Lindsey Graham: I Won’t Let Ron Paul Hijack the GOP [YouTube Funs!]
American Conservative Magazine ^ | October 13th, 2009 | Jack Hunter

Posted on 10/13/2009 7:44:45 PM PDT by Palin Republic

This isn’t the best audio but more evidence of South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham’s complete dismissal of Ron Paul’s adherence to rigid constitutional government. Notice in the first video that instead of addressing the woman’s criticism head on, Graham simply asks her who she voted for in the presidential election. When she replied “Chuck Baldwin” Graham then attempts to marginalize her based on her support for the Constitution Party, slamming Paul in the process.

The following took place 10/12/09 at a town hall meeting in Greenville, SC:

BTTT Best post to the thread so far!!

I would add, HOW DARE HE talk to his constituents like that? If that isn’t his true colors coming through I don’t know what is. Conservatives DO NOT speak to constituents like that, and they most certainly do not yell at them! That isn’t even becoming a RINO, much less Conservative.

Boot him SC!!!

If that is a choice, I’ll take Ron Paul (keep him off foreign affairs and military committees) any day.

Is Graham up for re-election next year, and is there a Rep willing to challenge him?

I bashed Graham and Ronpaul. That makes me an equal opportunity basher.

Exactly what did I say that was wrong?

Both belong in straightjackets.

Lindsey is a paranoid weenie.
No chance nutbar Ronpaul is gonna hijack the GOP.

Just because Lindsey is paranoid doesn't mean his fears are unfounded:


Cry more, liberal Republicrats!

If the law is on your side, pound on the law; if the facts are on your side, pound on the facts; if neither is on your side, pound on the table. Lindshay has no facts and no controlling legal authority.

Lindsey Graham is determined to run traditional libertarian and constitutionalist conservatives out of the GOP.

It's much more than Graham, too...I would say anyone who has anything to do w/ the inner-workings of the national (& some state) GOP as well. The GOP is infested w/ internationalist Neocons who wish to drive constitutional conservatives out of the public square.

“Both belong in straightjackets.”

Graham belongs in a prison cell.

Paul is not crazy. Big government Republicans are crazy.

As Rush would say, Lindsay, look at me. Look.at.me. You are never going to be nominated for POTUS and you’re NEVER going to be elected POTUS, so sit down and close your mouth.

Jim “Waterloo” DeMint is awesome and will make a superb Chief of Staff for Pres. Palin!

He’ll make Rahm look like a wilted pansy when it comes to slapping around Congress.

The first thing I would like to tell you, you're coming into the beltway -- inside the beltway -- and as we're all human beings, and we all are susceptible to human nature, and we all want to be liked; we all want to be loved; and you all want to live in surroundings which are not hostile. But inside the beltway for people like us this is not possible. And so sometimes to avoid the hostility, we say things and then begin do things designed to gain the approval of those who are hostile toward us. I want to warn you against it. I want to warn you: you will never ever be their friends. They don't want to be your friends.
-- Rush Limbaugh to the Freshmen Congressmen in 1994

Lindsey Graham sat in that room and ignored Rush. He's just another beltway creature now. And the government media who are fawning over him today will slit his throat in a heart beat when it suits them, and he will have no one to defend him.

No Lindsey we are not to let YOU hijack the Republican Party.

I'm sorry to say this, but I think it's too late, considering the big-government Neocons that the GOP has nominated for President over the last 25 yrs..

Ronpaul should be institutionalized!

Lindsey should be put in a cell with Roman Polanski.
