The Laurens County Republican Party (click here) has become the fifth county party in South Carolina to censure U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham.
The county’s executive committee passed a 29-point resolution Oct. 29 in favor of censuring Graham. Laurens County joins Chesterfield, Fairfield, Greenville and Orangeburg counties.
The motion to censure passed 7-4.
“This reflects the continued frustration of many in the party with officials who are elected as Republicans and then seem to forget the doctrine of the party when they assume office,” said a spokesperson for the Laurens County Republican Party....
It isn't as though Republicans in Laurens County are completely happy with the Democratic President.
From the Facebook Site:
"I have been broadcasting for 31 years and writing for longer than that. I do not recall ever saying on radio or in print that a president is doing lasting damage to our country."
A few of the points in the censure are:
Senator Graham’s attempt to reward those who break the laws of our country with amnesty.
They oppose Immigration Reform. Perhaps some of these counties need a strong 'in your face' Pro-Immigrate Movement.
The continued support the senator offers in the arming of elements of Al Qaida, sworn enemies of the United States, in the Middle East.
The Syrian Crisis. There is no clear opposition and there won't be. It is noted the disintegration of central authority in the Mideast. The factions of militias are to protect their neighborhoods basically. They aren't interested in a central authority because of the problems they have caused before. The 'default' setting for these countries are 'tribal authority.' They reject and seek to destroy central authority. Central authority is a Western function of government. The militias come together when a threat is greater than one militia can handle; ie: Syria.
Benghazi was the first brush with this default setting in the Mideast. At no point in time has the USA or any other major power run into such acceptance of a diffuse central government. What Ambassador Stevens ran into was the rise of the 'militia government.' He didn't recognize it because he was focused on influencing democracy to work for the people. He believed Benghazi was a place to instill the democratic principles. Little did he know the people had already reconciled themselves into local militias where they had control of their day to day lives. Benghazi could not have been prevented, except, if the USA was completely absent to the government structure there.
The USA government conveniently lives in denial of the truth of their imposition of values on the Mideast. It is that generational denial that caused the deaths in Benghazi. Al Qaeda grew out of the local understanding that a central government was a puppet to The West. The people of the Mideast have longed believed The West was the problem, so in that lies the current tribal movement in North Africa and Syria. Denial will kill. Absolutely. The West's politics have to be dispelled of it's dysfunction. I believe that is what Chancellor Merkel is awakening. To allow the USA live in denial of global discontent is very dangerous.
There is a sense of righteousness within the problems The West is experiencing in the Mideast. The West assumes it is always THE BEST way to go. A strong central government has brought about a higher standard of living, however, the people of a nation have to consent to it. The people of the Mideast don't consent to it.
The only right The West has is to find allies and allow those allies to fight to change the quality of life of the people, ie: Afghanistan and Iraq. It doesn't work, it is not sincerely the will of the tribal authorities and that is the power the people recognize. The tribal authority is tied directly to their relationship with God. The West is never going to change that. Fighting for territory is innate to these tribal authorities. When the USA enters the fray they are simply another authority seeking territory for their own purposes. No one recognizes that as a legitimate definition of the governing of the Mideast? I mean for real, you all don't get it?
That is what makes nucelar technology so dangerous. It is why non-proliferation is so important. The West and Soviets always assume sharing technology will result in strong allies with central authority forever. It is myth. The Soviets or as known today Russia are just as guilty as The West in living in denial of the diffuse authority in the Mideast. Creating 'Saddams' is the way The West has imposed it's demands for trade of oil. The 'Saddams' were the manifest of Wall Street through military proliferation by The West and the petroleum industry. Take or leave it, the facts of the matter are clear.
North Africa and any rise of strong militias is a direct threat to Europe. To that end France maintains it's vigilance to the stability and/or any growing threat to Europe and acts to prevent and/or end that threat. Europe has a right to do that. Russia ran into that same threat when they went into Afghanistan, but, all the USA saw was a chance to undermine an expansion of Russia. Now that the USA has had enough of fighting the tribes Russia will resume their stance to prevent threats to it's borders and otherwise. It is the nature of the beast. Surely, everyone understands the importance of understanding that concept. No?
The best route to a central government in the Mideast of any country is through the five pillars of Islam. Generosity and benevolence. When the central government PROVIDES a quality of life to the people, the people will seek that benevolence. Ask the Saudi King how he does it. Hasn't anyone noticed the most prospering Mideast nations have central authority that provides incredible favors to their people. Dubai stands because it doesn't seeks to destroy it's tribal identity to the people. Dubai is extremely generous to it's people. They are wealthy has hell and can take care of their people.
What happened in Iran was going to happen in Iran. Does everyone believe The Shah was actually viewed as the real leader of the people? Seriously?But, The West in it's denial of sincere authority in Iran ended up with hostages for 444 days. Hello?
How many examples has to be flown in the face of The West before they finally 'get it?'
Nuclear proliferation in the Mideast is nothing more than a profound tragedy waiting to happen. Nuclear annihilation of ethnicities will occur if the technology is allowed to proliferate weapons. The hated is too deep and the alliances with God to profound to expect that inevitability to be denied. This is not about politics, it is about peace, non-proliferation and quality of life to people so they value their lives. The West has to love the people as much as The Saudi King and the Princes of Dubai love them. They will die for their God. They subscribe to that path. The West has to live with that reality and stop killing them. They have to be allowed to govern themselves into benevolence.
His belief that government spying on American citizens without due process is an acceptable practice.
The Patriot Act and the overreach by the NSA.
The disregard he showed for other Republicans in their attempt to prevent further erosion of our second amendment rights.
Pro-gun rights without respect for life.
There is a mixed focus, some are extremist views while others are anti-war. Basically, these are the Libertarians.
