Id she the women that was grilling the Treasury Sec. about how much the war was going to cost? It was so pathetic, he kept responding that he had no way of knowing and didn't even know where to get that information. She was indignant and acted as if HE were the idiot. When she was done, the head of the commmitee thanked the secretary for atempting to be sec of state, defense, and treasury all in one. The whole commitee erupted with laughter.

She was so angry and said, "You may find it funny that the secretary doesn't know how much the war will cost, but I don't." How can you be a representative and lack basic understanding of how the government works? Maybe she should take a civics class.

I recall seeing that, it was an abomination the way she spoke to him. You would have thought she was scolding some bum in the gutter.
