Lindsey needs to get his history right.

The drafting of the Constitution was contentious and the media of the day was very outspoken and highly critical.

The Framers were a bit a passionate lot who argued and even engaged in fights over the drafts.

What a moron Graham is.

The purpose of Loveable Lindsey is to make SC long for the return of "Storm Thunder".

Appears Lindsey has chosen satire as a campaign theme.

Pissing off John McCain should be every real conservatives duty.

Yeah, pretty sure that’s the guy. I think Hannity lives in NY-2.

Well, it's hard to describe it as a "duty" when it's both effortless and so much fun. Juan "Lettuce" McPantsStain will hate you just for being right about stuff. You don't actually have to DO anything.

LOL! Yeah, right? Just being McCain should be insult enough.

According to Wikipedia, the JBS was founded in Dec. 1958. That sounds about right. I was in grade school in the late 1950s and my mother was very much involved in anti-communism; she never was a member of the JBS but had a copy of The Politician (and a lot of other anti-communist books). I think it was a pretty new organization at the time.

I honestly don’t get all the arrows aimed at Hannity on a lot of FR posts. I don’t know anyone on TV who gives more time and respect to Ted Cruz, Rubio, Scott Walker, Perry, and the conservative leaders in govt. He has reported heavily on the border crisis and illegal immigration, the racial division Obama has created, Hillary’s corruptions, and provides lots of useful reporting from a strong, conservative perspective. Yes, he likes to have some aggravating jerks on his show like Austan Goolsby, Leo Terrell and Tamara Holder, but his show puts out a lot of solid information that is lacking in other places.

Lindsey Graham seems to me a resentful guy who’s hiding a secret that everyone knows and always feels like he has to prove he belongs. There are worse Republicans than Graham but he is not one I would support for president. I credit him for his work as an impeachment manager back in the Clinton days. He was tough and determined and maybe he thought that earned him more than a promotion to the Senate. I don’t know, but I am just trying hard to obey Reagan’s 11th Commandment. We really need to show some wisdom like Reagan at times like this. We cannot bear another loss next year.

"So, you're at Philadelphia Hall, you've got satellite trucks parked outside," Graham said. "You know, Ben Franklin comes outside and Rachel Maddow and Sean Hannity jump on him, 'Don't give in, Ben.' Just think how hard it is in today's 24/7 news cycle, talk radio, cable television and money [in politics]. There is a group telling you to say no about everything.”

Senator Graham has a mental defect that impairs his judgment to the degree that he apparently is psychologically incapable of fulfilling the requirements of his office.

Either that or he is being black mailed, like Joe Scarborough.

Hannity still likes Peter King, even after King’s going off the deep end these past couple of years?

I hear in the lifetime original movie on lindsey graham, he’ll be played by Jane Lynch.

I think the last time I heard Hannity talking to King and pre-extolling him during the intro before he brought him on air was within the last year. Not absolutely sure, but am inclined to think that.

If you support liberal Republicans and liberal spending you just might be a liberal. You’re free to characterize it any way you’d like, depending on what you’re smoking.

In a time of universal deceit polarization is a wonderful thing. That way we know that there is opposition to tyrranical rule.

Next he will blame Sean Hannity for the riots in Baltimore instead of Obama. Lindsey is the typical coward elmer fudd cop. Just like the Bushes, too busy enacting hate crime legislation or domestic violence and yet saying Islam is peace and never daring to free women abused by islam, despite the State abilities to sue on behalf of women
