Graham Questions Dems' Patriotism

It actually happened! A Republican questioned Democrats' patriotism! Here's what Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina had to say on "Meet the Press" yesterday:

<<<

Tim Russert: Waving a white flag [in a Republican campaign ad], is that appropriate?

Graham: The '06 election is going to come and go. Iraq will be still a problem after '06. I don't think it's appropriate. Howard Dean is wrong when he says we can't win. It doesn't mean he's not a patriot. Murtha wants to leave the region and deploy outside of Iraq. I think he's wrong, doesn't mean he's [not] a patriot. John Kerry wants to cut the force by two-thirds. I think he's wrong, doesn't mean he's not a patriot.
>>>

Hey Lindsey, you forgot to mention that they support the troops!

In fairness to Graham, his fellow guest, Madeleine Albright, raised these questions before he did. But in any case, who cares if the Democrats are patriotic? If a man bullies and belittles his wife, does this mean he doesn't love her? Not necessarily, but whatever is in his heart, his behavior is still wrong.
