You have not explained why SC people want this individual in the Senate. I think it is just a lack of knowledge.
Amendment 1 - Freedom of Religion, Press, Expression.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
I do not see anything in there stating, "except where inconvenient to certain politicians or special interest groups, nor during time of conflict with muslims."
It's about time Americans start acting like it.
The Second Amendment is in case people like Lindsey Graham are hard of hearing.
Remember too that DeMint is a big backer of Lindsey; did Lindsey return the favor in 2010, I think he did.
Further, we have not prosecuted this last few conflicts like a war. If it's war, turn the military loose and win it. Beat the enemy into submission. That's how we fight a war.
He'll just put them in his mouth.
“When this war is over, the Japanese language will only be spoken in hell!” - Wm. F. “Bull” Halsey
We can ban Koran burning when the Islamist ban Bible burning... or for that matter when they ban Christian burning or beheading... Oh - that’s not going to happen - oh yeah ...
Has DeMint agreed with the idiot?
Otherwise what does this have to do with anything.
LG is up for reelect in 2012 I believe.
What a moron! Graham is a disgrace.
Dhimmi
Yet ANOTHER discussion on this Terry Jones crap that totally ignores the fact that NO ONE in Afghanistan knew about the burning for 4 days after it happened, UNTIL KARZAI ANNOUNCED IT IN KABUL! Then Imam’s picked it up and whipped Muzzies into a frenzy in Friday prayers. It is Karzai’s fault! Why didn’t this happen in Pakistan like it usually does? Because their gov’t didn’t choose to make it an issue.
Welcome to the Sedition Acts of the Adams administration...or the Sedition Act of the Woodrow Wilson afdministration.
FUL”G”G!!!! >:-(
This will endanger not only our troops around the world, but MY children’s futures! Dear Lord, PLEASE MAKE THESE PEOPLE REMEMBER WHAT THE UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION IS!!! :*(
You can ask Wolf Blitzer and the rest of Communist News Network about that. Why were they never held accountable, Graham, you pansy?
I don’t recall having limits on bad things we could say about the Nazis.
I can only wonder if the good Senator and his fellow excuse makers would get the message that the American people have had it with their ‘leaders’ BS rationalizations for the fact that they themselves have shackled the American military and are wholly responsible for continuing Muslim violence and terror.
We could have ended this years ago, just as the British brought control to that sandbox in their time.
Fact: Muslims will follow their mullahs and more specifically, the Koran regardless of how many female soldiers wear headscarves or how many Korans are burnt.
Fact: The American Military has the manpower, weaponry, skill and desire to end this garbage yesterday.
Fact: Obama and Republican sellouts are responsible for the shackles that prevent this.
One can only wonder what would happen if the public forced their hand. What if the public burned 100,000 or more Korans and keep doing it day after day after day. All across the fruited plain. What if the public stood up and left the administration no choice but actually fighting the war that Muslims have announced and carry out daily on the infidels?
They are slaughtering innocent christians now. Do we keep letting it happen and make excuses about “offending them” or do we recognize that we didn’t start this, war is hell and people die.
And yes, I have a dog in the fight... a child in the military who has served the tour of the sand box.
There was a post here a while back that I can’t find now that had a link to a short story by Dan Simmons that really put things into perspective. Fiction? Time will tell.
So is Sen. Pantywaste implying that it is acceptable to kill someone as long as someone else burned a Bible?
Strange times. It is perfectly fine to mock Christians in all respects, but someone burns a koran and it is a “hate” crime.
Funny thing is I didn’t know we were an islamic nation.
