John McCain and Lindsey Graham Declare War on Rand Paul
Reason ^ | Mar. 7, 2013 12:09 pm | Brian Doherty

Posted on 03/07/2013 10:12:20 AM PST by Behind Liberal Lines

The anti-Rand Pauls, Sen. John McCain of Arizona and Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, took to the Senate floor this morning to defend killing American citizens at presidential discretion. Graham is doing so live on C-SPAN2 right now, saying that everything you do is a danger to America no matter who or where you are, as long as the U.S. government has decided you have "joined al-Queda," whatever the hell that means....The Republican Party is at war, folks, and let's hope Rand Paul and his troops win.

Maxine Waters called Rand Paul “destructive.” So did McCain.

McCain and Waters on the same page.

Wow.

Can someone lead these tired old RINOs out to pasture?

I literally want to make like Moe and knock the heads of these two knuckleheads together. Seriously, how can there even be a question about this? It is time for these two to go home, or for the voters in their states to send them home. What a disgrace.

You too can elect a Senator(s) to be proud of.

The Establishment pukes can be overcome.

Trust in yourselves. Y’all can do this!

Can I be on top tonight?

Yeah, but you had better not forget the reach around again this time.

Graham and McCain represent EVERYTHING that’s WRONG about the Republican Party.

Amen. I just had to repeat that sentence, it sums the problems with the GOP quite well. Short and to the point.

I think these two are watching their time as the "head" of the Republicans in the Senate going away, and they are desperately trying to maintain their "relevance".

I know Paul is getting all the press today; but, I caught some of Ted Cruz's questioning of Holder and I almost felt sorry for Holder (almost). I came away with the firm belief that Holder is a dummy and Cruz had him for lunch.

I was forced to vote for this asswipe for President.

I try to comfort myself by saying that I voted for Sarah, not John McCain.

Remember in McCain’s nomination speech he came out and started talking about his POW experience and said “They broke me.” He was afraid the democrats were going to start talking.

He also slammed the swift boat veterans who were against Kerry.

I remember the hearings. He slammed Perot. But Perot was right.

I guess I’m okay that, though neither did a fat lot of good. We were outvoted and outcheated by a bunch of lying, cheating, lazy, no count frigging haters who were supported in the rear guard by the REMF media.

I think I would've been disappointed if Juan McLame or Light in the Loafers Lindsay approved, so this is great. Maybe they're mad because Rand Paul and Ted Cruz might upset the good ole boy applecart, or maybe they're just cheap hookers bought off by 0bama's dinner last night.

Rand Paul and Ted Cruz are the first ones in DC in a long, long time that have stood up for ME!

Graham and McCain get their marching orders from Karl Rove.

Damn straight. Imagine Reid or Durbin ever slamming any other Dem senator for being liberal! Dem leaders are the most extreme in their party.


Martinez, Graham and the Swimmer ... birds of a feather and all ...

The Tea Party is moving away from the republican party and they will NEVER win another election without us.

This is exactly why the (R)s are gone. Besides the elites that determine who will be the next the (D)s control. As I have predicted for many months, The Hildabeast is a shoe-in.
