I thought Lindsey Graham was playing it cool - the arrogant abrupt dismissal is a step up in civility from normal DC mud wrassling manners. While I was at EPA and my father was at Treasury, we would come home daily feeling outraged over the mental and emotional warzone in which we worked. Senator Graham was so laid back and cool, like Marcus Aurelius. . .not. .

Martha Ture ; That does not sound like a desirable job environment! Insufferable people!

That's right. And that's why there's so much animus and gridlock. The war zone emotional atmosphere makes you get up and gird your loins for battle every day. That's why the younger fools like MTG et al come to Washington to do battle, instead of to govern. They are elected by fools who do not understand that their work is to care for the nation's best interests in the remedial, present, and future. We were almost all doughty staff and miserable managers.
