Lindsey Graham slammed Rand Paul last night for holding a filibuster against Barack Obama’s domestic drone policy.

Lindsey made the remarks after dinner with Barack Obama.

“This idea that we’re going to use a drone to attack a citizen in a cafe in America is ridiculous.”

Ms. Lindsay and his boyfriend, McStupid, don’t care much for the constitution. They are in bi-partisan agreement with their global communist friends across the aisle that they have progressed to the throne of the global dictatorship. The only thing between them and Utopia is the American people - terrorists all.

I hope Ms. Lindsay has lots of free time after his next election. He has made some outrageous anti-American statements against the constitution and American people that can and I hope, will, be used against him. What a wacko!

There is something wrong with a government that won’t promise that it won’t kill citizens without due process.

...and ELECTED representatives who fail too see the unconstitutionality of such a doctrine that is being presented.

It’s “Ridiculous” to think a sitting US pResident would go to bed without making any effort to save or even inquiring about the status of 34-36 citizens being attacked in Benghazi...

...oh, never mind....

Does this mean that Lindsey Graham, is all for giving the President the power to KILL any American, anywhere and anytime he chooses? It sure appears that way.

I’m sure Rand Paul wears this criticism from light-in-the-loafers as a badge of honor. I know I would.

Awkward is supporting a Nobel Peace Prize winner who can’t say he won’t kill citizens at will.

“This idea that we’re going to use a drone to attack a citizen in a cafe in America is ridiculous.”

What that dickweed forgets is that 30 years ago Congress said the same thing about Abuse of no Knock Raids and confiscation of property of alleged criminal activities. BEFORE the accused is convicted.

Please make sure your challenger listens to Rush a couple hours a week to get the Dem talking points and learn the appropriate way to respond.

Apparently our guy in Indiana didn’t do that and got gunned down by an MSM ambush.

No, YOU rethink.

Paul did a great thing yesterday and he deserves our appreciation...FOR DOING HIS JOB when no one else would.

But on Hagel, he put on a Kabuki theater display and then DID NOT do his job. He went full GOPe and if we ignore that we deserve another Romney. Paul has a while yet to redeem himself, but if you want to stick your head in the sand about his capitulation, just sit silently and do not complain when the GOP ‘conservatives. continue to act like democrats.

I have already sent him a message this morning telling him what I think about his disdain for Paul’s filibuster and his complicit shredding of the 5th amendment.

So the Kenyan beats the crap out of the Republican house over the sequester and Bush tax cuts and Lindsey arranges a dinner. What a jerk.

Replay of the Chris Christie betrayal.

If, Obama and his fellow travelers think that Americans are expendable, why would Lady Graham think he would be exempt?

Just sayin'.

“This idea that we’re going to use a drone to attack a citizen in a cafe in America is ridiculous.”

Then Sen. “Mc”Graham how about getting rid of the Bill of Rights. If we trust the gov’t not to blow us up then we can trust them to keep their noses out of the press, religion, etc.
