Let me repeat what I said last week after he clapped the NSA on the back for collecting Americans phone records: Its not just the fact that he endorses ideas like this, its the ease with which he does it. There appears to be none of the usual angst you see from other pols about security/liberty trade-offs when he talks counterterrorism. Hes almost entirely on one side of that topic in much the same way Ron Paul is, but even if you think Pauls naive about security risks, at least hes on the side of personal freedom. You get the sense with Graham that if Obama convinced him that Al Qaeda could be defeated only through martial law, hed head straight to the Senate floor to make the case.
Libertarianism has no greater asset than this guy.
In World War II, the mentality of the public was that our whole way of life was at risk, were all in. We censored the mail. When you wrote a letter overseas, it got censored. When a letter was written back from the battlefield to home, they looked at what was in the letter to make sure they were not tipping off the enemy, Graham, a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, told reporters on Capitol Hill. If I thought censoring the mail was necessary, I would suggest it, but I dont think it is.

If you can think of any other betrayals, let me know.
Post them to Graham's Facebook page, as well.
They’re trying to retire Loveable Lindsey, but there is only so much sanity the people of SC will accept.
Ya gotta wonder if those 49% that support him, from the most recent polls, were dropped on their heads as children. I wonder if they realize that it is preferable to elect smart people over stupid ones.
