I would not be able to stop thinking about that, every day I was at work there. I hope the security there is the best available anywhere.

Oooh-Rham just sniped at Paul Ryan-talk about snapping at the hand that reaches out-he pretty much said screw everybody and let me do this myself. He is now being compared (badly) to the Gov of Wisconsin and Ronald Reagan in similar situations. Be careful what you wish for...
