South Carolina RINO Lindsey Graham guested on Meet the Press Sunday and actually said things – for once – that didn’t make conservatives hair stand on end.
Shocking, but true.
He pointed out that despite all the union goon signs calling Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker is a dictator and comparing him (unfavorably, we might add) to Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini and Hosni Mubarak, he is doing exactly what he said he was going to do when he was elected a mere four months ago.
In other words, he’s doing exactly the people of Wisconsin elected him to do.
Graham: In a democracy, when you run on something, you do have an obligation to fulfill your promise. He didn’t take anybody by surprise, he’s doing exactly what he said. There was a referendum on this issue and the unions lost, and the Democrats in Wisconsin should come back to Wisconsin to have votes.
Far be it from us to be cynical, but it appears that November’s elections have impacted politics in South Carolina as well as in Wisconsin.

"In a democracy, when you run on something, you do have an obligation to fulfill your promise" Graham
Oh - like Ending the war?
A transparent administration?
No lobbyists ?
Bipartisanship ?
Lindsey needs a cookie
Lindsey...I would have killed myself early in life if my parents had named me Lindsey. What he really needs is a swift kick in the testicle.<(not a typo)
Why don't the rest of the politicians do what they promised? Including Graham?
They might...if they could actually READ and UNDERSTAND the Constitution. The problem is that they ALL see it through the eyes of a lawyer.
God I hate lawyers. They should ALL be forced into indentured servitude.
WOW! I just discovered a new natural right. We ALL have the Right to own a lawyer. I need someone to mow the lawn and take out the trash.
Be careful anarcho or you might cost some poor illegal alien his job. Make them do public works instead: pick up litter in the street, paint over graffiti, fill pot holes, pick up garbage along the side of the road, oh wait a minute, inmates on chain gangs do that already...hmmm, I'm thinking, I'm thinking here!
Doesn't he look like an old peter puffer to you? Looks like he just swallowed something that didn't agree with him.
peter puffer, maybe.
modern, feminized, fence post in the ass girlie-man, DEFINITELY
A politician doing what he said he would do? Clearly, this is a huge threat to all politicians in office.
"Lindsey Graham isn’t a total tool"Sure he is and he always will be. Pol's like Graham know full well on which side their bread is buttered. I wouldn't trust this guy to be an ally in a game of pairs tiddly-winks, let alone in something as important as State or Federal budgets.
He would side with the devil if he thought it would gain him status in D.C.
Like a beacon in the night, Wisconsin will lead the way for the rest of the country to follow.
In brightest day, in blackest night,
No evil shall escape from sight.
Let those who worship evil's might,
Beware the power of cheese!
OH yes he is and don't let him fool you. He plays the exact same game McClown does;Lindsey Graham – Maverick, deal-maker with ‘vision’ http://bit.ly/bwb6AQ
