12. Yep, he always does the throat clearing just before he is going

to lie instead of just giving a non-answer answer. It is a clear warning "Don't believe what I am about to say", lol.

14. he asked Chertoff and DHS for a report TWO YEARS AGO

and they just got it!!!

"it shows (the report) SUCH vulnerabilities"

He can't read from it because it says "For Official Use Only" on it.
