"We really did go too far. We screwed up." [View all]

"We won't be the last political party to overplay our hand. It might happen one day on the Democratic side. And if it did, would Republicans, for the good of the country, kind of give a little? We really did go too far. We screwed up. But their response is making things worse, not better."

- Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC).

You feckless bag of fuck.
