As I think about Graham's attitude it makes me think he wants to continue with
military action due to the presence of all the bases in his state..what peace
might mean to his state where the economy is largely supported by
these bases...the link below shows the bases in SC..other than this
the only thing I can think of is that he is a jerk and a bully...
