re: #224 cliffster

He didn’t make a huge issue of the bullet in the office. He said that people in Congress get threats and that it’s unacceptable. He then said, I’ve gotten threats, a bullet went into my office this morning, and that he’s received threatening emails in the past. It’s not like he held a giant press conference about getting his office shot up, which is what a lot of people seem to think.

I really wish he hadn’t gone into Democrats “fanning the flames” by blaming Republicans for the threats. I liked a lot of what he said in his statement, but I wish he’d just left it at “let’s quit this blaming each other bit - we all get threats, and it always sucks”.

So your argument is that if the bullet wasn’t found in his office the press conference would have been held anyway? Bull. Shit.
