Lindsey Graham defends Democrats from Rand Paul’s foreign aid attacks (Unbelievable)
The Daily Caller ^ | 10/10/2012 | W. James Antle

Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul has started airing ads attacking Democrats who recently voted to continue foreign aid to Egypt, Libya and Pakistan, but one of his GOP Senate colleagues has risen to their defense.

On Tuesday, South Carolina Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham joined West Virginia Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin on a conference call defending Machin’s foreign aid vote, the Charleston Gazette reported.

“A lot of debate goes on about foreign aid,” Graham said. “Foreign relations are not a Democrat or Republican issue, but a American issue.”

“Joe Manchin works with Barack Obama to send billions of our taxpayer dollars to countries where radicals storm our embassies, burn our flag and kill our diplomats,” Paul’s ad states.

Paul proposed an amendment that would have suspended aid to Egypt, Libya and Pakistan that was overwhelmingly defeated on Sept. 21.

Another version of the ad is running against Democratic Sen. Bill Nelson in Florida. Paul’s political action committee announced Wednesday that the 60-second spot will start airing against Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown in Ohio.

Yep. But remember, sarcasm, that we need to elect a bunch of RINO’s so we can have good SCOTUS judges like Souter, Kennedy and Roberts.

I don’t think Lindsey really wanted to do this. But his bum chum probably told him he had to or there’d be no more whoopie.

Lindsey’s in her final term. She can count on similar ads being run against her in two years! (and the feminine pronouns are intentional)

He is one of the worst. He does more damage than some of the moderate Democrats (all 2 of them). The people in South Carolina love him though unfortunately. He can say anything he wants and they reelect him time and time again. No wonder he feels entitled to say whatever he wants. So frustrating.

Lindsey is afraid with R and R in office that he will become irrelevant. He already is but he doesn’t know it.

In other words, Lindsey is on-board with continuing to shovel (borrowed) American tax dollars at these savages while they openly attack and mock us.

Perhaps Lindsey should be sent to represent us in Bengazi if Romney is elected.

Lindsey Graham doesn’t leave the house with calling his bromance buddy McStain first.

Rumor has it that Mark Sanford is going to challenge him.
