This guy must have been totally brain washed when he was at U.T.Austin. Teddy is up now and I'm sure they will bond.
Please, Gates, point out that this is nothing like WWII. Please enlighten the old sot.
". . . when he was at U.T.Austin . . "
WHAT????
FWIW, Gates is much-loved in conservative COLLEGE STATION, where he has a reputation for straight-shooting, look-you-in-the-eye, getting things done. No way is he saying, "We're losing, let's go home."
He's saying that a problem needs to be fixed, and, based on his track record at Texas A&M (the university with the barking dog mascot, not the cow), he can get the job done.
You guys take a deep breath. Gates and Bolton are cut from the same cloth. Pragmatic, tough as nails, and extremely competent.
He is president of Texas A&M
