Lindsey Graham: I Won't Let Ron Paul Hijack the GOP

Posted by southernavenger on 10/14/09

This isn't the best audio but more evidence of South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham's complete dismissal of Ron Paul's adherence to rigid constitutional government. Notice in the first video that instead of addressing the woman's criticism head on, Graham simply asks her who she voted for in the presidential election. When she replied "Chuck Baldwin" Graham then attempts to marginalize her based on her support for the Constitution Party, slamming Ron Paul in the process.

The following took place 10/12/09 at a town hall meeting in Greenville, SC:

Ron Paul Responds to Lindsey Graham

Posted by John Tate on 10/14/09 6:05 PM

For far too long, the Republican Party has been controlled by the "neoconservatives," those who readily abandon the free market at the drop of a hat if it means expanding government power and who think the United States should be the policeman of the world. They want us to support those who throw substance and principle to the wind in favor of political expediency.

Last Monday night, Senator Lindsey Graham reiterated his disdain for Ron Paul and limited government conservatives at a town hall when he said that he was not going to allow the Republican Party to be "hijacked by Ron Paul."

Instead, he thinks we should get behind those who he tells us "can win," even if it means abandoning every belief we hold dear in the process.

In addition to his afternoon appearance on Judge Napolitano's Freedom Watch, Congressman Paul will be responding to the neoconservatives on The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer tonight at 6 pm eastern and also on MSNBC's The Ed Show at 6:30 pm eastern.

CNN has shared with my staff that they want to hear from you on this issue. Contact The Situation Room and let them know you think neoconservatism has had its day and it is time for our elected officials to stick to the Constitution.

In our efforts over the past two years, we have made it clear we will no longer be silent while those who claim to believe in limited government and freedom behave exactly the opposite and help run our country into the ground.

The freedom movement is growing larger every day, and we will take our country back without abandoning our principles to do so.
