Lindsey Graham: Obamas Policies Getting a Lot of People KilledJanuary 8, 2015
Andrew Desiderio
When he left Iraq, he did so on a campaign promise. Hes trying to close Gitmo based on a campaign promise. His campaign promises are getting a lot of people killed. Our intelligence-gathering abilities have been compromised. The only way you can stop these attacks is to find out about them before they occur. Were reducing our military spending at a time when we need it the most. These policies driven by President Obama of being soft and weak and indecisive are coming home to haunt us.
He concluded by saying that because of President Obamas policies, its just a matter of time before America is attacked at home if an adjustment is not made. Graham expressed similar views on Wednesday when he told CNNs Dana Bash that journalists are soft targets in the wake of the Charlie Hebdo terrorist attack.

(23,946 posts)domestic attack so they can run to CNN and Fox unchallenged and say "I told you so" to the nodding propagandist talking heads that host them exactly for that purpose.
I love on the rare occasions when Gentleman Racist Lindsay and sadly senile John McCain are mildly challenged they turn into offended blubbering idiots even more than the usual.

Tell you what, Lindsey. There's nothing stopping you from getting a gun and a plane ticket and going over there to show us all how it's done. How about you actually put your money where your mouth is and actually do some work for a change?

Did Dana ask then how come the GOP is holding the homeland security budget hostage?

December 10, 2014
by Helene Fouquet
The leader of Frances anti-immigrant, anti-European Union National Front, Marine Le Pen, said that torture can be sometimes useful to fight terrorism, in response the U.S. Senate report on the CIA.
There can be cases -- when there is a bomb ticking, that can explode in an hour or two and kill 200 or 300 civilians -- where it can be useful to have to make someone talk with the means available, Le Pen told RMC radio and BFM Television today.
