LOL!!! Sen. Lindsey Graham: "We really did go too far. We screwed up. BUT..."

[kpete]

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said he was "proud" of Boehner's handling of the crisis. Then within moments he pleaded with Democrats to bail out the GOP, which he admitted has "screwed up" and "really did go too far" in the shutdown and debt limit standoffs.

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

6. That is unbelievably rich especially coming from Lindsey Graham...What a piece of work

Now its the job of Democrats to save the Republicans from destroying the economy by giving them something so they can brag that the beat the Kenan Marxist in the White House? Go to Hell, Lindsey.

7. Says Graham in his best impression of Blanche Dubois

Hes a freaking US Senator, he's not playing Blanche Dubois from Streetcar named Desire and he is not dependent on the kindness of strangers.

He needs to fight for a clean bill if he believes the GOP has overplayed its hand.

9. He's john mccain's little shadow. Waiting to see what mccain does before he can do anything.

8. What we have here ... is a failure to communicate.

Stand firm, and we lose our credit rating. Give in, and we lose the rule of law. Fuck you and your self-respect, Mr. Graham.

10. THEY screwed up but its OUR response that is the problem?????

Poor Lindsey...he could not pass the first 3 questions of a Mental Status exam.
