Come on guys, get real. Get real, these guys knew where it was and even if it was gone before, which I doubt that it was, ask them the question, you’re tough reporters, ask them the question, who did you have there guarding that facility? Why the hell didn’t they know it was gone back when we went in? This makes me angry. My kid and a lot of other kids might get their ass over there and get blown up by these because of their civilian incompetence. And they’re talking about John Kerry was somehow unreasonable suggesting that this is incompetence, come on. If you think I’m upset, I am.
