Lindsey Graham really bared his neocon fangs today, angrily attacking Ron Paul supporters and defending the Iraq War in the same breath, before a SC GOP gathering:

YouTube - Lindsey Graham says Ron Paul isnt the leader of the party, we think different!

But U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham followed with a fiery speech that drew jeers from the crowd.

Graham told the crowd there was nothing wrong with any conservative, and he wanted to build an open party that could win in Pennsylvania and Connecticut, as well as South Carolina.

“You’re a hypocrite!” one man yelled.

“I’m a winner, pal,” Graham shot back. “Winning matters to me. If it doesn’t matter to you, there’s the exit sign.”

“Ron Paul is not the leader of this party,” Graham said, prompting a few jeers. Some people yelled, “Yes, he is!”

“I’m not going to give this party over to people who can’t win,” Graham finished, drawing most of the crowd to its feet.

Because winning is all that matters..

Never mind the attempt, never mind the support, never mind the ideas.. just win, dammit.

Graham can kiss my ass however he should be the incentive for every libertarian,Constitutionalists,Paleo Conservative and other like minded to join that party and force those son of a bitches to leave!

 

[pmbug]

Ron Paul is a leader because he cares more about principle than party.

 

[jkr]

i'm a winner, i win, that's what i do...

someone is a *serious* jerk

leave?
you want to represent me and you want me to leave?
FU

Mark Sanford and Jim DeMint are opposed to spending the stimulus money, while Lindsey Graham is in favor of taking the money with the strings attached and spending it. He also said that nationalizing the banks should be on the table. Seems like Lindsey Graham fears that the support for neocon policies (neocons like government programs, in addition to aggressive wars) is eroding in the SC Republican party.

funny .. but lindsey just outed himself worse than we ever could..


cant get better than straight from the horses mouth.. what a fucking TOOL.

 

[Chester Copperpot]

this guy obviously doesnt know how to read the Constitution or uphold his oath of office to it..

we need to start the process of removing this guy from office... Is this guy up for re-election this year or something?

 

[Chester Copperpot]

If Lindsey Graham was in the new Bruno movie... I bet you Bruno WOULD have seduced him...

fucking cock gobbler that he is.

 

[SamuraisWisdom]

What's scary is that the crowd gave him a standing ovation.

What's scary is that the crowd gave him a standing ovation.

I noticed that too, that shows who is in control of the Party, why a war hero yet a war mongering moderate won the nomination and someone like Ron Paul gets laughed at by the likes of Guillini, we have a long battle ahead of us if we are going to succeed,imho.

Seem's like Lindsey's boy McCain couldn't win either, and they won't win- ever again.

 

[ItsTime]

Is he the leader of the GOP? I dunno, but they sure are picking up all his talking points.

 

[Anti Federalist]

Seem's like Lindsey's boy McCain couldn't win either, and they won't win- ever again.

And they won't change their tune until they lose again and again and again.

 

[RevolutionSD]

What a bunch of absolute NONSENSE. And listen to all those zombies cheering. Fuck Graham. "WE" must fight them over there? Fight who? Who is "WE"? Is Lindsay Graham going to suit up and join the front lines? This collectivist bullshit has got to stop. The enemy is FICTIONAL. It's a boogeyman. It AMAZES me that so many Americans still fall for this rhetoric that "we must win!!". WTF is "winning" anyway? And lastly, WHO IS PAYING FOR THIS WAR AND HOW ARE WE GETTING THE MONEY???

 

[LibertyEagle]

And they won't change their tune until they lose again and again and again.

It all depends upon who "they" are. We all know both parties are controlled by the same people at the top. Sure, they might change the rhetoric, but nothing is going to really change until we decide to BECOME on of the parties. If we'd do that, the people at the top would be so totally outed and could easily be kicked out the door. All it takes is us deciding to do it. The question is, will we?

 

[LibertyEagle]

Hey Lindsay, IRAQ DIDN'T ATTACK US, you frickin' moron!

GOP is hopeless...these fools STILL support this war after 8 friggin years

 

[silverhandorder]

Are you guys trying to beat neocons for the head in the sand game?

There were people who opposed him in the audience. The reason why he gt a standing ovation is because the people that went to see him are probably the people that support him.
