Interview with an American Citizen, Part Two:
NSC: What do you want to say to other folks out there who may want to screw up the courage to confront Graham and his
money?
AMERICAN CITIZEN: Don't be crude, don't curse, don't be shrill, but don't let him get away with spewing the same old vomit
in your face. Stand your ground and ask those pointed questions that need to be asked. If he doesn't answer your question,
tell him he didn't and make him answer.
When you tell him to enforce the laws we already have on the books and he tells you that they're not working, do like
I did. Tell him that they're not working because Congress and the executive branch are not enforcing them.
Don't let him get away with the patronizing sound bites and dancing around the subject. Call his bluff. Let him know
that he's a traitor and should be ashamed for what he's done and tried to do to this state and this country.
Let him feel the pain of those parents who've lost loved ones from drunk drivers or murderers who should have never been
in this country to begin with. Press him to respond to this.
When he says you can't deport 12 million illegal aliens then ask him why they would stay here if the laws were enforced
to prevent businesses from hiring them. Wouldnt they go home on their own, then?
When he talks about security, ask him what he'll say to those whose loved ones are killed by a nuclear device across a
border we could secure in a few days if Congress and the president were to take all proper action now.
Ask him if he's willing to list on his website all the business interests and other special interest groups that are paying
him to keep letting in more cheap foreign labor.
Graham is basically a coward. He's a tyrant seeking to entrench himself into D.C. so he can keep leeching the money out
of those who would trade silver for American lives and livelihoods.
I sincerely believe that someone with a record like Joe Wilson could walk right into that office. Anyone would be a fool
to pass up running against Graham right now.
If we're the true descendants of our revolutionary forebears, how can we allow the entrenchment of a traitor into one
of our US Senate seats?
AMERICAN CITIZEN: Can you believe the audacity of this guy?
NSC: I can believe his audacity--I just can't believe anything that comes out of his mouth.
AMERICAN CITIZEN: I've heard him described as a "corporate whore"--
NSC: I think that was on a YouTube video, wasn't it?
AMERICAN CITIZEN: Yep. The press has been cute calling him and some others, "mavericks." The way to be a maverick
is fighting the present administration on the issue of amnesty as Senator Demint has been doing.
NSC: You told Graham that "people are dying because of illegal immigrants." Were you specifically referring
to the recent killing of three college students by illegal alien gang members?
AMERICAN CITIZEN: No, not really--not just them. People have been dying for decades from the actions of illegal aliens.
Folks, they're not supposed to be here! We have too many dangerous people in our own citizen population. We don't need any
more!
We don't have to be the relief valve or dumping ground for Mexico or any other country. If we were letting them bury
nuclear waste here we'd be up in arms. More folks are dying or otherwise suffering than would happen from radiation in such
a case.
We are suffering unnecessarily. Not only is there violent crime aimed directly at citizens, but there are, as pointed
out in your "Declaration of War on Illegal Immigration," citizens dying from accidents, disease, drugs coming across
the border and so on.
NSC: Why do you think the border's not closed for, if for no other reason, the importation of dangerous and instantly
addictive drugs?
AMERICAN CITIZEN: We've had this "War on Drugs" for what, twenty-five years now? What's it got us except corruption
in our police and sheriffs' departments and a near police state in some counties?
NSC: Does the Fed think that method is better than stopping the drugs at the border?
AMERICAN CITIZEN: Well, for some money-hungry police departments and the drug dealers and the rehabilitation industry
and the elites who want their recreational drugs, maybe, from their viewpoints, it is.
For the Feds, at least, it seems that stopping the dangerous drugs and dangerous criminals and other folks illegally coming
across our border is less important than making sure slave labor is available to businesses who pay the politicians to think
that way. I can't help but think some drug money is making its way to Washington, D.C. as well.
The common citizens are suffering mightily from these imported drugs: especially methamphetimine. It is instantly addictive
and can quickly debilitate and kill after reducing the humans using it to little more than animals in their behavior.
If there's no sympathy for those reckless enough to abuse such drugs, then what about their children and their other family
members? Certainly there is sympathy for the victims of violent crimes by some of these drug abusers. The community suffers
and we all pay the price.
NSC: Quickly give us what you said to Graham in your confrontation with him:
AMERICAN CITIZEN: I first told him, "Deport them now!" after he was talking about the necessity (he now pretends
to believe) of having a secure border. He objected to that idea of course.
We can put a man on the moon in less that a decade but it's just plain impossible to enforce the laws Congress has passed?
Graham said something to the effect that it'd take too long to accomplish.
I told him, "Get started on it now!"
After he started with more objections, I asked him the question on the minds of reasonable people everywhere: "Why
won't you and the rest of Congress just make the executive branch enforce the law?"
No substantial response to that one--he was attempting to ignore me. I asked him again, "Why don't you just enforce
the law?"
I finally got an answer: "The laws don't work!"
Of course the only truthful response to that inanity was, and I gave it, "That's because you're not enforcing them!"
He stammered and stuttered at that point.
NSC: You told him at one point: "People are dying because of the illegal aliens." I noticed that he was unable
to respond to that one, either. He just looked away and kept lying about something else.
AMERICAN CITIZEN: He's not saying anything about those murdered by illegal aliens so what are we supposed to think? Does
he have a guilty conscience?
Would he, at least morally, have to accept some of the responsibility for their deaths? I think so.
Just today I got a multi-fold card in the mail from Graham where he's telling us how he's going to secure the border and
how the measure was passed in the Senate 89-1.
He's been in the Senate nearly five years and JUST NOW, when he's getting in trouble, he finally comes up with something
his constituents want?
For someone who is a "maverick" and does what he wants instead of representing the people who elected him, all
of a sudden he's sticking his finger in the wind? Too little--too late, in my opinion!
How can we trust him? He's stonewalled and voted to negate such measures in the past. And, with the cooperation of the
executive branch, they can pass all the laws they want and they'll never get implemented.
We don't need any more laws, anyway. That was the whole point of my confrontation with him. The ones we have are not
properly funded nor enforced. Graham is just trying to get re-elected.
We've seen absolutely nothing to show that he's changed nor that he will change. He'll do just enough to get re-elected
and then he'll start running for vice-president again.
We can't trust him. He ran as a conservative representative of South Carolinians for the US Senate and then became John
McCain's running mate. From there, he became the US Senator representing illegal aliens over the interests of South Carolinian
citizens and other US citizens.
He's a lawyer and a lawmaker who does NOT respect the law. He's a US Senator who does NOT respect US citizens--even the
ones who voted for him.
He doesn't care what the cost for us, the common citizens, is in human lives and financially if he can get millions from
business interests all over the country and manage to manipulate a new political faction--as if they'd vote for Republicans
anyway.

10/01/07: Interview Update:
***************************
NSC: Well, there you go again! Y'all gave Graham a hard time at the Okra Strut Festival. Graham got mad and yelled at
you, calling you an "idiot?"
AMERICAN CITIZEN: Yeah! How many voters are called idiots--in public--by a U.S. Senator? Coming from the likes of him,
I'm honored to be so thoroughly hated.
NSC: Why do you think he got so upset?
AMERICAN CITIZEN: Look--like I said--I'm a nobody, a nothing. Why does ANYthing I have to say upset him?
NSC: Tell me.
AMERICAN CITIZEN: Because it's the TRUTH and he doesn't want the TRUTH sticking to him.
Calling him a "traitor" in public accurately brings attention to his treason in the Senate. He wouldn't care
what I said if it weren't true. I would not say it if it weren't true.
It's not me that upsets him. It's the truth that upsets him. He's running from the truth as hard as he's running for
reelection. If the truth catches up to him, he knows he's finished.
NSC: You got under his skin.
AMERICAN CITIZEN: Yeah! He looked foolish up there yelling at me. I thought it was hilarious. At that moment I realized
victory in our little encounter. He showed his true colors.
I suppose the same little boy who will get in front of the U.S. Senate and cry for terrorist detainees and illegal aliens
will also show other emotions as well--especially his spoiled brat temper.
NSC: Do you think he will apologize?
AMERICAN CITIZEN: He's too arrogant to apologize to a nobody like me--just as he's too arrogant to admit the truth to
the voters of South Carolina.
He'll continue to lie and hope no one notices. However, I think that South Carolinians are too sharp for him.
NSC: When is your next appearance?
AMERICAN CITIZEN: That depends on where the traitor shows up next.
You know, if people realized how much fun this is, everybody would be doing it.
Writing and calling him are exercises in frustration. Getting out there and protesting him and calling him a traitor
in public--THAT'S relief for the frustrated voter!
