Ah, so they're going to concede the issue? Too bad. I would think that hiding amongst the women and kids while you shoot might give them a problem claiming GC protection.
But, "falling all over themselves"? Somehow I can't imagine that from Rummy, or any other Bush people. Is that how you phrase it when someone you don't like does something they should?
