Source: charlestoncitypaper.com URL Source: http://www.charlestoncitypaper.com/ ... nt-let-ron-paul-hijack-the-gop Published: May 28, 2015 Author: Jack Hunter Post Date: 2015-05-28 01:41:04 by Pericles Keywords: None Views: 2194 Comments: 14 This is not a link to any article but I am getting the impression the Republicans who support wars and increasing the military's budget and the so called hawk mentality are really freaked out over Rand Paul and the only reason Graham is running is to make sure that Paul does not win Republican voters over to his side. Graham, was actually seen as sort of a less vocal hawk a few years ago. His current tough guy persona seems fake - like he was hired to play a part by a lobby group.

To: Pericles (#0) Is Lindsey Graham's only reason for running as pres to make sure Rand Paul does not win over GOP converts so they party can remain hawkish? Exactly how is Graham supposed to affect Paul's primary performance? Am I to believe that Paul's supporters' second choice is Graham? That Graham's profound, thought-provoking statements will win hearts and minds? Please. This idiot is more in the Giuliani "muh terrorists!" mold.

To: GeorgiaConservative (#2) (Edited) It works like on Freerepublic - when you go against the grain you get a few people that follow you around and denounce you and it is a very effective technique. For some reason American conservatives seem to be more group thinking than commies. It is all about ideological purity, party orthodoxy and tamping down dissent. God forbid anyone mentions the failins of the 5 year plan (in this case how the interventionist ideology caused the debacle in the middle east).

For some reason American conservatives seem to be more group thinking than commies Glad you brought that up. I have found that when someone like Cheney or Palin have made public statements about Obama being weak on foreign policy reacting to some related news issue, that is when JR attacks libertarians and all others on that site who are skeptical of Bush type nation building. Example ,early 2010 after the shoe bomber. But by 2011 the Bushies were in hot water with the Palinistas there and many of the Bushbots were run off there, also JR's hero Dick Cheney came out for gay marriage, OWCH! That must of hurt. He still curses out Rand Paul from time to time,. One last note on this, ohiowfan.

To: TrappedInMd (#6) One last note on this, ohiowfan. She fled there for good because of so much Bush bashing ohiowfan sounds familiar - if Freerepublic was a country, they would have had gulags and death squads and she would have been an eager killer for the freeper party until they turned on her too. If I remember her correctly, she was one of the worst. Freerepublic is sort of the main reason I left the American conservatives and re-rooted my ideology in classical European conservatism - strong Christian social bonds inside a market economy. This has almost no analogue here in America because Christian and conservative tends to sound like Rep. Bachmann. I am more like Angela Merkel's kids of Christian conservative.

If I remember her correctly, she was one of the worst. There are way too many stories about her to tell in a comment, she posted like a nutbag. Your assessment of her is correct, On Bachmann, she's very entertaining but sometimes says some pretty nutty stuff herself.
