New blog targets Sen. Lindsey Graham


A new blog, called "Dump Lindsey Graham," was created by a South Carolinian known only as "Fed Up in SC," who writes an open letter on behalf of "the people who elected you":

We will start with a basic truth: you are not smarter than the rest of us. ... You are not intellectually superior to the folks in Central, SC, or South Carolinians in general. So, stop, STOP, telling us that we just don't understand. We DO understand. We understand very well. We understand that we elected you to represent us in Washington, and you have, so far, failed miserably to do that. ...

You have comitted the cardinal sin of a politician: you have begun to believe your press. You listen much more closely to your handlers, and DC insiders, than to your constituents. The public outcry you hear against you in South Carolina is not a small, organized minority. It is the voice of the majority begging you, pleading with you, to fulfill your promise and responsibility to the people who elected you:

Please represent us.

"Fed Up in SC" is apparently one of those Republicans shocked by Stephen Dinan's Thursday report in The Washington Times about Mr. Graham conferring with Sen. Edward M. Kennedy on the Senate amnesty bill. As Ralph Z. Hallow reported Friday, this is inflicting damage both on Mr. Graham and on Arizona Sen. John McCain's presidential campaign in South Carolina.

Yes!!! Go get him!!! Can you recall him? He is not looking out for you, but for his own political promotion. Don't let him slide.

South Carolina - I hope you view this with pride - and you have given us the South's version of Teddy Kennedy, or closer to home, Lindsey Graham.

Throw the bum out!

Regrettably, Lindsey Graham has demonstrated that he is not representing those who elected him to office if he is willing to sell out in this manner so that he might secure a position in a (highly improbable)McCain administration. NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!

Let's not forget this when he runs for re-election.

The Senator didn't do much of anything for veterans when he was a member of the House, he has done less than anything in the Senate. Designing new tee shirt to display.

LTC Lindsey Graham AKA Senator Lindsey Graham does not properly support veteran issues!!

Hope to see many more comments against Graham. I can't believe him. Wish someone would set up a site for Martinez. I want him out of office in Florida. Thanks for the opportunity to express some frustration with these politicians who think they own this country.

I am considering selling my home in Georgia and moving to South Carolina just so I can vote against this R.I.N.O. in the '08 primary.

Let't all send Lindsey a message in the GOP primary and vote for any other candidate than John McCain!

What happened to Lindsey Graham? He used to be on our side.

Welcome to the fight, from those of us in Southern California who have been trying to shine the light of truth on this for the past twenty years. Isn't it nice to have your votes cancelled out by illegal aliens signed up for the Democratic Party by La Raza and Ted Kennedy, and Lindsey actually called him, to find out which way to vote? Nice! This is just the first round, to see what is next, Google La Voz de Atzlan and read what is next. Keep your powder dry people, you have not seen anything yet....

I don't know why the turncoat doesn't just go ahead and cross the aisle and get it over with.

I do believe the general population is beginning to awaken. I would love to see a nation-wide uprising which led to cleaning the scumbags out of our Congress.

Keep getting the word out about how these Senators speaked with forked tongues.

I don't know who Fedup in SC is but I have a feeling it's a woman. I read recently there's a lady in SC that's really ticked off at Goober.

Wonder if she has anything to do with this sign?

I am a life long conservative. LG is just more proof that the Republican party has lost touch with its base.
