Lindsey Graham is an idiot.......
Lindsey Graham: ‘Let’s Get In On The Ground. There’s A Lot Of Money To Be Made In The Future Of Libya’

http://thinkprogress.org/security/2011/10/20/348754/graham-libya-money-to-be-made/

Yes, Lindsey, let's spend billions on rebuilding Libya and get our hands on their oil while letting our own infrastructure fall apart. And let's not tax millionaires 1/2 of 1% on money they make over $1 million so that we can provide 400,000 jobs to teachers, police, and firefighters. Get your priorities in order there, Lindsey, you moron.

9. Right ... run up the deficit to rebuild Libya,
but don't spend a dime on helping Americans or rebuilding our own infrastructure.

3. I don't even need to read the body of the post to give a rec!
:kick:

If Lindsey is for it, you're pretty safe in betting that it is something we don't want to happen.



Get it here now, or one of a million other designs! http://www.zazzle.com/republicans_2012_keeping_millions_out_of_work_bumper_sticker-128659602907896843?rf=238107662556833486eping_millions_out_of_work_bumper_sticker-128659602907896843?rf=238107662556833486

6. Fools.
From your link:

Here's the curious thing about their hawkish swagger: In August of 2009 — not even two years ago — McCain, Lieberman, Graham traveled to Tripoli to shake the bloody hand of the freedom-depriving dictator they now want to assassinate. It was the highest-level meeting of Libyan and American officials since Condi Rice's state visit in 2008. (The amigos were joined by Susan Collins who has questioned the wisdom of the war.)

5. This is freaking unreal.
They vote to stop any discussion on Obama's job bill, refuse to raise taxes on the wealthiest Americans, have no plan of their own to address unemployment, raise such a ruckus about the deficit that they almost shut down the government which further damages the economy, but think we should run right in to Libya and rebuild their nation. Boggles the mind.

8. So that was one of the true reasons for the conflict?
UN will continue to be a lap-dog of the western powers and the rest of the world bonafide fools and idiots!

11. And, water is wet, and grass is green.
I'm surprised he pulled his lips away from McCain's ass long enough to spew that idiocy.

14. Okay, he is worse than an idiot.
He is a suck-up to his wealthy contributors who would be the ones making money by going into Libya to rebuild their infrastructure.

He and all the other Republicans in Congress have no intention of doing anything to rebuild the infrastructure in the United States. Nor do they have any intention of passing any legislation that would help the average unemployed or under-employed American survive in this horrible economy.

13. It's blasphemous to worship the dollar.
What would Jesus do, Lindsay? Don't forget to thump your Bible tonight, Lindsay.
