Tweets of the Day: RINO Graham vs. Conservative Gohmert on Holder resignation...
Here is what Lindsey Graham had to say.
Here is what Louie Gohmert had to say.
When it comes to confirming Holder's replacement, do you feel confident Graham will not vote for a Holder clone?
I appreciate AG Holder’s service to our country even though we had strong disagreements at times. I wish him well in future endeavors.

AG #Holder has obfuscated the truth & been the most partisan, partial, prejudiced & self-pitying AG in my lifetime http://t.co/UTDGb2iBdw

Sen. Lindsey Graham on recent election: "There's ample evidence of fraud,"
If you thought he was talking about Mississippi, you are wrong. Graham and McCain are fine with fraud there. It's election fraud in Afghanistan that has them concerned.
Less than a week after allegations of fraud prompted election officials in Afghanistan to delay the results of that country's presidential runoff election, Sens. John McCain, R-Ariz., and Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., called Friday for the two remaining Afghan candidates to allow the results to be audited.
"There's ample evidence of fraud," said Graham, according to the Wall Street Journal. "There needs to be an audit that is recognized by the Afghan people as legitimate and by the international community as legitimate."
A failure to end the standoff, McCain warned, "could put not only the political environment in Afghanistan into a crisis, but also weaken American support for the continued process" of helping Afghanistan as the country recovers from more than a decade of war.

RINO Sen. Lindsey Graham: Repubs will call for Obama's impeachment if he unilaterally releases more from Gitmo
Unfortunately, calling for Obama's impeachment and actually having the balls to do it are not the same thing.
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) warned Wednesday that Republican lawmakers would call for President Obama’s impeachment if he released more prisoners from Guantanamo Bay without congressional approval.
Republicans worry Obama may try to shut down the prison camp unilaterally after congressional opposition has repeatedly stymied efforts to pass legislation to close it.
“It’s going to be impossible for them to flow prisoners out of Gitmo now without a huge backlash,” Graham said. “There will be people on our side calling for his impeachment if he did that.” Graham served as a House prosecutor during former President Clinton’s 1998 impeachment trial.
Congress tried to build in a safeguard against Obama making unilateral decisions on releasing terrorist detainees by including language in the National Defense Authorization Act requiring the administration to alert Congress of such moves at least 30 days in advance.
Obama did not follow that law when he swapped five senior Taliban commanders for Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl.

Only 31 percent of South Carolina’s Republicans plan to vote to re-elect .S. Sen. Lindsey Graham
RINO hunting season is officially open in South Carolina.
Via Post And Courier:
Via Post And Courier:
A new Clemson University poll shows U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham is having trouble with his Republican base here at home.
Clemson political science professor Dave Woodard conducted the poll last week and found only 31 percent of South Carolina’s Republicans plan to vote to re-elect Graham, regardless of who else was in the race.
“This is the lowest ‘re-elect regardless’ figure I have seen for any incumbent in 20-odd years of polling except for one other lower figure,” he said, adding that timing might have played a role.
The poll was taken one week after Graham and U.S. Sen. John McCain strongly supported a United States missile attack in Syria — a decision that 84 percent of the GOP base disagreed with, Woodard said.
Graham’s popularity was not as strong as South Carolina’s two other high-profile Republicans up for re-election next year: U.S. Tim Scott and Gov. Nikki Haley.

Democrat and Fox News analyst Pat Caddell calls Sen. Lindsay Graham the “effective leader of the surrender caucus of the Republican Party,”
Pat Caddell hit the nail on the head...
How fed up are South Carolina conservatives with Sen. Lindsay Graham?
Fed up enough to cheer a Democrat – a Jimmy Carter advising Democrat, no less – who showed up in Charleston to bash Graham on pretty personal terms, according to the Daily Beast.
Calling Graham the “effective leader of the surrender caucus of the Republican Party,” Democratic strategist and Fox News analyst Pat Caddell drew cheers from a gathering of conservative activists Monday night in the city’s downtown Harbour Club.

Vice President Joseph R. Biden offers to go to South Carolina and campaign for Sen. Lindsey Graham
It's time for South Carolina voters to end our long national nightmare and retire Sen. Lindsey
Graham.
Via Roll Call:
Via Roll Call:
Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. offered Sen. Lindsey Graham his support for re-election — including a pledge to “rip your skin off for you” if it helps the South Carolina Republican’s 2014 prospects.
“I told him I’ll come to South Carolina and campaign for him or against him, whichever will help the most — I know which it’ll be,” Biden said at an April 26 forum hosted by The McCain Institute for International Leadership. ”I’m going down there to to the JJ next weekend, Lindsey, and I assure you I will rip your skin off for you, and I expect a thank-you note.”
The offhand comment points to the possibility that Graham could face a 2014 primary challenge. He’s a target of conservative Republicans for several reasons, including his work on the Senate’s bipartisan “gang of eight” immigration bill and his foreign policy views.

Last night's dinner with President Obama and my Republican colleagues was productive and substantive. I hope it will serve as the beginning of a new, long-overdue paradigm where people in elected office actually begin talking to each other about meaningful issues.

RINO's Show Their Horns
Senator Lindsey Graham and Senator John McCain are calling for NATO to assassinate Muammar Gaddafi.
Reuters reported:
(Telegraph) — Senior western leaders called for Nato to adopt an assassination policy against Col Muammar Gaddafi to salvage the bombing campaign in Libya from a descent into stalemate.NATO responds?
The calls came as Col Gaddafi was reported to have strengthened his grip on power by repatriating billions of dollars in overseas assets that should have been frozen by UN sanctions.
On Sunday, there was growing pressure on Coalition forces to directly target Col Gaddafi with military strikes.
Senator Lindsey Graham, a Republican member of the Senate Armed Services committee, said that the quickest way to end the emerging stalemate was to “cut the head of the snake off”. He said: “The people around Gaddafi need to wake up every day wondering, ‘Will this be my last?’
Senator John McCain, who visited Libya at the weekend, also said that the Libyan dictator should be targeted...
Reuters reported:
A NATO airstrike flattened a building inside Muammar Gaddafi’s Bab al-Aziziyah compound early Monday, in what a press official from Gaddafi’s government said was an attempt on the Libyan leader’s life.

Lindsey Graham Censured for Being a RINO

A South Carolina GOP group has formally censured GOP U.S Senator for disrespecting his constituents.
The party’s executive committee took the action Thursday, joining a handful of other county parties, including Greenville’s GOP.
Committee member Pete Seaha, who also is the Aiken County Tea Party chairman, wrote the resolution and introduced it at the meeting. The resolution states in part that Graham won’t be invited to any party meetings or events.
“I don’t believe the senator is sticking to conservative Republican principles,” said Seaha. “In my mind, the senator has disrespected his constituents. He has said publicly on a talk show that he didn’t care what they thought.”
Last month Graham called the Tea Party a fringe movement.
“The tea party will die out… Republicans will move away from the fringe.”

Another Nail in the Coffin of Cap-and-Trade

RINO Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) is pulling his support for the Democrats Cap-and-Trade bill. Graham is angry Democrats are planning to push immigration reform before the energy bill. Senator Graham has been working with Democrats on immigration reform too, but he thinks it is too politically charged and will poison the atmosphere in Washington.
The NYT reported:
In a move that may derail a comprehensive climate change and energy bill in the Senate, one of the measure’s central architects, Senator Lindsey Graham, has issued an angry protest over what he says are Democratic plans to give priority to a debate over immigration policy.
Mr. Graham, Republican of South Carolina, said in a sharply worded letter on Saturday that he would no longer participate in negotiations on the energy bill, throwing its already cloudy prospects deeper into doubt. ...
This likely kills Cap-and-Trade for 2010.

Graham on ObamaCare Process: “No Sober Person Would Do This”
Sen. Lindsey Graham thinks Democrats have “Gone Fanatical” and must be drunk.
Graham on ObamaCare Process: Dems Have "Gone Fanatical," "No Sober Person Would Do This"
“They’re trying to use a process that is sleazy, it’s unfair, it’s a trick play. They’re trying to have a health care bill passed without voting on it. So my comments really reflect the fanaticism of the Democratic leadership, and I don’t know whether sake or moonshine, but no sober person would do this.”
