I know I'm coming late to this party, but I did not get to watch C-SPAN until I got home from work tonight. I am listening now to the testimony of Carl Ford on the confirmation hearings on Bolton. Ford (who is a Republican) has said at least twice, "he reamed him a new one." (Referring to Bolton doing the reaming.)
I am now hearing Kerry question him, and it brings back (for me) all my hopes and dreams that Kerry would be elected. Sorry, but I still love Kerry. He would have made an excellent president. Our Country will suffer for the re-election of Bush. Listening to Biden now; he is excellent. Says Bolton "shaded the information."
Carl Ford says, "I'm too old, too tired, to be worried about my next job. And I am very much at peace with that. Some of my executives are not that free, because there is retribution. My republican friends are surprised at what I am saying now. Say nice things or not saying anything at all. "
I love this guy. He is an honest, honorable man, putting party aside.
