I don't know.

Too upset to notify the media, not sufficiently upset to go to the hospital, not sufficiently upset to lose his appetite.

This was absolutely mishandled, and the worst part is that there was no reason for doing so.

Let me ask you, are Fitzwater, Fleischer, and McClellan wrong on this too?

Too upset to notify the media, not sufficiently upset to go to the hospital

I think that's a bogus argument; if he had called them first, not one word of what they said would have changed; it would have just been "Why weren't we there? We should have been there? You're so secretive.'

He shot a man; perhaps he needed some time with HIS family and friends before he faced the world; it's not my place to judge.

not sufficiently upset to lose his appetite

That's just catty.
