Mrs. Graham, that's why the Founders, in their great wisdom, chose to have our laws made by elected representantives rather than military commanders. If Lindsey wants a military dictatorship, I'm sure she'll be well-received at her new home in Pakistan.
I would love to see Mark Steyn debate Lindsey.What a slaughter that would be.
First off, Petraeus has NO business condemning a private citizen exercising free political speech on American soil. He is way out of line and has apparently forgotten that part of his oath about defending the U.S. Constitution.
Next, Goober needs to put his fascist shovel down before he digs himself any deeper into his hole.
Moron.
There is no defense for your seditious moral equivalence, Graham. Resign now. You’re a disgrace.
GRAHAM: Not really.
This exchange shows why Lindsey Graham is not fit to hold public office. End of story.
General Petraeus said. If this is important enough to him to issue a statement, then it ought to be important enough for us in government to listen to what he has to say.
Petraeus is a commander in the military, luckily America is not yet run by the military. However, I want be surprised at any moment to hear an announcement stating we are now under military rule.
Shut up pussy.
The only reasonable explanation for this is that the Carolina Weeping Pansy has no principles.
Welcome to the generation of illiterate and ill-informed grads.
If Obama (and his wrecking crew) gets his way there will be no America.
Free speech being limited to promote Islam and leave it’s growth unabated?
“Most people do not recognize that what happens in a mosque is sedition. Pure and simple. Islam is not just a “religion”, it is a cult. Larger than that though, it is a political system, it is it’s own government, a economic system (which includes funding new mosque construction), it’s judicial…all wrapped up in the word sharia. This is inclusive of its military (jihadis) all rolled into one with one intent …and that is to rule wherever they take root. It is an invasive, systemic infection looking to take over the host once it has quantum.
This is not a “religion”, but something that cloaks itself in those terms so it should not be given the same treatment contemplated under the first amendment. The Koran’s Sharia rules are to consume whatever government there is wherever it goes. Islam is political, and it’s goal is to supplant and replace. Globally.”
Supplant and replace? That is a direct threat to the American constitution.
Innocent religion? ~~~ NOT!
Graham hiding behind Petraeus’ skirts.
Clearly our mission to win the hearts and minds of barbarians is failing. It was doomed to failure from the start.
we don’t overcome our enemies by restraining ourselves, we overcome our enemies by making sure they fear us.
The General is willing to carry the water for the fool in the oval office and it seems Graham is a willing accomplice.
Did anyone bother to tell old switch hitter gramnesty, that the Constitution says the peoples representatives set policy and law and not some halfass general, talking above his pay grade. If I were his boss the good general would be headed for retirement. He has already lost this war it is just a matter of admitting it.
Mr./Miss/Mrs Graham, How many Americans and others were killed by Muslims before the Koran went Krispy??
i may not agree with what you say, but i will defend to the death, your right to say it.
or defend to your death, your right to say it.
or don’t say it.

Lindsey is completely incoherent here.
Some sort of advanced gay dementia seems to have set in.
Time for the old girl to retire to Fire Island or something.
Can't tell if he still wants to ban Koran burning or not. Hiding behind "protect the troops" won't work.
Guess the heat over his loony, Muslim-pandering is too much and he (or his handlers) felt he had to say something. Don't think this will help him any. When can the good people of South Carolina get rid of this guy?
Gotta love Mark Steyn. Looks like he is singlehandedly gonna end Lindsey's career. Next I suppose will be Senate action to ban/deport Mark Steyn.
What a loser - his response isn’t a response, its muddle of a politicians reply.
