My God, Lindsey Graham is out of his mind.

[spanone]

On the Russert dog & pony show.

He's talking about WINNING THE WAR. He's talking about starting over in Iraq.
He's talking about NO end to this war. More Troops. More Troops. More Troops.

Our political leaders (repubs) don't give a flying fuck what the voters think.

[illinoisprogressive]

1. Saw that too? He is McCain's lapdog that is why

[Tellurian]

24. Joe Biden OUT of his MIND!

I was waiting for Biden to do High 5's w/ Graham, his friend.

[spanone]

28. I didn't see anything of the sort. They were diametrically opposed to the surge.

[MH1]

36. Biden opposes escalation.

I don't think it would be the headline on his PAC site if he didn't.

37. These politicians have lost the moral authority to send young boys

to their deaths. I predict, that if they conscript our boys, without first nationalizing oil, there will be two battlefronts to fight.

[Hubert Flottz]

2. I think he's into the pain and suffering shit!

[Jackpine Radical]

3. Too bad it's somebody else's pain & suffering.

I'd be happy to contemplate LG hurting & sweating if he didn't take any non-consenting people along with him.

[Hubert Flottz]

6. He likes to watch!

[NNN0LHI]

4. Lindsey should return to his previous job of racking balls at a pool hall n/t

[A wise Man]

5. I'd like to know

"What the hell are they trying to win".

[madokie]

23. That is what I want to know too wise man. for they don't want us to know, it's the oil

and good to see you here

[Benhurst]

7. I think he's banged his head on

the inside of the closet door one time too many.

[NoodleyAppendage]

8. Have you ever seen him in committee? He's textbook ADHD.

If we can substantiate the early symptoms/signs prerequisite for ADHD diagnosis, then he's nailed for having the problem. Recently I saw him in a committee meeting, during which he vigorously rocked back and forth in his chair and paid little attention to the proceeding until it was his turn at the mike. His motor behavior was certainly "agitated" in quality...reminded me of a 10-year old with little impulse control and suffering from understimulation issues.

11. That's not all he's 'textbook'...

This is why these guys hate Pelosi and her "San Francisco Values" so much. They have had a 'reaction formation'...

[truth2power]

9. Yes. Yes he is! I'm listening to that steaming pile as I type this..

How many of Graham's relatives are on the ground in Iraq? If any are of age, suit 'em up and send 'em over. Oh, and BTW, Lindsey looks pretty agile. Get his sorry ass on the next troop transport out!! He'd crap himself if you dropped him in Baghdad (outside the Green Zone, that is).

Whatta tool! Blech... :puke:

[Connie_Corleone]

10. He wouldn't tell Russert what would happen if the surge didn't work.

To me it sounds like he wants the troops there forever so the region won't blow up.

[spanone]

12. Or at least until they can figure out how to blame the Democrats...

[babylonsister]

13. He's walking in lockstep; has this guy ever been involved in a war?

I know he's a reserve JAG officer, but is he a desk jockey? It seems so. He's following the leader for better or worse.

[PCIntern]

14. Gee, you'd almost think that maybe

someone had the 'goods' on this guy. Whaddya think?

[spanone]

15. Cheney would wiretap his own people to get them to fall in line. Evil is as Evil does.

[PCIntern]

17. The only people allowed to advance in the Rethug Party

are people who are vulnerable. Why do you think they allowed the moran child molesters to keep their jobs until they're outed? If you had a straight-up guy or gal, you'd have no control over them. They might actually vote their consciences. But if you promote people who have a 'wing down', then they have to toe the mark. Everytime. Or it's 'coitins'.

[babylonsister]

34. I'd never thought of that, but he does fit that

mold. For a supposedly bright man, he's acting incredibly clueless.

[cwydro]

16. Pathetic

But no doubt he is saying exactly what the voters in his state think.:eyes:

[proud2BlibKansan]

18. I saw that!

And let me tell you I am no Joe Biden fan but he made so much sense today while Graham looked like a bumbling idiot.

[spanone]

19. Joe does like to hear himself talk, but he did make a lot of sense today. IMHO

[Mr_Jefferson_24]

20. Nothing more chilling than his "Fifth Column" rhetoric...

...If it were up to him we'd already have compulsory reeducation centers (that's concentration camps to you and me) all over the country filled with ordinary citizens.

[Bluerthanblue]

21. "we need to hold the generals accountable for their work product"...

he says, they've had two years to succeed- and they haven't-

'2 years ago I was over there and we went 'rug-shopping' today we go over there and we are under attack' (not verbatim, but as close as i remember)-

He spoke non-stop, hardly taking time to breathe with a trembling voice... either he's hyped up on caffeine, nervous as hell, or about to blow-- non stop rehetoric... I hear sincere desperation and fear of losing control.

I haven't seen him this agitated before....

[spanone]

22. Lying is painful. Lindsey is in a lot of pain.

[flashlighter]

25. what I don't get is

if he belives that we shouldn't let the people who have had a "failed plan" for two years ( the Generals), how the hell does he think Bush and the R's should be allowed to make decisions?????

[spanone]

26. He backs HIS man, Bush*. He's a loyalist regardless of how many die.

Winning elections is more important than lives.

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

31. Welcome to DU!

Hope you continue to shine your light here, flashlighter! :hi:

[flordehinojos]

27. lindsey graham may have been having a few too many beers and a few too many beer battered fried

chicken.

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

29. And where is he going to get those troops?

I can see it now-1 soldier in South Korea. 1 soldier in Germany. 1 soldier in Japan....etc. etc....with the rest being in Iraq, even the doctors who are trying to sew up those horribly injured by the war.

[spanone]

30. Well, I hear the Army is calling up Dead Troops. That should work.

:sarcasm:

[kentuck]

32. Lindsey wants to be McCains running mate...

everybody knows it.

[babylonsister]

35. That's news to me but explains Graham's hawkish attitude. nt

[mtnsnake]

33. At least he's consistent

He's been consistently out of his fucking mind about this forever. He's the epitome of Republican arrogance.
