The People are Beginning to Demand Paul-Like Reps. [Graham jeered, asked when he will join Specter]
Young Americans for Liberty ^ | 2009-10-13

Posted on 10/13/2009 8:34:12 PM PDT by rabscuttle385

If there's anything Lindsey Graham does for the Republican party, it's that he reminds his constituents that political principles are more important than winning.

In these videos, Graham simply has no shame as he continues to defy principle for compromise in the name of "winning." Since when did morality become all about winning? Regardless, the last time I checked Mr. Moderate John McCain didn't exactly excite voters in last year's presidential race other than to vote against Democrats. Honestly, I'd rather have one Republican in office who actually stood behind the Constitution than a super majority made up of two face Graham-clowns.

Nothing puts a bigger smile on my face than watching a gym full of people yelling at a neocon that they demand a congressman like Ron Paul who follows the Constitution. The highlight, however, has to be where one gentlemen asks Senator Graham when he's going to pull an Arlen Specter and switch parties. Caution: watch your volume level, the crowd gets rather rowdy when cheering for Constitutional declarations!

I don’t think most of us out there who are yelling at Linseed Graham and his ilk are doing so because we are a bunch of PaulTards. We are Reagan conservatives. Ron Paul opposed about 2/3 of Reagan’s agenda, and was not a Republican during the 80s.

Follow it??? How about a sign that our elected even know there is an actual constitution. And explain why they agree or disagree with it, or why it doesnt matter. We dont even get that.

And when you've got something more than stupid labels and name-calling to get that kind of response out of Graham, let us know.

Ron Reagan was a great leader, but he was also a man of his time. That was then, this is now. There is no Ronald Reagan on the horizon.

Lindsey is not a Conservative. He is an unapologetic Obamaphile. He’s also an unapologetic socialist. And like Obama, he suffers delusions of grandeur.

Of course not. But it is convenient to use that polarizing label to freeze and isolate all of us into one lumpen mass.

This is just Lefty Lindsey’s dress rehearsal for 2012, when Palin will be painted with the same ‘crazy’ brush that they use to smear Ron Paul and Glenn Beck.

Nice video, Graham is working with Kerry on ‘energy independence’. That means BIG energy taxes we pay, he doesnt.

Graham says “we have to fix America’s problems by working with democrats”. That means we may have to pay huge energy taxes , to get some limited offshore drilling.

You know McCain, Graham and GWB cut an energy deal with democrats in 2005 or 2006 that mandated ethanol, with no drilling. Look how well that worked! No one asks Graham about that bi-partison sellout. How about No child Left behind with no vouchers???,

I can't wait to read this puss-bag's obit, and how his body was found 9 days later because nobody ever came to visit him.

I can also visualize the burial service with 4 people attending: Wife, 2 kids, and the head of the lobbyist firm that paid him off in life.

True, many of them are dumbed down pubic school grads. McCain and Graham immediately come to mind. But I don't think the entire lot of them are dumbed down quiet enough yet to seek such a course. Yet still, I can only think of one Republican Congress critter who would be adamantly opposed to such a course. Naturally, he would be the lone Congressman who played a major role in organizing and supporting the tea parties.

There is of course another problem. The lone Congressman associated with freedom causes, tea parties, and strict adherence to the Constitution, is a quack Doctor and a Board Certified whacko. /s

Graham: "If you don't like it, you can leave"

There you have it. McCain and Graham are telling us if we don't like the rino tactics of reaching across the aisle to stroke socialism, then we can leave.

Naw. I say Graham is the one to leave the Conservative party. And from the evidence in this video, he will be obliged to do so whether he wants to or not. I can't wait til the next time he's up to bat. He's toast. The Conservatives in South Carolina finally see him for what he is. A true liberal masquerading as conservative while wearing a blue blazer, dockers, and Bass weejuns. Yo Lindsey, you're outted, and you're definetly out.

Well that explains how Grahm keeps his seat. The people who cared enough to show up at his town hall meeting to raise cain are not Republicans - they vote third party. Unlike Snowe where her voters are liberals like her, in Grahm’s case you could get a real conservative in that district if you worked together to run a conservative and sink the bum.

Third party strategy should be for areas where the Republican is being supported by liberals in vote. Otherwise you will make more headway removing the Rino and putting in a conservative. Ron Paul need some like in power in the Republican Party and we should give him that when we can.

I have read Ron Paul since no one knew or cared who he was. I first heard of him around 1981, when I was working in the US Senate. Back then he had a speech or two inserted into the Congressional Record every day. Some of them were very good. Some of them were off the wall crazy. What I can tell you with absolute certainty is that if we as a country had followed Ron Paul's prescriptions, it would have taken a very short time for the Soviets to win the cold war, and we would be a weak colony of slaves in its empire. His economic prescriptions were juvenile, too.

I check him out every now and then, and I don't see that he has changed at all. Still a nut.

So, whether you agree with me or with Ron Paul, just know that I have read his work and his ideas more thoroughly and for a longer period of time than just about anyone on the planet. I come by my views honestly, by using research and facts to form an opinion. Follow him if you wish, but it is not just that he has a small following that allows his followers to be labeled, but that his prescriptions would lead to utter disaster in so many ways.

Just because we are now trying to forfeit the victory doesn't mean we didn't win it.

It's interesting, actually--the Soviets planted the cancer in our body politic that is now killing us, even after we have defeated the Soviets. They created the organizations and game plan to bring us down, they just didn't last long enough to enjoy it. We still have time to prevent the death of America, but not much time.

In any event, we could never have had the victory, or any semblance of a decent economy like we had due to Reagan, had we followed Ron Paul's insistent advice instead. Like the libs, he was wrong then and he's wrong now, but they both want us to follow them anyway.

Cool story bro! What was the craziest “off the wall” speech or insert that you remember?

I trust the taxpaying people of the Texas Gulf Coast know what they’re doing when they send the good Doctor back to DC, whenever he feels the need to improve the world all those babies he delivers will grow up in.

It’s funny that the Dems won’t even bother running anyone against him; Dr. Paul’s district is as deep red as it gets. They know better, yet GOP hacks like Peden persist.

>small following

Dude, you saw how many MeetUps and money bombs where set off for him. The grassroots were set on fire. They bought him A BLIMP! Only Palin and The One have larger fan clubs.

Do you believe Larry McDonald, Ron Paul’s mentor, was crazy too?

I was a big Larry McDonald fan at the same time that I was following Ron Paul's delusions. I remember being pretty shocked when the Russian shot him down, and I would not be completely surprised if they did it on purpose, although I think the evidence is that they did not shoot it down because of him.

I read Ron Paul almost daily for about three years. He wasn't a Republican then. I'm not in the mood for going back to old speeches and dissecting them to get in a lively Ron Paul discussion with you. Been there, done that. Live your life, enjoy, be a Paulista if you wish. I don't care.
