Lindsey Graham Calls out Unhealthy Obama Hate
CNN ^ | 12/16/16 | Tom LoBianco

Posted on 12/17/2015 8:15:41 AM PST by ek_hornbeck

South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham hit back against the far right wing of his party a day after the CNN Republican debate in Las Vegas, saying Barack Obama "is my President" and calling the anger against him "unhealthy."

"To those people who think Obama's a Muslim who was born in Kenya, I lost you a long time ago," Graham said Wednesday on CNN's "New Day." "There's a dislike of Obama in my party that's unhealthy, there was a dislike for President (George W.) Bush in the Democratic party that was unhealthy. He is my President."

That's our Lindsey. He rushes to the defense of Obama against conservative "hatred," while reserving his own vitriol and bile for his real enemies: conservatives like Ted Cruz and populists like Trump.

"I think he has screwed this up 10 ways to Sunday, but Bush made his fair share of mistakes too," Graham said.

That's some strong criticism coming from Linda. To be fair, he's half-right, Bush was also a screw-up, but for the opposite of the reasons that Linda would give.

Lindsey Graham is a pimple on America’s butt and needs to STFU. Who cares what this little twerp has to say?

I do...because he can always be counted on to provide comic relief. It's hard not to laugh at a guy who's at zero in the polls and still struts around as though he's a major contender in this race.

He is the president but not my president as he doesn’t represent me. In fact, he has called me the enemy, mocked me and told his supporters to “get in my face” because I happen to believe in individual liberty.

... I lost you a long time ago.

Ditto, Lindsey, and the same for the rest of the establishment GOP who sold out our conservative values.

HE lost ME?!

He’s got it bass-ackwards.

How can you NOT despise what BamBam has wrought?

Buh bye, Linda.

Is hating Lindsey healthy?

I think so.

On the contrary - he should keep talking this BS. DC is so corrupt at this point that probably only politician bloodshed is the only thing that would really reform that pustule of a town.

What Ryan is doing, just today for example. How can he lead the conservative party in the US today and agree to the deal he made? I don’t believe for a minute he’s stupid. That leaves corrupt or fatally compromised.

He should resign immediately.

I despise Obama and all who serve him.

GFY, BHO.
And that goes for your little dog Lindsey, too.

Not a word about Lindsey Graham, but the GOPe can’t attack Trump or Cruz enough.

Thanks Lindsey for reminding me how right I am.

Lindsey is someone to be pitied more than hated. I do hate the RNC powers that manage to keep people like him propped up perpetually in the Senate. I’m sure the RNC works hard during the Senate primaries to make sure any conservative challengers to Graham get blacked out and cut off from all PACs.

He's running 0% in the polls, there's your answer.

I don't where Obama was born but to deny he's a muslim is to deny reality. Not only is he a muslim but he is clearly aligned with the most extreme, jihadist branch of islam.
