Whereas, it is the responsibility and right of this Executive Committee, and of all Republicans, to speak in support of, and to act in the defense of, the long-established and fundamental principles of the Republican party as contained in the South Carolina Republican Party Platform; and;

Whereas, when any official elected to any position as a Republican repeatedly acts in contravention of these principles, it is the duty of all South Carolina Republicans, including this body, to protect and defend these principles by stating publicly its disapproval of that official’s actions, especially where the matters involved are fundamental and not open to reasonable dispute among those who are in good faith general agreement with the fundamental principles of the party platform; and;

Whereas, when any official continues to engage repeatedly in a course of conduct that violates fundamental principles of the South Carolina Republican Platform, even after such actions have been publicly called to his attention, it is the responsibility of all Republicans, including this body, to take such remedial measures as are reasonably available to them, always placing the interests of the People and our Principles ahead of any Party or Personal interests that may appear to be in temporary conflict with those interests; and;

1. Voted to confirm Obama radical appointment to Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection: In July of 2013, Senator Graham voted with the Democrats to confirm Richard Cordray, a noted leftist promoter of aggressive economic regulation, as head of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau

Yes he did and is expected to win the election again. He will, if enough South Carolinians vote for him, vis a vis the other candidates who will be on the ballot come November.

Many of the enumerated offenses apply to too many Republicans.

I detest the bride of McCain, but isn’t it rather strange that they can work this up against Graham for doing the GOPe’s bidding, but can’t work up anything against Obama?

Pathetic...

After hearing of the “anal jihad” in Syria, Graham immediately booked a flight to the Mid East.

I've always suspect Graham of being "light in the loafers".

“1. To vote for Lindsey Graham”
“2. To NOT vote for Lindsey Graham”
“3. To vote for one of the other candidates.”

This doesn’t really tell me anything. What parties/candidates are to be on the ballot?
