Graham Accuses GOP Voters of Racism: ‘Visceral,’ ‘Irrational’ Hatred of Obama
TheHill.com ^ | 12 December 2015 | Caitlin Yilek

Republican presidential candidate Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) says GOP front-runner Donald Trump is doing so well in the polls because nearly half of Republican primary voters think President Obama is a Kenyan-born Muslim.

“Well there’s about 40 percent of the Republican primary voter who believes that Obama was born in Kenya and is a Muslim,” Graham told Boston Herald Radio on Friday, according to BuzzFeed News.

“There’s just a dislike for President Obama that is visceral. It’s almost irrational,” Graham added. Graham said Trump will not get 270 electoral votes needed to win the presidency if he doesn’t grow support with the Hispanic community.

Maybe someone needs to buy him the same exercise machine that tuned up Harry Reid?
Maybe that is what it will take.

I have not paid attention to SC politics, but it seems someone needs to gather like minded conservatives in SC and spend a couple years educating the people in the state.
Maybe it works, maybe it doesn’t but it is worth the effort.

It certainly is a visceral hatred, but tell me, Leslie, what’s so irrational about it?

I would put Linseed Graham-Cracker in the same chamber pot with the Jug-Eared, Marxist Wonder Boy. Does that make me a racist?

We were forced to watch that little ferret on CSPAN last night while waiting on the Trump rally to start. Lindseed was addressing a small group in NH. He actually trashed Trump to the point that he said he would rather see Hillary in the Whitehouse. Unbelievable. He got tepid applause. Then off camera I could hear him telling people “yeh the Saudis are coming around they are going to let women drive and blah blah bah” What a crock.

What a clown. Soetoro is worthy of our continued and unrelenting scorn, derision and disgust. He is the very thing we are running against! Your damn right my hatred is visceral, Linda, or maybe your ok with Obama wiping his arse with the constitution, America, and everything we have ever stood for..

Well, now we know that Barry has blackmailed Lyndsey about his homoness.

if he is referring to me, one of the few times in his life he is correct. Mere words cannot describe my hatred of Obama.

Lindsey, I plead guilty as charged.

The overwhelming evidence points to him being either a muslim or an atheist who sympathizes with muslims.

There is no evidence of when or where he was born. Kenya? 2 different hospitals in Hawaii? Somewhere else?

I wouldn’t go so far to say that I hate him, but I certainly despise him. It’s visceral, but definitely not irrational. I have many rational reasons to despise him. He provides new reasons on almost a daily basis. I agree it’s appropriate to hate evil, but I am allowing for the .00000001% chance that he is redeemable. That’s between him and God.

At any rate, Graham and the liberals he takes his cues from are the ones displaying hatred and irrationality 24/7. (Check out DU, HuffPo, or any similar site to see the display of rational arguments and “love” toward anyone who disagrees with them.)
