facebook page. “Americans would rather build up our own nation than spend money on foreign aid to another country.”

Once again ,Republicans all over the place.I thought the GOP “line” was that Obama wasn’t doing “enough” in Ukraine?

So, Lindsay Graham says he wants to “help” with aid to Ukraine.Aid that Republicans have said is “not enough.”They want to do “more.”

OK but since they want to do “more,” shouldnt they start out with doing what “little” Obama wants to do?

Or has the “line” changed?Maybe Obama is doing”too much?”With Republicans these things go day to day depending on the relative degree of Obama “hate” they are channeling at any particular moment.

Reply
Smirks March 13, 2014 at 4:18 pm

They can’t give up on the notion that Obama is “weak” on Russia, or anything for that matter. Obama could nuke Russia off the map and Republicans would still claim he’s “weak” and poke fun at handpicked images of him.

It’s not surprising. Remember how the ACA was going to “give everyone free health care?” And then suddenly they switched to “it isn’t going to cover many more people?” Some right wing outlets still claim both.

Don’t worry, the Repubs will go back to fawning over shirtless Putin eventually.

Obama is weak, and he has emboldened Putin with his foreign policy errors. Whether we should declare war on Russia now (we should not) is immaterial to whether Obama’s weakness emboldened Russia to where it felt it could get away with invading Ukraine. Even the Washington Post editorial board has climbed down from Obama’s lap to acknowledge the point about the “fantasy” of Obama’s approach to foreign policy:

“Military strength, trustworthiness as an ally, staying power in difficult corners of the world such as Afghanistan — these still matter, much as we might wish they did not….As Mr. Putin ponders whether to advance further — into eastern Ukraine, say — he will measure the seriousness of U.S. and allied actions, not their statements. China, pondering its next steps in the East China Sea, will do the same. “

You and your “buddies” are out of step – Obama is “weak” on Russia! That’s the talking point. Tune in zombie AM radio and see if it’s not.

CL March 17, 2014 at 12:24 pm

I guess I am out of step with the straw man you have erected about Republican blood lust for war.

You move the goalposts by talking about Obama’s perceived weakness. There is no inconsistency in believing we should not go to war with Russia and believing Obama is weak,which seems to me to be an uncontroversial assessment of a president whose foreign policy started with the apology tour and then moved into phase II of “leading from behind.”

euwe max March 17, 2014 at 8:05 pm

I seem to remember the Republicans claiming credit, breaking their arms patting themselves on the back for the deaths, and civilian casualties… denying the lies from curveball that Powell took to the UN… claiming the certainty of WMD and the imminent attack Saddam represented.
I can understand why your memory is foggy. You didn’t even know about the forgeries… so you *couldn’t* remember them.

CL March 17, 2014 at 8:55 pm

Now you are lying (again). The forgeries were after the British report, and were possibly made to discredit it. I’m not going to do that retarded dance with you again, as you serially misrepresent the facts and what I post.

euwe max March 17, 2014 at 11:03 pm

Condi put the lie to that statement when she didn’t know, and that someone in the bowels of the agency might have known they were forgeries, but no one in her circles did, and finally, when she admitted she had been told, and then forgot… all in explanation of how the 16 words got in the SOTU.

You’re a pathetic loser to believe differently.

CL March 18, 2014 at 8:25 am

We’ve done that before as well. The Brits stood by the report, even after 2 inquests addressing your beloved forgeries, which they found had not impact on their position.

Why not just fault them for what they actually did? They cherry picked the intelligence that supported their narrative. That is not lying, it is advocacy. I think that is inappropriate in making a case for war, but it is not a lie. Yet that is not enough for the loony left, which must not only make their opponents seem wrong, but evil. That is pathetic.

You have lied repeatedly about the timing of the forgeries, and try to redefine words to suit your purposes, so LOL on you calling me a loser. If I am a loser, at least I own a dictionary and understand basic notions of logic. So again, what does that make you?

CL March 18, 2014 at 11:39 am

I said I would not go down this rabbit hole with you again, and this is precisely why. You are lying about what I said again. I never said there was no forgery. There was an Italian forgery, but it was not the basis for the British report. The forgery was created after the British report was generated and the British subsequently reaffirmed their findings even in light of the forgery. Bush was relying on British intelligence findings that had absolutely nothing to do with the forgery. Those are facts. They are clearly set forth in the Hitchens article I linked the last time. You can ignore them all you want, but it just makes you look more irrational. My last post on this, so shout “forgery” to your heart’s content.

The president quoted a British paper in his SOTU address. Condi said so. It was a forgery. Condi said so.

He wouldn’t have unilaterally dropped missile defense. He wouldn’t have done the apology tour or the reset nonsense. I feel fairly comfortable he would not have made every wrong choice in every Middle East crisis (failing to support Iranian protesters, the Syrian debacle, abandoning our ally in Egypt, turning on momar in Libya after he gave up his WMD, Benghazi, etc). I can’t think of a single country we have better relations with since Obama was elected. That bungling has consequences, as the WaPo explained.

In a state of tranquillity, wealth, and luxury, our descendants would forget the arts of war* and the noble activity and zeal which made their ancestors invincible. Every art of corruption would be employed to loosen the bond of union which renders our resistance formidable. When the spirit of liberty, which now animates our hearts and gives success to our arms*, is extinct, our numbers will accelerate our ruin and render us easier victims to tyranny. If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquillity of servitude than the animating contest of freedom—go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen!

* Note that Adams and the Founding Fathers believed they were engaged in a defensive war against tyranny.
