Key Republican Rips Glenn Beck
AOL Newes ^ | October 2, 2009 | AOL N ews

Posted on 10/02/2009 12:46:24 PM PDT by libstripper

Lightning-rod talker Glenn Beck is taking a hit from an unexpected source. The Fox News host isn't aligned with any political party, Sen. Lindsey Graham said Thursday, Beck is "aligned with cynicism." And, the South Carolina Republican added, America isn't a nation of cynics. Graham, who spoke at The First Draft of History conference sponsored by The Atlantic, also took at shot at "birthers." He said those who question President Obama's citizenship or claim he's a secret Muslim are "crazy" -- and he urged them to "knock this crap off." Graham's remarks came a day after the White House took aim at Beck and Fox, charging they were running a smear campaign against presidential aide Valerie Jarrett and the administration's campaign to bring the 2016 Olympics to Chicago.

Graham isn't a key. He isn't even a Republican. He is one of the problems that haunt the Republicrat Party!

If the top military leaders resigned and then the Republicans would walk out of both houses of Congress, leaving a few 'moderates' (who stand for nothing) a constitutional crisis would be triggered?

Further, it those two events occurred an overthrow of this illegal and evil government would ensue?

Graham would literally be thrown under the bus.

If Charlie Crist gets into the Senate—and I sincerely hope he doesn’t—McNasty is going to have two butt-lickers following him around, Miss Lindsey and Suntan Charlie.

Might make Cindy start to wonder about Johnny, keeping company like that!

If the likes of Graham and McCain are “key Republicans,” look for Democrat gains in 2010.

Lindsey sees the writing on the wall: the days of voting lesser of two evils is coming to an end. And that makes Lindsey uncomfortable.

He’s used to playing both sides, always making everyone else the boogeyman to make himself look good. Now Beck is the boogeyman and Lindsey is the clear headed shinning knight of positivity.

But the truth is Lindsey stands for one thing and one thing only: Lindsey. Lindsey needs an ignorant conservative base. And it just so happens Beck is informing the base.

Graham is NOT a “key Republican”.

He’s a WIMP, always at the ready to give away conservative principles.

He’s the kid, who in Junior High, always went hungry because he let the bullies con him out of his lunch money.

The political battle is being redefined.
It’s not donks & pachiderms anymore,
it’s elitists vs individualists.

We’re going to make OUR OWN DECISIONS, you bastids.
Self-rule. That’s what this country was founded on.

First and last. Lindsey Graham is a RINO; not a Republican.

Enough said.

Grahmnesty is trying to help McCain recruit RINOs.

Elephan vs RINO, who wins?

RINO is just a donkey with an elphant mask pretending to be a Rhino.

Squish goes the RINO.

Lindsey, take yourself and your worthless, unsolicited opinions back to South Carolina. The only one from SC with a Senator by his name we care to hear from is DeMint. So, Lindsey (wussy name you have there), STFU!

Palin is screwing up McCain’s effort to produce pro-homosexual, oprahfied, wimps who obey RINOs.

Lindsey’s a key republican? Like Olympia Snowe or Susan Collins. The state run media haven’t a clue.

THe MSM knows Graham is politically deceased. He has noting and no viewer ratings value. This is why they had to conceal who it was.

You say “Rush” or “Beck” or “Palin” and you have ratings PLATINUM.

You say mccain or grahnesty and you have ratings poison.
