Graham leading the charge to enshrine the Terrorists/Murder's right to object to free speech.

This guy needs replaced. Any any other co-sponsors of such legislation and of course any one who would vote for such a thing.

said Congress might need to explore the need to limit some forms of freedom of speech

Any such move would be unconstitutional.

“Sen. Lindsey Graham said Congress might need to explore the need to limit some forms of freedom of speech, in light of Tennessee pastor Terry Jones’ Quran burning, and how such actions result in enabling U.S. enemies.”

This is absolutely outrageous! We should start an effort to have a mass Quran burning! This is total Bullcr@p!

if he believes there’s a connection he must look into Hollywood.

His thinking means Hollywood has killed far more.

Leslie Graham is in his last term in South Carolina.

Dingy Harry why don't you hold hearings on Muslim killing Innocent people

Turbin Dicky can asked his witnesses why Muslims feel the need to kill people over burning a book of fiction.

I have a proposal to limit the 1st Amendment. Any person elected to federal office who talks about limiting the 1st Amendment rights of his fellow citizens gets sent to Leavenworth for 30 years.

Hey Graham and Reid, what needs to be limited (eliminated) in our country are murdering radical Muslims and Sharia Law.

Leave the First Amendment alone!

I cannot believe the people of South Carolina reelected that idiot (Lucy Graham) to the Senate in 2008.

Libs are offended by a Koran burning, but have no problem shredding the US Constitution.

Though I think burning Korans is boorish and offensive, the Tennessee pastor should claim that he was just acting as a performanance artist.

In fact, he ought to apply for a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. When he gets rejected, he ought to sue the NEA for religious discrimination. If a fair justice system could exist in a corrupt political system, it would be a cinch to prove his case in court.

I’ll burn a free qran. But won’t waste a dime buying one.

How does burning a Koran "enable" U.S. Enemies? Were they unable to commit acts of violence before a koran was burned? is Burning a Koran an illegal action which gives muslims the right under international law to kill people?

The courts have ruled that free speech doesn't include the right to words which immediately incite people in a way to create harm. Thus "fire" in a crowded theatre, or burning crosses on your lawn.

That has never applied to actions taken days later, or actions taken by a foriegn country.

I do hope they have this hearing, because it will reveal the depths to which our representatives have sunk in appeasement of the enemy.
