    Senator Graham says he’ll break no-new-tax pledge for cliff deal

    Senator Graham says he’ll break no-new-tax pledge for cliff deal

    “I signed it in 2002, and I’m not signing any more pledges,” Graham said. “I’m just going to take an oath to the Constitution. I ain’t signing no more pledges.”

    Does Senator Graham know that an "oath" to the Constitution means actually obeying the Constitution?

    Then I guess he wants to enforce the Constitution's own version of mandating a balanced budget and return gold and silver money to the country?

    He already broke the 'no new tax' pledge by voting for more debt and thereby the inflation tax

    I'm looking for a new third party to emerge. This new party will be led by those heroes who have the courage to cross the isle and work toward bipartisan solutions to our nations problems.

    Of course, it will be led by those with a proven track record. Graham, LIEberman, Hatch, etc.

    Oh wait, they already have a party.

    Perhaps we should send him a copy of the Constitution from RPFs with a letter saying "We saw your quote in the GreenvilleOnline.com article about your oath to the Constitution. Since it seems you've misplaced your copy, we thought we would send you one to remind you what you took an oath to."

    As far as memory serves me, Graham has never had a serious challenge in either a primary or general election.

    It's a good chance he will run in 14. The only risk to be considered is getting your ass kicked in the primary which could hurt his chances in 16 (which is a seat he can take without as much effort)

    The Constitution doesn't mandate a balanced budget. All it says about the budget is that all spending and revenue bills must originate in the House of Representatives.

    The "no tax" pledge will be difficult to keep. The reductions necessary will require more revenue (not a popular option but they won't be able to get enough deficit reduction without it). No new revenues, then we "go over the cliff" and everybody gets hit with higher taxes anyways. Taxes will get raised or taxes will get raised.

    Graham said. “I’m just going to take an oath to the Constitution.
    And then violate it.

    "Shut up! You don't get a lawyer!"
    Based on the idea of natural rights, government secures those rights to the individual by strictly negative intervention, making justice costless and easy of access; and beyond that it does not go. The State, on the other hand, both in its genesis and by its primary intention, is purely anti-social. It is not based on the idea of natural rights, but on the idea that the individual has no rights except those that the State may provisionally grant him. It has always made justice costly and difficult of access, and has invariably held itself above justice and common morality whenever it could advantage itself by so doing.

    Shocking! What do his buddies McCain and Lieberman have to say? His other buddy Rubio was probably clever enough to never sign a tax pledge.

    First sentnence

    Lindsey Graham, "Thou shall not speak ill of other Republicans..."

    $#@! you Lindsey, you hypocrite. You have no problem speaking ill of Ron Paul or true conservatives. Better yet, how about the FIRST AMENDMENT:

    Freedom of SPEECH "Unabridged" which crushes your BS propaganda to protect your Lying Progressive Ass.

    Do they have sore loser laws in SC? Because I could honestly see Lindsey as the type of guy who would pull a Lieberman and run independent in the general election, and court Dems to help him win.
