Republican presidential candidate and South Carolina Senator Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said he would have stood up to the questioner who told fellow Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump “We have a problem in this country, it’s called Muslims. We know our current president is one. You know he’s not even an American” on Friday’s Andrea Mitchell Reports on MSNBC.
Graham was asked, “What would you have done?”
He answered, “Stand up to the guy. I had this happen to me in Iowa where a guy used the n-word and was very derogatory toward President Obama and Muslims, and I said, I’m not seeking your vote, I don’t want your vote. President Obama, I don’t question his faith, I don’t question his patriotism, I don’t question his origin of birth. And when these things happen, you’re not responsible for what the guy says, you are responsible for how you respond. So, it’s very inappropriate, I think, to let that go. you need to look the guy in the eye and say, ‘Listen, I don’t agree with you, I don’t appreciate what you said, this is not the way I’m going to campaign, this is not who I am.”

Not to worry, he is never going to have more than 4 people at his rally and two are voting for Paul.
Pray America is waking
, this is not the way I’m going to campaign, this is not who I am.”

We know all to well that’s not who you are Linda.
It is interesting the press has not found the questioner, nor do reporters seem to have any interest in finding him. It appears to have been trap set for Trump with the White House, media, and GOPe ready to pounce given the speed with which the story “evolved”.
Would have, should have, could have.....
Just a shame you weren’t included in the grown-up version of the debates, Gomer......
After South Carolina seceded in 1860, Petigru famously remarked, "South Carolina is too small for a republic and too large for an insane asylum." This quote is still used to describe contemporary South Carolinian politics.
It more than adequately explains why they keep electing Goober.
"Ceterum censeo 0bama esse delendam."
Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

at 0 and he still thinks kissing up to the divider in chief will get him voters. WOW
Isn’t Linda just the cutest thing when she starts imagining how bold she would have been in Himself’s place?
LOL!
THAT'S gonna leave a mark!
The political class has no clue
Ordinarily a “candidate” polling in the low ZEROES wouldn’t garner much attention but the homosexual media continues to insist that Graham is relevant.
He’s not.
The HOMOSEXUAL Graham derives his power in that he doesn’t have to run for reelection for 5 effen years.
So he would be Exhibit A vis a vis repealing or neutralizing the 17th.
*** Lindsey Graham: I Would Have Stood Up To Muslim Questioner ***
I’d be surprised if he even pees standing up.
Lets hear what LG the FAGGOT’s wife and kids have to say on this issue.
Oh that’s right, he doesn’t have a wife or kids!.
Excuse me? Lindsey Graham is actually pretty popular in SC, but even they don’t think that he’s ever stood up to anybody in his entire life.
Linda....at less than 1% . He’ll be following Perry out the door.
Yeah, you’re a pussy. Stinky pussy at that!
And this is precisely why you are not registering in the polls, weenie.
Answer here” “Stand up to the guy. I had this happen to me in Iowa where a guy used the n-word and was very derogatory toward President Obama and Muslims”God this is so easy.
“So, it’s very inappropriate, I think, to let that go. you need to look the guy in the eye and say, ‘Listen, I don’t agree with you, I don’t appreciate what you said, this is not the way I’m going to campaign, this is not who I am.””
There is no law that says he has to respond at all. If he chooses to, The correct response is “Listen, I don’t agree with you, I don’t appreciate what you said but you have every right to say it. It’s called Freedom of Speech.”
Surprised that Graham - given all the time he had to think about it-didn’t come up with that answer? I’m not.
