GLENN: Good. We have a couple of ways to go. I'm afraid, because we've been trying for a long time, I'm afraid that we're going to eat up our 15 minutes here and then I'm not going to get a chance to talk to you again and --

SENATOR THOMPSON: Well, that's not necessarily true. If I had known you were trying to get me that hard, I would have just overruled everybody. I would blame it on other people.

Well there's you're problem right there.Fred neds to fire his entire staff, apparently. They're obviously not working for him.

And what’s with his answer on Compean and Ramos? He rambles on about how they’re guilty, but maybe the punishment was a little too harsh and they’re “probably” subject for consideration for commutation. What about “HELL YES I BELIEVE THIS WAS A GROSS MISCARRIAGE OF JUSTICE AND THEY DESERVE A FULL PARDON IMMEDIATELY!!”?

Fred is proving he is not proactive at all. We need a president who can at least show Americans that he cares about the issues, and offer a bold vision, not a wishy-washy middle of the road "still testing the waters" vision. My enthusiasm for Fred dropped by half after reading this interview (but it’s still higher than Fred’s!). Thanks a lot for that!
