Ravenel: “Lindsey Graham Is A Reality Show We Can’t Turn Off”

EDISTO, SC – Lowcountry businessman and independent U.S. Senate candidate Thomas Ravenel responded today to incumbent “Republican” Lindsey Graham’s assertion that running for the U.S. Senate was “not a reality television show.”

Ravenel, star of the Bravo TV show ‘Southern Charm, said Graham was part of a much costlier “reality TV” show.

“The difference between my reality TV show and Lindsey Graham’s reality TV show is simple: his is costing taxpayers trillions of dollars – and thousands of American lives,” Ravenel said. “And unlike my show, you can’t change the channel when his show comes on – and you can’t stop paying for it either.”

Ravenel added, “I’ll take ‘Southern Charm’ over Lindsey Graham’s ‘Adventures in Nation Building’ any day of the week, and so would most taxpayers.”

Ravenel said he would be launching a new competition on his website – www.RavenelforSenate.com – in which South Carolinians could submit their own names for Graham’s reality show.

I can’t stand Cokehead McBastardsirer but he sure just handed Graham his ass in his response. This race might be fun after all.

Uh, no he didn’t. We must be reading different press releases. Strange how this release was written in precisely the same smarmy, sarcastic tone as are most of the FITS pieces. Pure coincidence…

Funny and entertaining, to be sure, with just a *tinge* of sadness around the edges because I am about half convinced that TR and FITS really think he’s in this thing.

Watching youtubes of Graham defending criminal illegal aliens says it all. The man is wacked out, I tell you. Totally insane. And Graham’s friend, Nancy Pelosi, is now saying we should treat all illegal aliens like “baby Jesus”!!!! YES!!! There is video of here saying this. Graham is just as nuts as her.

Uhhhhhh, no. Let’s just wait and see how that “most taxpayers” thing works out in November (although that’ll be “most voters,” but you get my drift). I don’t think 6-8% can be spun into “most,” even in FITSlandia (FITSastan?) (FITSville?)

Senator Graham is a well established southern gentleman who is standing up for the people of eastern Ukraine in calling for a new global war against Russia. We should head his advise and begin re-instating the draft so that under-educated, young men from around South Carolina, from poor families, can be drafted and sent to Ukraine and other regions to die fighting these Communist-era thugs. Lindsey is a fine decorated combat veteran, and he so we know he knows – what he’s babbling about.

I Hate Two Faced Graham July 22, 2014 at 10:58 pm

Graham has no children … Graham has no family values … Graham is a war monger … Graham cuddles and supports illegal aliens .. Graham does not represent South Carolina voters … Graham will not listen to voters and what they want … Graham refuses to represent voters in South Carolina as they see fit …. Graham thinks he knows it all …. Graham has many times called the citizens of South Carolina disparaging names because they do not agree with his gestapo rule mentality …. .. ..
You want evidence that Graham is deranged wacked out pig shit? Just go to Youtube and type in the search engine his name …. You will find countless videos of him talking shit and cutting down South Carolinians.
Many of you do not know, but over 65% of the nation HATES Graham. It is easily reflected all across the internet on 1000s of political websites and in the comment sections of media website stories. Sadly, South Carolina is so ignorant, they keep voting for this trash.
Ravenel will destroy Graham in town hall debates. All Graham has is a drug conviction? Pfftt! So what. There is mega tons of hard facts to bring Graham down with. He is not a father to anyone. But his daddy is certainly satan, himself.

Social Security math 101. Currently funded at 77% of current load. 17 years worth of baby boomers yet to retire. Projected to be funded at less than 44% when current 50 year-olds retire at 67. Adjust for inflation and the answer is:
