CHARLESTON, October 14, 2013 – Nancy Mace, candidate for U.S. Senate who is running against Lindsey Graham made the following statement today:
I believe Obamacare will inflict serious harm to our economy and the quality of healthcare in America. In addition, the added burden of the individual mandate and the complete disregard for individual liberty tear at the fabric of what it means to be free.
Long term, Obamacare will be the undoing of our American way of life. I feel very strongly that we must reverse this terrible policy by using every possible tactic at our disposal; defund, repeal, and legal challenges must all be on the table. We cannot allow beltway pollsters to scare us into surrendering on this defining issue of our time.
Lindsey Graham stated over the weekend that he was “dangerous.” It’s good to see Sen. Graham joining the rest of the nation in frustration with Washington. However, the truth is Sen. Graham is a real danger to the conservative republicans he is asking to surrender. He’s also a danger to taxpayers, small businesses, and those who respect freedom.
Graham said yesterday, “To my Republican colleagues: let’s embrace reality. We can’t delay or defund at this moment.”
Also, according to Politico, “Graham was one of several Senate Republicans who made their way to Boehner’s officeon Friday afternoon, where they warned the speaker that House Republicans should cut a deal with Obama or they would.”
Senator Graham is a long time dealmaker on Capitol Hill. It’s time he quit trying to act as if he is fighting for conservative principles, when, the reality is, he’s not.

“Dangerous” is the justification of shutdowns and defaults to twist the arm of America into making its government give up on a policy or break its arm for not obliging.
Graham is a complete douchebag and should be thrown out of office, but the last thing we need is someone who wants to spend us into oblivion and strip us of our rights to be replaced by someone who wants to burn the house down trying to get their way. As I feared, Mace is no different than any of the other loonies who want to risk plunging this nation into another recession just because they don’t like some piece of legislation. While we may not have to worry about her scaremongering her constituents by telling them brown people are going to sneak in a nuke through the Charleston harbor, we will instead have to worry that the real nuke will be her devotion to thuggish tactics that could irreparably harm this country.
Fucking fantastic. Well, no to Graham, no to Mace, no to Bright, no to Cash. Might as well toss my vote onto the woodpile of whoever else might be running, be it Democrat or third party. Maybe that will keep me warm for the next six dismal years while Graham sits on his throne.
“…brown people are going to sneak in a nuke through the Charleston harbor…”
Why would they go to the trouble of getting on a ship to sneak through the Charleston harbor when they have been doing it for generations across the porous Mexican-American border?
Easier to put a nuke in a container than carrying on your back.
Also after lugging the nuke across the border on your back your calves would be the size of watermelons. Dead giveaway. I learned this from Steve King a very observant republican politician.
Speaking of illegal immigrants, King said, “For every one who’s a valedictorian, there’s another 100 out there who weigh 130 pounds — and they’ve got calves the size of cantaloupes because they’re hauling 75 pounds of marijuana across the desert.”
A nuke of devastating size can weigh less than 20 lbs. and fit in a suitcase.
Go take your Anarchist activities back to Soviet Union where they came from.
The GOP gets more extreme by the day.
Long term, Obamacare will be the undoing of our American way of life. [REALLY? THE REPUBLIC CAN’T SURVIVE? THERE GOES THE BILL OF RIGHTS, CAPITALISM, SEPARATION OF POWERS, A STRONG MILITARY …] However, the truth is Sen. Graham is a real danger to the conservative republicans he is asking to surrender. [“REPUBLICANS” IS A PROPER NOUN. THIS AGAIN.] Senator Graham is a long[HYPHEN]time dealmaker on Capitol Hill. It’s time he quit trying to act as if he is fighting for conservative principles, when, the reality is, he’s not.[WOW, HOW’S THAT FOR SYNTAX?]
It’s teawhargarble.
The ignorance of these teabagging fucking assholes is astounding. Mace thinks by jumping on the crazy train she is going to have a ride to the Senate. Just how fucking stupid do they think South Carolina voters are? Wait…don’t answer that. They are pretty fucking stupid but it’s my guess even they aren’t Mace stupid.
Can that slackjawed cuntessa Mace tell us exactly how allowing millions of people access to healthcare at a reasonable cost is going to destroy the fabric of America? It might hit some of this teafucktards political donors in the pocketbook since they won’t be able to deny coverage simply to increase profits but you know what? FUCK THEM! And FUCK YOU MACE teabagging fucking idiot.
Dammit, man, quit beating around the bush. Tell us how you really feel!
Great Idea…who is going to pay for it?
“To my Republican colleagues: let’s embrace reality.”
Does this mean Ms. Lindsey is coming out of the closet?
Same crazy eyes as Bachmann!!
Clearly not ready for Prime Time.
I believe Nancy Mace will inflict serious harm to our economy and the quality of healthcare in America.
I voted for Barak Obama in order to get Obamacare.
The last time I checked, he won the election and our Congress passed Obamacare.
Long term, Nancy Mace will be the undoing of our American way of life.
I feel very strongly that we must reverse Nancy Mace by using every possible tactic at our disposal: take away food, water, cosmetics, television, automobile, cell phone, Kindle, country club memberships — all must be on the table.
We cannot allow Nancy Mace to scare us into surrendering on this defining issue of our time.
Thank you very much.
Ms. Mace (Mrs?);
Very nice statement. I appreciate your concern as I too believe Obamacare to be a plague upon the citizenry of These United States of America. As is Senator Graham a pox on our house.
I avowed to a particular voting path 5 years ago. That path, to vote for the evilest liberalist most communist politician I could find. You are beginning to change that perception as being the best course of action to rid this country of the filth that calls itself ‘leadership’.
At the time of this writing I see that the regular HufPo/Sorros crowd has come in voraciously in an effort to undermine your statements. I find solace in that. Coupled with the apparent fact they have sent a few drive by agents to assault you as well intrigues me.
Most importantly I see, regarding Obamacare, you have failed to use what I term as the current filthiest relative term alongside Repeal. Replace. This has truly garnered my interest in researching your positions with zest. I have seen all of the other candidates plying Repeal and Replace, typical of the current inherent mindset of the old guard. Your lack of comment to Replace is refreshing only in that you are not currently supporting it. I hope that you will soon have the courage to rebuke it in its entirety.
Bravo and Well Spoke. Thank you for your interest in helping to bring demise to the USSA and to lift the hope of the people that do and desire to continue to live in These United States of America.
God Bless you and yours.
Have a Great Day!!

With “Individual Liberty” should come “Individual Responsibility”. If you choose to exercise your right to not carry health care insurance hospitals and doctors should be free to refuse care.
For example, if you ride a motorcycle in SC and choose to exercise your right to not wear a helmet the taxpayers (though the medical care system) should be free to refuse you taxpayer funded care when you sustain a severe head injury.
I find that most self proclaimed libertarians want it both ways, they want the freedom to not wear a helmet if they choose but also want to be free of the consequences of such actions.
Ah, well. So, Unless I have insurance the hospital should be able to reject me. That argument lends itself to those refusing to accept gold or cash should be closed. Hmm??
For someone you say is the more electable of the Graham challengers, this screed has all the depth of a third grade “how I spent my summer” essay without any of the excitement or cuteness.
Coming to a Senate near you soon if Wil has anything to say about it: Frankenstein, Tonto, Tarzan and Mace.
Obamacare bad. Tear at freedom. Lindsay Graham bad. Cut deal. Fire bad.
But Lindsey Graham has been *saying* he’s for freedom, which, when you kind of look at it, he’s totally not. But I should be your senator since I’m a conservative republican which should be on capital hills, since I graduated first from the Citadel as woman and know the constitution. THE CONSTITUTION.
Sounds like Nancy is parroting Reagan’s paid by the AMA 1961 diatribe against the plans for Medicare, which has since built many a McMansion for MDs and hospital administrators.
Deal making = compromise = what produced the US Constitution Miss Nancy and her ilk CLAIM to revere, but show contempt for every day.
From Sinclair Lewis’ 1935 novel ‘It Can’t Happen Here’ :
“But he saw too that in America the struggle was befogged by the fact that the worst Fascists were they who disowned the word ‘Fascism’ and preached enslavement to Capitalism under the style of Constitutional and Traditional Native American Liberty.”
please let me be relevant please please please
yawn.
MACE,
JUST SHUT UP!!
Dear Nancy Mace campaign crew and K Street lobby advisors,
We highly suggest that you all take a look at this article….
http://www.charlestonscene.com/article/20131015/CS/131019621/1177/skinful-moves-to-music-farm
Considering the demographics that will be electing and voting for Nancy to un-seat Lindsey, how should this article be used to inform Halloween “voters” of how Lindsey Graham uses laws to benefit electricity rate increases or benefit contractors in Afghanistan.
Look at this paragraph alone…..
“……. The event could not be held at Brick House Kitchen due to an 11pm James Island noise ordinance passed in 2012. Dolphin Cove Marina a very industrial non-populated area in the City of Charleston denied a permit due to there 11pm noise ordinance. The town of Meggett gave Skinful Halloween LLC the business license and the town administrator said “bring a poster to town hall and we will help you promote”. At this point we have a 70 acre farm, insurance and the town of Megget business license. Now we decided to start booking talent (Flavor Flav, Ozomatli, Dirt Nasty, Blowfly and many others). The event then becomes public gets promoted and tickets go on sale. A week later we get a call from The attorney for the town of Megget and charleston county zoning saying that town of Megget made an error giving us the license and we will have to have the property rezoned…….”
Now….sit back and think of how Lindsey Graham operatives can BLOCK large voter turnout at a Halloween Party because Nancy Mace volunteers want to pass out flyers. Just think how Sic Willie sees all those “Graham flyers” being passed out at USC Football games on Saturday. Nancy Mace can do some economic math to underscore just how much MONEY is not being spent due to “political ZONING issues”. Boone Hall sure does have “fright nite” permission. We wonder how Mayor Swails State Farm lobby benefits Graham’s campaign. CHa-CHING..!
Dear Wil Folks WIFE,
WOW, your husband does a great job in getting a good picture to attach to this article. We wonder just how much advertising loot could be garnered from a Nancy Mace interview at “SKINFUL” this year. How would this video interview be tagged to this website to be USED to wall paper Lindsey Graham on Obamacare and immigration issues?
Considering that you are Wil Folks “QUEEN”, is it not imperative that you make moves on your chessboard to spring for some new “shoes” and college education funding for the family. This is all out WAR and you need to be fighting MAD. Your “King” must be advancing at all times and this article is clearly an example of “squatting”. YOU are vital to the success of Fitsnews so keep the tip of your whip moist. These types of articles are a classic example of WHY your electric rates are where they are at right now.
Mrs Folks…..we highly suggest that you coordinate a nice party and invite Nancy over for a chat.
Dear Lindsey Graham…..
When you read this article…
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2461194/Afghanistan-governor-Arsala-Jamal-killed-bomb-hidden-microphone-mosque.html
How could Nancy Mace use this copper mine corporation to tie your donors by the gonads..?
Lindsey……………your GOING down…..
Dear Citadel Students, Alumni and “professors”,
We highly suggest that you review your cyber curriculum. Matter of fact, what type of informational awareness are you teaching at the Citadel. Considering that there are so many “students” using this website properly, is it any wonder that the troops your students will one day lead on a field of battle have no CLUE what they are fighting for.
How many political observers who read this very article sitting in Walhalla and Shandon ever stop to consider just how many Citadel informationalists even care to read this website. How many lobbyists in Columbia and Georgetown care to ask themselves if Nancy MAce was this smart to associate with Fits then how many other Citadel “pawns” are that SMART..?
We highly wager that many SPAWAR Atlantic “pawns” understand exactly how to call a K-Street “taco stand”…!!
Know what I think” tears at freedom’s fabric”…….batshit crazy Republicans telling women what to do with their bodies….No doubt you Ms Mace, being a woman, agree with me.
Where’s the cleavage?
