Sen. Graham to Republicans: 'Face Reality That ObamaCare Cannot Be Stopped'
FOX News ^ | Oct 13, 2013 | FOX News Insider

Posted on 10/13/2013 4:32:59 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) has called President Obama a “pathetic leader” for his lack of involvement in negotiations to end the government shutdown. He slammed the president’s unwillingness to compromise with Republicans as “immature.”

Today on America’s News HQ, Graham told anchor Doug McKelway, “For [Republicans] to suggest to the American people that we could defund ObamaCare or delay it for a year by shutting down the government, I think was unrealistic.”

With the debt limit just four days away, Sen. Graham said, “I’m not going to vote for any deal coming out of the Senate that doesn’t have a reasonable chance of getting a majority of House Republicans understanding that defunding and delaying ObamaCare is a bridge too far.”

He digs deeper and deeper. I have been happy to see how the flailing economy has exposed the true Democrat party these past few years. It seems to have a similar effect on exposing the idiotic RINOs. Toss LG down the steps of Congress with all the others!!

Reminds me of an old joke....

Why are streets of Paris lined with trees? Because the Germans like to march in the shade.

Commie girlymen like Linda make me want to puke. Our immigration enforcement laws and the Second Amendment to the Bill of Rights can be stopped by the DemocRATS but communism can't be stopped by the Republicans. That SOB isn't an American, he's a crybaby.

Prohibition was stopped. It may have taken 13 years and a Constitutional amendment to do it, but they did it.

And an amendment is harder to do than repealing a law.

It is more clear today than ever that the GOPe is a total farce, and we have been fools for thinking they have any intention of speaking for conservative America.

We need a new party now.

It needs to have the proverbial stake driven in its heart now. Congress knows how to “fix” disastrous legislation by piling on “fixes” that make it even more costly and complicated without actually killing it. See, for example, the IRS code.

Graham is a weak, pathetic pantywaist. The House has the power of the purse. They can stop this thing if they hold the line.

Within the ranks of the Republican Party there be traitors to the Constitution.
Lindsay Graham, John McCain, Peter King --- and every other damn RINO Quisling attempting to undermine the efforts to defund ObamaCare.
ObamaCare can be stopped.
ObamaCare must be stopped.
Else the American Dream is essentially over.
