Roy I hate to break the news to you but LG has always been a RINO. He is a McCain Republican. he aint never been one of us....
but i sure wish all Democrats were what he is. America would be better if we were arguing about things between where LG is and where Conservatives are.... much better.
I think you are absolutely correct but the media seems to think he is a real Republican, and he isn't at all.
Who determines whether one is a RINO? Perhaps Graham is a real Republican, and the rest of you are the RINOs. I mean, is the term RINO subjective and arbitrary? If so, it seems a rather meaningless classification.
Republican in Name Only. RINO. Lindsey Graham, Olympia Snowe, John McCain and several others.
Roy that damn Lindsey Grahmnesty has been on my **** list since the amnesty fiasco and now he's getting worse. Just another ankle grabber hiding behind an R.
As for Hanoi John "Ketchup Meiser" Kerry I would like to see him strung up on the White House lawn for treason.
Not only is old Lindsey failing to do his duty, according to Americans for Prosperity he recently came out with Jon Carry in support of Crap and Tax and was forced to back down by organized groups initiating phone calls from South Carolinians.
This man is fast becoming at least as bad as Olympia Snowe in supporting Democrats for all kinds of left leaning ideas. The real problem is that, like Obama, he has only used one year of his term. i don't know whether they have recall in South Carolina but if they do it is high time they used it.
During the last election, lots of conservos griped about McCain not being far enough to the right.
Now it's Lindsay Graham.
Conclusion: conservos hate vets. They love Limbaugh and Cheney, though.
The way he has been behaving the past month he is fast becoming a RINO and I would appreciate you proving that wrong.
So because he votes with the GOP 85% of the time instead of 95% of the time and speaks out against personal attacks = He is a RINO?? This is exactly what is wrong with the Republican Party right now. They have jumped so far to the right that anyone who isn't with them on every issue or who doesn't believe the rhetoric of some helps they want thrown out of the party.
He has a rating of 89.79 from the American Conservative Union, but apparently, that's still too liberal for the base of the current Republican Party.

In fact, the ACU rates Graham as a "standout" conservative:

But hey, if you want to bash Graham for being a RINO, go for it. Keep driving yourselves into the ground!
