Lindsey Graham: When Obama threatens Putin, ‘everybody’s eyes roll’ [VIDEO]
The Daily Caller ^ | 12:59 PM 03/02/2014 | Brendan Bordelon

South Carolina Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham advised President Barack Obama to stop threatening “thugs and dictators” like Russia’s Vladimir Putin on television, claiming that “everybody’s eyes roll” every time he does.

Graham spoke with CNN’s Candy Crowley on a panel including Democratic Illinois Sen. Dick Durbin. Crowley noted that Graham had been critical of Obama’s brief statement on the Russian invasion of southern Ukraine on Friday. “What more do you want from President Obama at this point?” the CNN host asked.

“Well number one, stop going on television and trying to threaten thugs and dictators,” Graham began. “It is not your strong suit. Every time the president goes on national television and threatens Putin — or anyone like Putin — everybody’s eyes roll, including mine. We have a weak and indecisive president that invites aggression.”

People in SC are too low-information to figure out anything any more.

True, except in SC, where it counts.

Lindsey won’t be getting any invites to the WH for dinner for a while.

Of course, Lindsey is in a tough reelection, so he has to try to sound tough and conservative.

Thanks for the ping. Gotta give it to Linda, she spoke the truth. Something many pols won't do. But she's still a Uber RINO and has more than earned the right to be tossed out on her ass this November.

John: Lean in closer, linda. You won't believe the weekend I have planned just for us.

linda: Sounds good, sweetie. BTY, I love what you're doing with your left hand. Shall I bend over this chair a bit more?

Want on or off this ping list?
Just FReepmail me.

Ahh,but things are different now-it being an election year.Graham probably gave Zero a heads-up that he was going to do this.

I didn’t see the eye rolling but I did hear a good bit of laughter.

I can honestly say my eyes have never rolled. The president is IMHO in over his head, indeed the entire administration with him. I can honestly say my eyes didn’t roll but my concern increased.

I’d like some journalist to ask the President if he still wants to be ‘flexible’ with Putin as he promised before the election.
