I take it my colleague from Kansas was not at the business meeting when the Bolton nomination was discussed. My colleague from Kansas was not at the hearing where the Bolton nomination was discussed. I do not know if it would surprise my colleague to note that in the business meeting, other Senators, not the Senator from Connecticut--this issue of intercept was raised again by another Senator and a similar question was asked. So it is not just the Senator from Connecticut who raised the issue during the questioning of Mr. Bolton. But, in fact, during the business meeting this came up again and again. I presume my colleague from Kansas must have been informed of that, to raise the level of concern he has.
