It is time to start preparing to oust Lindsey Graham as our senior senator. His blustering on the Senate floor concerning the filibuster to block John Brennan for CIA director was embarrassing and shameful.

He reeks of lobster, steak and photo ops with our present administration while our junior senator and congressmen work to help our country solve our budget problems and to ensure our president doesn’t have the authority to kill our own citizens on our soil without arrest, trial or conviction. His rants were repulsive.

He suggests that his service with the National Guard as a lawyer makes him an authority on military matters. That is laughable; he has never served a day in harm’s way. I guess he thinks that flying all over the world at taxpayer expense and protected by the finest fighting men and women in the world make him an expert. By the way, he voted for John Brennan while stating that he was ashamed of our senators for filibustering his nomination.

We have until November 2014 to vet someone and get him or her ready to make a run against Mr. Graham.
