Lindsey Graham Rolls Eyes at Rand Paul

As Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell tried to wrap up debate on the National Security Agency’s surveillance program early Saturday with a series of consent agreements, Sen. Rand Paul wasn’t the only Senator in the spotlight.

As Paul objected to a proposed, Sen. Lindsey Graham could be seen rolling his eyes on the Senate floor. Paul responded to the “eye roll” caucus of senators Wednesday, after the clip was circulated by multiple media outlets.

“If I’m going to slug it out Sunday with the spy state apologists, I’m going to need all the help and support I can get,” the Kentucky Republican wrote. “Unfortunately, it seems the President, the senior senator from Arizona and other members of the ‘eye roll’ caucus who can’t stand any mention of the Bill of Rights are all operating out of the same playbook.”
