Lindsey Graham (R-SC): Americans tired of Obama crap & spin. YEAH! Bush never spun crap. Or Cheney.


Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) -- energized and animated on ABC's "This Week" on Sunday -- announced that the American public was tiring of the "crap" and "spin" offered by the Obama administration in an effort to get health care passed.

The South Carolina Republican appeared shortly after White House senior adviser David Axelrod suggested Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.) was being disingenuous for criticizing a health care bill that resembled the one he supported in Massachusetts.

"The interview I just heard is spin," Graham protested. "I thought the campaigning was over. Are you trying to tell me and the American people that Scott Brown, got elected campaigning against a Washington bill that really is just like the Massachusetts bill? The American people are getting tired of this crap. No way in the world is what they did in Massachusetts like what we are about to do in Washington. They didn't cut Medicare when they passed the bill in Massachusetts. They didn't raise $500 billion on the American people when they passed the bill in Massachusetts. To suggest that Scott Brown is basically campaigning against the bill in Washington that is like the one in Massachusetts is complete spin."

2. Shameless effrontery
their strategy is simply to pretend the last 8 years never happened, stamp their feet, ratchet up the rhetoric to 11, and count on the ignorance and short-term memory loss of the american voters.

and i admit, it's a pretty relistic strategy.

8. Graham says this AFTER Axelrod has left the studio
When danger reared its ugly head
Lindsey bravely turned his tail and fled
Brave, brave, brave, brave Sir Lindsey
