I read this on one of the news sites online. It struck me as, I dunno, an odd thing to say:

Ummmm...thanks Tommy, for that vote of confidence. Then again, I wonder if it was just his way of taking a little shot at the administration on his way out. Didnt ol Ashcroft say something about we were safer now and had become more secure or something? Oops...hey Ash-hole...you forgot about our grub bub.

I just dunno where this country is currently or what direction it is going. I just dont....
