Lindsey Graham offers 1 million to drone victims (snarky, condescending moderate!)
Facebook.com/Primary Lindsey ^ | 4/2/13 | Primary Lindsey

Lindsey is STILL making fun of the filibuster led by Senator Rand Paul with assists from Senators Lee, Cruz and other conservatives. What doesn't he understand about the fact that unlimited power is the opposite of conservatism?

He condes...cendingly offered $1 million to any family of an American struck by a drone. That's cute, but he's still missing the mark on this. None of the conservative Senators think the President is trying to arbitrarily kill Americans. The point is more sophisticated than that, because it's a comment on the necessity of ensuring constitutional limits to power as a preventative method. One of the reasons these things DON'T happen here is because we've historically had a constitutionally limited government. Apparently, that's lost on Lindsey.

Anyway, about that money? We think someone should put forth $1 million to primary Lindsey.

Graham would have been making snarky comments about the revolutionaries wanting representation with their taxation.

Back during the stamp act, Americans looted and burned the homes of those who signed up as Stamp Commissioners. Imagine if our representatives were scared straight that if they failed to represent their constituents, they lives might radically change??

I'm not recommending this...just stating historic facts.

Lindsey is more stupid than I thought:

Poll shows huge support for Rand Paul’s filibuster stance on drone attacks

When Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) filibustered for nearly 13 hours two weeks ago, he had the American people on his side.

A new Gallup poll shows a huge majority of Americans — 79 percent — supported Paul’s position that drone strikes should not be used on American soil against Americans suspected of terrorism. Just 13 percent say it would be okay.

We need a list of the politicians homes, addresses and what vehicles they drive posted. The way some of them azzhat newspapers print gun owners addresses. It might make them re-consider some of their votes.

So, Lindsey has no problem himself being painted teh target then?

Will he change his stand afterwards? ‘Futile but “Effective” ‘?

I live in Boston. I’m well aware of the history. We literally destroyed Governor Hutchinson’s house (he was also chief justice of the superior court).

Is it a coincidence that Senator Graham has become less and less confrontational with the Obama Administration at the same time that the President Obama been evolving on “gay marriage”?
