Oakland, CA Congress Membe Barbara Lee Responds to GOP Senator Lindsey Graham's Endorsement of Permanent U.S. Bases in Afghanistand
“I am appalled by Senator Graham’s comments supporting the indefinite presence of U.S. armed forces in Afghanistan. “Both the House and Senate
have passed, and President Obama has signed intolaw, on multiple occasions, legislation including provisions I authored prohibiting the establishment of permanent U.S. military bases in Afghanistan. “Rather than advocating for a permanent extension of the costly and counterproductive military occupation of Afghanistan, it is time to finally end America’s longest war and bring our men and women in uniform home.
“I will continue my work in Congress to ensure the United States lives up toPresident Obama’s pledge that ‘we do not want to keep our troops inAfghanistan. We seek no military bases there.’”

This proves beyond the shadow of a doubt that Lindsey Graham is bought and paid for by the corporations making money off the Afghan war.
