De mortuis nihil nisi bonum, goes the adage of the ancient Romans that every schoolboy knows. Regrettably, in the case of the recently departed Senator Lindsey Graham finding laudatory words is a nearly impossible task. George Galloway was on point in calling Graham “a perfectly revolting specimen, and a poor excuse for a human […]
