I think we all understand why Lindsey would think this.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Who gives a sh*t what Lindsey Graham thinks....

If he wants to persecute bloggers, let him amend the Bill of Rights or go f*** himself.

Oh... I get it now. I have to be a journalist in order to be given protection under the first amendment.

Clearly, the internet blogs have taken a front seat to providing a venue for all American’s to express their opinions without reproach.

Or am I missing something from Durbin and Graham here?

I’m sure the British wanted to silence the bloggers like Tom Paine too.

Of course they do. However, Graham doesn’t deserve re-election.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

That there freedom of speech dealie covers a multitude of sins if that there freedom of the ‘press’, don't.

what a dolt 'she' is

The 1st Amendment isn’t about journalism. A journalist has no more right to free speech than a garbage collector. The moment the government determines who is a journalist and who isn’t, journalism will be nothing but propaganda for government.

SC Republicans, please please get a constitutional conservative to run against him this upcoming election. Lindsey Graham knows most of the information that we deserve is published through means of the web. Fire him, SC!
