Among the crowded field of potential Presidential candidates vying for the GOP’s nomination, Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) is the latest to stump in New Hampshire.

While visiting the Concord City Republican Committee on March 7th at the “Politics and Pies” forum, the 59-year-old Senator asserted that American ground troops would be necessary to defeat ISIS. In addition, he advocated for the reversal of defense spending cuts and, as President of the United States, Graham would restrict the movement of lawmakers until those cuts are reversed.
In a chilling statement, Graham said he would not allow Congress to leave D.C. until his demands are met, declaring he would use United States military force to keep them there.
“…and here is the first thing I would do if I were President of the United States, I wouldn’t let Congress leave town until we fix this. I would literally use the military to keep them in if I had to.”
New Hampshire GOP leaders were unable to speak on behalf of the candidate.
Graham’s South Carolina U.S. Senate primary opponent, State Senator Lee Bright, had this to say:
“If Graham is not being serious he should choose his words with more thought. If he is being serious those actions would be a threat to the republic.”
Graham’s office responded to a clarification inquiry with:
“Due to the large volume of mail I receive, I regret that I am only able to respond personally to inquiries from South Carolinians.”

Graham is just another one of the Criminally Insane in the Military and Politics.
The Military and the Department of Homeland Security are just the Protection Arm of the Organized Crime Syndicate Run by Politicians in Congress, the Presidency and the Military. The US wouldn’t have as big drug, gun or human trafficking problems if Homeland Security and the Military were defunded and the Criminals Running the US were put in prisons……
The Worst Criminals are running the US, not in Prisons or Jails now.
Stone cold nuts. Look at McCain, Graham, Pelosi, Reid, Obama and so many more of these traitors and they really do look like insane junkies. I think just the weight of all of the evil deeds against humanity that they are responsible for has taken a toll on them. Completely off their rockers. All of them.
