Lindsay Graham reflects on how Democrats would respond if Republicans treated a Dem president badly.

Here's a decent snippet of Graham's gaggle (argument?) with reporters on lynching. Bottom line from him: "The story here is not the word, it’s the conduct of Democrats in the House."

It's more like, "How dare you ask us questions? How dare you inconvenience us in any way?"
