Sens. McCain & Graham Dedicate Morning to Discrediting Paul Filibuster (Graham Even Uses a Shame Chart!)
Sens. John McCain (l) and Lindsey Graham (r). (Getty Images).
Following the conclusion of Sen. Rand Paul’s nearly 13-hour filibuster of the White House’s secretive drone program, GOP senators Lindsay Graham (S.C.) and John McCain (Ariz.) took the opportunity to deride his efforts as absurd and “not helpful.”
“I don’t think that what happened yesterday is helpful to the American people,” Sen. McCain said after reading aloud a Wall Street Journal editorial that characterizes Sen. Paul’s concerns as “ridiculous.”
“To allege that … our government would drop a drone hellfire missile on Jane Fonda,” he continued, “that brings the conversation from a serious discussion about U.S. policy to the realm of the ridiculous.”
He also accused Sen. Paul of giving ammunition to the filibuster reform crowd:
Meanwhile, Sen. Lindsay Graham had this to say: “This idea that we’re going to use a drone to attack a citizen in a cafe in America is ridiculous.”
See for yourself:
Later, while speaking on the Senate floor, Sen. Graham continued his criticism of Sen. Paul.
“I don’t remember any of my GOP colleagues coming here to say Bush would kill Americans with a drone,” said Graham. “The chance of you being killed by a drone because you went to a Tea Party rally … is zero.”
Sen. Graham even brought a chart and everything:
Basically, as of this writing, the White House’s unofficial response to Sen. Paul’s filibuster has come from two GOP senators and a Wall Street Journal editorial.
This is very simple. If you think we are & should be at war always & everywhere, you’re with McCain and Graham. If not, you #standwithrand.

Posted on March 7, 2013 at 12:29pmIsn’t it Ironic that a Black man would be the one to sign an executive order that can
ENSLAVE ANY AMERICAN, AT ANY TIME, FOR ANY REASON !!!
That persons possessions can also be seized.
Executive Order 13603
Sec. 502. Consultants.
The head of each agency otherwise delegated functions under this order is delegated the authority of the President under sections 710(b) and (c) of the Act, 50 U.S.C. App. 2160(b), (c), to employ persons of outstanding experience and ability without compensation.
To forcefully employ persons without compensation = SLAVERY !!!

Posted on March 7, 2013 at 12:40pmMike: Inheritance tax is also slavery. To take what people have earned all their life is no different than slavery. They paid tax on their belongings and sweat equity their entire life, then have what is left taken away. A dangerous and devious precedent. A precedent they will no doubt cite as proof that central planners (a communist Government) own all money (and all it’s ill gotten gains) and it reverts back to them.

Posted on March 7, 2013 at 12:58pmIt’s time for the conservatives to turn on McCain and Graham and company. They want a war over the party, last night showed how to win it. And Rand Paul even opened up the big tent without compromising principles. Code Pink, ACLU, and a lot of Hollywood types with supporting Rand. That’s how you do it. We can fight it out with these guys on other issues but, it’s probably the first time Tea Party, Liberals, Libertarians, etc. could all agree on something and guess what it was? Liberty….. It’s almost as if that is what the country was built upon.

Posted on March 7, 2013 at 1:31pmHAUG,
These two as you say are establishment Republicans, meaning they are RINO’s and not Republicans all. They go along to get along, and they along with Obama are selling this country out. McCain was a disgrace as a Pewsidential candidate in 2008. He was nothing less and nothing more than a wimp and would not challenge Obama on any number of issues that he could have potentially been beaten on. I would of be at all surprised if McCain as much as he would have liked to be President, was convinced by the powers that be to back off and concede to the election of Obama. That is the degree that McCain is tied in with the Progressive elitist. It’s a blasted shame that McCain wasn’t sent packing in 2010 against J.D. Hayworth in the Senatorial primary in Arizona.
Both McCain and Lindsey are despicable excuses for representatives of the American people, just a wrung or two up the ladder from Obama who is at the bottom.
The sooner people get a grip on what is happening to this country and are willing to do something about it, the better chance we will have of turning things around. There may well have to be blood shed, lot of it. The question becomes, “What kind of world do you want your children and grandchildren to live in, and it is close enough to ask what kind of world do you want to live in?”

Posted on March 7, 2013 at 1:35pmEmail I sent:
I just witnessed McCain and Graham stabbing Rand Paul in the back over the
Drone issue… They know good and well Paul was speaking of protecting
American noncombatants against drone use but they continually mocked him
stating “Paul would allow the White House to be bombed, American targets
taken out by AlQueada, etc.. while the President stands with his hands
tied”… How utterly despicable.
They are diabolical and while I was thinking of what I’d do those two sobs returning from lunch, the scripture came to me “That in the last days men’s hearts would grow cold from the
prevalence of iniquity in the earth..”.. I’m still very hot. I called a buddy and he told me it was righteous indignation.. lol sounds much better. I’ll accept that.
You know what though.. I think now the avg Conservative sees through the
Neo-Con BS.. Finally. And I was telling my wife, we can’t underestimate how
important it is having someone like Glenn Beck on our side now.. I don’t
always agree with Beck especially his promotion of **** and multiculturalism
but he has a huge following.
Oh did you read about the 16 yr old girl getting shot in the head over in Birmingham this morning? 20 something blk male steps on bus and shoots her pt blank. I don’t know what more to say..
No one should have to experience that.. That is the price our masters insist that we pay to enjoy the thrills and pleasures of multicult.

Holder would not come right out and say that it was unconstitutional to use a drone on a citizen that is not actively threatening the country. It took four minutes before he said that what he was saying was what Cruz was asking, which it was not what Holder was saying. I think Holder get tired of being asked the question that he finally capitulated just to stop the questioning.

Obama and his staff in fact are ruthless, cunning and agenda driven. They eat idiots like Graham and McCain for breakfast..just like they were doing in Chicago. There’s no compromising with Obama, no middle ground, no reasonable solution. Paul understands this and his tactic was a roaring success. Meanwhile Graham and McCain meet in private with Obama thinking they’re being the clever ones. Obama does not give anything up unless he’s dragged kicking and screaming to the table..Paul gets it.

a few lone political voices & brave hearts
are fighting for the very soul of our country.
How rude, how wrong !
Then, the very next morning,
they have the audacity to mock the people & process.
SOMETHING is VERY wrong here !
This is exactly why Pelosi & the Libs jimmied-up Obamascare,
took it thru the back room-
they feared filibuster would be foster its death.

Which is to say Lindsey had virtual no skin in the game.

Posted on March 7, 2013 at 5:26pmMcCain & Grahm are progressive Republicians and these lifers need to be booted out. They only know how to Wheel & Deal. They both have brown racing stripes by their noses from all that brown nosing and running to Obamas rear when he stops to fast. They will both bend over for the Dems since they have got so use to it. We need TERM LIMITS!

Do Really think that you still have “representatives” ?
=====================
We do……but almost all of them are owned by the bank now:
—————————
“The paper-money system and its natural associations–monopoly and exclusive privileges–have already struck their roots too deep in the soil, and it will require all your efforts to check its further growth and to eradicate the evil. The men who profit by the abuses and desire to perpetuate them will continue to besiege the halls of legislation in the General Government as well as in the States, and will seek by every artifice to mislead and deceive the public servants.”
-Andrew Jackson, Farewell Address, March 4, 1837

Posted on March 7, 2013 at 5:39pmWell these two dip-s**ts need to ask old Eric Holder why he had such a hard time making any sense when asked if it would be legal to fire drones on American citizens on American soil without due process!
Just exactly WHO gets to decide the definition of the term “enemy combatants”? I that is Holder, we are all legal tergets.

Posted on March 7, 2013 at 5:43pmThese two obviously don’t understand the use of an old school talking filibuster. Sen. Paul did a great job bringing light to the drone situation. Sure he said some oddball things but hey the guy had 13 hours to fill. Graham and McCain are shills for the military industrial complex that use the constitution as a one way street.

I agree. We have some representation in D.C.
I would say about 5-7% are for the people.
I base this on the first vote on the senate floor, for NDAA.
7 of 100 voted in favor of the Constitution and the People.
~~~~~~~~
BTW, Steely Dan is my favorite band.
Also, I thank you for a quote you posted a while back, in response to my comment on my original character (PROBIEMSOVIER).
It was this:
“Gentlemen, I have had men watching you for a long time and I am convinced that you have used the funds of the bank to speculate in the breadstuffs of the country. When you won, you divided the profits amongst you, and when you lost, you charged it to the bank. You tell me that if I take the deposits from the bank and annul its charter, I shall ruin ten thousand families. That may be true, gentlemen, but that is your sin. Should I let you go on, you will ruin fifty thousand families, and that would be my sin. You are a den of vipers and thieves.”
– Andrew Jackson
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“The real truth of the matter is that a financial element in the large centers has OWNED THE GOVERNMENT since the days of Andrew Jackson.”
– President FD Roosevelt (1933-1945)

Posted on March 7, 2013 at 6:02pmI can barely stand McCain and only voted for him because I thought Sarah Palin was smarter than the two of them and she’s probably smarter and more knowledgeable than most who run for President.
Lindsey Graham is: one day he’s OK and the next day you wonder what you ever saw in him;
These two are showing professional jealousy, because most of us thought this filibuster was great and showed great strength and guts, finally. I was thrilled with a Rep. showing leadership for a change; the part we’ve been missing for a long time.
As far as I’m concerned, these two and most of their old worn out buddies who draw good pay for doing nothing but criticizing their colleagues need to pack up and leave Congress and let some of the younger, smarter ones who have balz that still work, take over for the good of our Country. Bye-bye.

Self-sufficiency (stockpiling food, ammo, hand tools, medical supplies)
Fear of economic collapse (buying gold and barter items)

Expressed fears of Big Brother or big government
Homeschooling

That was 1950s?? I’m not so sure that’s understood any longer at all.. Even among Consgressman and Senators. By the way “international” banker was well understood to be code word back then as Ford had recently written the “International Jew”.
Thanks for the quotes.. I need to cut and paste those. Very informative.
Berbel: I was a strict Constitutionalist and Conservative long before I became an anti-Semite. I know you hate it but you’ll find that the overwhelming number of people on this site share approximately 90% of my politial views.. No they may not hate Jews like I do because they simply do not have all the facts.. That’s why I’m here berbel.. I want to provide the facts.. Once all the facts are known then once again perhaps McFadden’s comment will be well understood.
You’re funny attacking me personally.. I never attack anyone on here personally but I really don’t give a rip because I’m not insecure.. I’m smarter, more educated, more informed, stronger, better looking, more charasmatic, and probably even have more money than you… Put simply you suck. ;)

The F-4 pilot was killed in the conflagration, along with 167 of his fellow Forrestal shipmates (including those who died later from wounds suffered). ‘Wet starting’ was a common practice among young ‘hot-dog’ pilots. McCain was quickly (they were still counting the Forrestal dead) transferred to the USS Oriskany (the only Forrestal crewman to be immediately transferred), whose father was directly responsible for the cover-up of the destruction of the multi-BILLION DOLLAR USS liberty, lecturing Rand Paul for standing up for US, something that’s not even in McCain’s wildest dreams!?

Hell, calling them a RINO would be an insult to RINO’S as these two have no principles and have learned from BHO that name calling and blaming others distracts from all their wrong doings. People like these two as well as others on both sides of the aisle are the problem and not willing to come out of their comfort zones to stand for Something and recognize we must put controls over them and their minions. THROW THE BUMS OUT!

Posted on March 7, 2013 at 12:21pmIs has nothing to do with whether they WOULD drop a bomb at an American Citizen. It has to do with the fact that they think they CAN. It needs to be clearly stated and ruled as unconstitutional and that it can never happen. Thats the point.

Posted on March 7, 2013 at 2:02pm@ MCON29 : We Have A Winner ! The Obamanites really want to take out some Americans on American Soil and they are going to do just that. Right now, they are floating trial balloons and ” testing the waters “. McCain and / or Graham have chosen sides and they are Not on the side of the American People. Arizona and South Carolina should not wait a couple of more years and THEN try to fire these RINO’s at the polls – They must be recalled NOW. Look how much damage they did in just a few minutes and you want to wait a couple of more years ? ! ? ! FIRE “EM ALL – RECALL !

Posted on March 7, 2013 at 12:21pmThe only thing I’ve ever held personally against the NVA, was them releasing John McCain…
But after reviewing the last 10 years of this maniacs tantrums and backstabbings at the expense of our People, can you blame them for not wanting to keep him?
It’s like our English brethren and Piers Morgan – I don’t like that he was forced off that island-nation to find a job, but can you blame the English for wanting to be rid of him?

Posted on March 7, 2013 at 12:28pmWOODYEE, McCain caught my attention back as he campaigned against Bush Senior in ’88. He was a whole lot nastier to Bush then than he ever was with 0bama. In ’08 its not a matter that I voted for him, I actually voted against 0bama.

Posted on March 7, 2013 at 12:20pmThese two are another good reason for term limits. But nothing will change in this country until something drastic happens forcing people to wake up. We are headed for economic collapse. When Obama got re-elected, it was officially the nail in the coffin. Reality sucks.

Posted on March 7, 2013 at 12:20pmNote to Senators McCain and Graham – I think I speak for many when I say first the first time in a long while, I felt somewhat hopeful. Sorry you felt that defending the Constitution is “silly”, but some of us “We the People” do not. Maybe it’s time for you two to retire already. Rand made us proud–you two do not.

Posted on March 7, 2013 at 12:19pmI think that these statements from McCain and Graham reflect the total (willful?) misunderstanding of what Paul was doing – he was taking things to the extreme, to point out the kind of extreme that things COULD be taken to, not saying that this is what was actually going to happen.

Posted on March 8, 2013 at 4:00amThey (McCain and Graham) couldn’t stand and talk for all those hours without saying something someone doesn’t like. Why do they do this IN PUBLIC? And UNDERMINE Rand’s underlying purpose? They must think O-blame-a is just your average politician. Well, if they ever have any extra time, I would strongly urge looking up the past of O and his days of slime-ing around in the sewers of Chicago. I’ve spent enough time researching about it so that I’m aware of what we’re all up against here in this country! These two made me cringe throughout their entire tantrum and I’m angry as he!! about what they did. Not only did they do this, but recently, at the hearing on Hagel, Ted Cruz asked brilliant, magnificent questions and incisively made a case that further time would be needed to do more probing. McCain then proceeded to lambaste him right there in front of everyone! He went on and on, just like today, trying to beat all the initiative and guts out of him. That’s what Graham and McCain want to do; beat the Tea Party reps into submission. Please let them know how you feel about it, if you agree and live in their respective states. I can’t because I’m in CA.

Thank you for your previous service, now, just go away.

While the White House limits use to terrorists on US soil, Paki and Afgan have stopped us from using them not because they kill terrorist, but due to the collateral damage on innocent families in the area.

Posted on March 7, 2013 at 1:32pm001- I’ve said it before he is generally pro-gun not pro gun control. You say pro-gun control because, really this is all he said, is that in an interview with Beck he stated that inner city people he would not be crazy with them having a semi-auto. While I disagree with him, I think it’s minor and he would not be trying to push anti-gun legislation in general. He has 99 percent of what we believe in and would love to see him go for VP. We need him. He says he will only go is God gives him the nudge. We need the nudge.

You’ll have to email me though.. Spring Break?? It just turned March and theres snow storms everywhere..
You make another good point about Carson being rational.. He is. Blacks are intimately aware of the rate in which they are killing one another with guns so they are definitely hyper concerned about that issue so much to the pt where they often lose sight of the forest.
But when anyone is pragmatic or rational they will eventually come around to the truth.
I’m interested in you because you questioned my assertions and challenged the facts.. Although I’ve posted the facts many times on the Blaze if you’ve come around in the past 6 mths there’s a good chance you’ve not seen them.
7-8 out of 10 on this site are not teachable.. Even when confronted with facts they will find a way to deny or dodge.. Oftentimes people that are teachable take that for granted.. some people are just very hardened in their views or perhaps insecure.

Mmm yes. I’m in Mass and right now it’s snowing. I guess that’s why people go to Florida. I have a few friends that live in California. In high school Spring break was in April, but I guess March break spring break made more sense because it marks the halfway point in the semester.
“7-8 out of 10 on this site are not teachable.. Even when confronted with facts they will find a way to deny or dodge.. Oftentimes people that are teachable take that for granted.. some people are just very hardened in their views or perhaps insecure.”
Yes, conservatives often jump to conclusions wayyy to early. Case in point, when Rand Paul voted for Hagel people were on here condemning him left and right. I spoke out and said “guys I like the Jesus like purity you want our politicians to have but the fact of the matter is, it is not realistic in the slightest since are human and more importantly this is a very small issue in the long run. If you can’t support Paul because of this issue then God help you.” Additionally, many conservatives and libertarians can’t accept slightly different points of view which is disappointing. IF we have any hope of beating the progressive machine, we need to unite together and beat most likely Hilary Clinton in 2016.
