If anyone knows about disastrous foreign policy, it’s Graham. Graham and other neocons only have one tool in their foreign policy toolbox, and that is war. That hasn’t worked out so well for the US the past 50 years or so.

Because ms lindsay and his best pal jony mc, are the two kings of disastrous foreign policy.
They never met a conflict that they didn’t want US troops in.
The one note wonders. Send in US troops. That’s it, that’s all they’ve got.

The mere fact that Lindsey thinks war is a synonym for “foreign policy,” from which it follows that any foreign policy that doesn’t involve blowing brown people into itty bitty bits and sending tens of thousands of young men and women to be welcomed as liberators before being killed, maimed, brain damaged, or psychologically wounded, is surrender to the Scary Bad People, is, of course, no reason to believe Rand Paul is in, the slightest degree, sane or correct.

Graham indicated that he was closer to both Clinton and President Obama since “even Obama is more aggressive” than Rand Paul.
“Rand Paul is behind Obama, not just Hillary Clinton,” Graham said.
And so it begins…In 2008 and '12, the Republicans went after Obama time and again by claiming he was worse than Clinton. They later touted Clinton’s record as proof Obama is terrible. Now it appears we’re heading into the age of “Bill Clinton was better than Obama, HRC is worse than Obama, and X is worse than/agrees with all three.”

Wow! Judging from the picture, Lindsey is working himself up to challenging Mitch McConnell’s senate leadership in a titanic struggle for male dominance culminating in a colorful display of head-to-head,pendulous, wobbling wattle shaking. Amazingly, serious injuries to either male are rare as such behavior is ritualized; the defeated male slinking off into the senate cloakroom to recover his dignity.

Miz Lindsey, on the other hand, would have a foreign policy where we always depend on the kindness of strangers.
Did he scream about Benghazi while he was at it?

Discerning Lindsey Graham’s policy position on anything is like trying to hold sand in your hands - it just slips away. He vacillates between “getting the vapors” and offering meaningless quips. It’s all empty, empty, empty. There’s no “there” there!

Ha! As if McConnell or Graham has ever possessed even a scintilla of dignity…
I am not sure I like Paul’s foreign policy any more than I like Graham’s. Both seem to be hopelessly outdated. One wants a return to the isolationism following WWI and the other wants to return to the violent internationalism of the Crusades. Neither has the foreign policy chops for the next 8 years.

It hasn’t worked so well for the U.S. as a whole. But it has worked out extremely well for the military industrial complex (which makes oodles of money every time the U.S. gets involved in a military engagement somewhere) and for politicians like Senator Graham who leverage voters’ fears to win re-election.
If it was up to Sen. Lindsey Graham and Sen. John McCain they would have our nation in Constant War. Along with lining their pockets from Weapons Manufacturers.
Good to see that the pants-wetter wing of the GOP will be well represented this election cycle.
There’s a non-pants wetting wing of the GOP?
Disaster? Why, no sir. It is a Dis-ASS-tuh!
It is springtime in the northern hemisphere, much display and posturing at the lek…
Good point. Some foam at the mouth; some talk out of their asses. There’s a lot of crossover.

Look at Huckleberry Closetcase’s™ (trademark: CCP) home state, hard to turn anywhere without running into some form of the military.
Closetcase is the one with the rainbow tail-feathers.
Paul, Graham, McCain, Felon (Christie) , Krazy (Cruz)…all of them should thank their Lucky Stars that there is no Military Draft.
Had there been one, not one word of neo-con ramblings would have even been thought about, let alone said.
