Lindsey Graham actually said...

"Both China and Russia are significantly increasing their defense spending."

"It is also time to end the perennial threats of sequestration and place the Pentagon's budget on a general upwards path in real terms."

"The one thing you do not want to do, Mr. Chairman, is have the enemy miscalculate and entice them to make mistakes that could cost us all by not being ready to meet the challenges."

"We are on the low end of defense spending, but we are on the high end of the threat matrix."
