On Sunday’s (March 3) Face the Nation, Bob Schieffer contended “extreme” anti-tax Republicans are holding rest of the party “hostage,” asking Republican Senators John McCain (R-AZ) and Lindsey Graham (R-SC):

“Do you all feel that your party is somehow being held hostage? The President has talked about kind of a ‘common sense caucus,’ and we hear reports this morning that he started calling around, calling some Republicans to see what can be done. Are people on the extreme ends of your party holding the rest of you hostage here?”
